A full English translation patch for Koei's Progenitor, a 1994 visual novel/RPG/strategy game for the PC98 that plays a little like Uncharted Waters....IN SPAAAAAAAACE.

I let myself have long breaks from Like A Dragon/Yakuza because there's so much you can burn yourself out, but when I come back it's always so good.

Next week the House E&C Committee is looking to run something of a shock and awe campaign, debating at least 19 bills that they say are related to "protecting kids online." Most of which are actually about censorship and control. Don't buy the framing. It's always the same damn thing.

Literally saw a video pass through my youtube recs a week ago with the thumbnail "STEAM - THE GOOD MONOPOLY" because a decade and a half of people self-propogandizing has had effects.
seeing people being like "ehhh Idkkkkk horses DOES sound kinda icky, I get why it was banned" like barely 2 months after a bunch of people kicked up the wildest possible hostile campagn against _itch_ makes me feel like I'm losing my mind lol

'Horses' doesnt contain anything more shocking than some well-known horror movies but because it's a video game, which people increasingly see as Content Delivery Software instead of art, people are confused by this

i think in this day and age more should be made that a regular book shop in your town has out there on the shelf books about sex, abuse, hate, gay shit, graphic violence, that one hitler wrote etc, and they're all there on the shelf unlabelled and unsupervised and society has not collapsed

one of the things i keep thinking about with the steam situation is booktok/tube discourse about whether books have too much porn now (they call it spice which i just can't you sound like duncan idaho) and if there should be enforced labelling or a rating system

Playing Like a Dragon Infinite Wealth and recalling how many people complain that there aren't big budget turn based RPGs who basically slept on this game and its prequel.

IGN is paying attention to censorship again. Use their momentum, call visa and mastercard, tell them you read the article, ask them why they're censoring legal stuff

reminder that you don't need to know specifics of what's at play. It's often better to sound like a normie

they're a total black box. some suspect games get approved just fine some innocuous games get trapped in the hell dimension and no one knows why. the only consistent themes is if you have anything even slightly gay you're playing russian roulette on hard mode

a few posts on the steam thing are referencing how there's tons of anime porn on steam and that is technically true but also they will ban japanese games or visual novels if they're having a bad day or the humours were misaligned on tuesday or whatever

Speaking of which, the second theme for the development of Feedback was the idea that we could make a game without doing any overtime. Naturally, it was an abysmal failure.

symptom of a sick society that the popular gaming service "Steam" has official tags for "roguelike deckbuilder" and "extraction shooter" but not "virtual pet" or "burgertime clone"

The Dragonlord fight in DQ1HD2D feels like kind of its worst balance excesses. It's extremely luck based but also extremely attrition based, just miserably tedious.

ChatGPT feeds me reams of bullshit, but good news everyone, I'm not going to remember it anyway
Relying on ChatGPT to teach you about a topic leaves you with shallower knowledge than Googling and reading about it, according to new research that compared what more than 10,000 people knew after using one method or the other.

note this wants to increase the time to *settlement* from 5 to 10 years.

not citizenship, merely the right to reside in the UK without a sponsoring visa.
For those of you in the UK, especially if you are a UK citizen, can you please take part in the consultation on changes to Indefinite Leave to Remain (Settlement) that were just proposed by the UK government. We need as many people as possible to reject these proposals. www.gov.uk/government/c...
Earned settlement
The government is consulting on how the current settlement system should be reformed and how those reforms should be implemented.
