Very weird feeling this time around thinking about my end-of-year lists, it'll be the first time since a friend of mine passed where we'll no longer be able to comment on each other's choices. Fitting there's an Uchikoshi game on mine this year, I wish he'd gotten to play it.

Sheffield christmas market music moving from Sum41 right into A Spaceman Came Travelling seems like a bold choice, yet very specifically targeted at me

Berseria kicks ass and has one of my favourite moments in the entire franchise but definitely wasn't expecting that one as a remaster choice. 2017 PS4 game and the 2nd most recent mainline entry? You should still play it though, I'll sit here still waiting for Abyss 🙏

like i am not going to devote a fraction of my brain to being upset for longer than a minute, but this says about all you need to know about the legitimacy of TGA's awards at least as it applies to music

I wrote more words about how it feels to be a translator watching the games press report on AI and labor, coming from a field that's fought these battles for decades. It may look like I'm beating up on one outlet, but it's not about them; I've been trying to write this for me and my peers all year.
You Can't Report on Hunger While Taking Bread Off the Table
On the proliferation of machine translation in video game outlets covering the effects of AI on labor.

all the best windows software in history is called something like "joe's thing doer". it does the thing and nothing else and is available on a html website in plain text and takes up under a megabyte of space and uses default windows ui elements and will work until the heat death of the universe

All done with No Sleep For Kaname Date! I enjoyed once again playing as everyone's favourite disaster of a human, bouncing between dirty jokes & genuine emotion (that 2nd somnium got me good 😭) and ending on a full-cast dance number. These games are perfect. No notes.
