Leave reviews for Steam games you like. Liking and subscribing helps video creators. I'm not saying to stop doing any of those things.

But the point of all this shit was to help the audience find things, and now the expectation is you have an audience already and it's THEIR job to spread your work

It's why press must always ask 'Okay, what the fuck do you mean when you say 'AI' here?' at any and every turn. Force them to elaborate and be specific rather than rely on the buzz-word.

'Gen AI' is a useful shorthand of differentiation, but it still sucks that we've lost the battle on language.

The complete conflation to the point of meaninglessness, wherein most don't know what is being talked about/alluded to when 'AI' is involved, and the very emphasis on it being dubbed 'AI', a sci-fi idea, when it's all rote Machine Learning...a marketer's dream, really.

Deliberate deadly scheme.

i think its more a creative mindset than it is anything to do with games inherently beyond the fact they evolved as a) kids toys and b) an arm of the post reagan tech industry, and we've already seen it bleed into books and become very popular (litrpg/progression fantasy slop)

more games writing thoughts, adjacent to but not really in the discourse: i do think a creative and artistic process that primarily centers player agency is inherently one that produces bad writing

I love the idea that the only thing holding back gay liberation were insufficient numbers of horny straight women fantasising about two conventionally attractive masculine men kissing
sorry but i think a bunch of fujos going “we all went feral over the gay hockey players kissing so it’s fine if gay hockey players come out now. this show will change the world.” is both grossly fetishizing and woefully naive.

it’s also just fucking cringe

The about mainstream mlm/BL/yaoi media is that the discourse really doesn't want you to think about how weird it is that an outgroup dominates media about queer male romance/sexuality. The only rebuttals to this are "it's inherently misogynistic to criticize women" and "gay men aren't people"

And my second caveat in response to a lot of responses—this isn’t an argument that men being lonely isn’t happening. This is an argument that loneliness is not exclusive to men and that the reigning discourse around MALE loneliness is really about unmet expectations for women

there is so much art out there to be made, and sometimes you are tempted to put it off until you "feel comfortable doing it justice with your skill". however, multiple people collaborating on a work helps "make it exist" while everyone learns and sees pieces of their vision come together

one of the most important missions you can have as an uma watcher/player is making sure that not a single young fan is lured into actual horse race betting because I can assure you plenty definitely have been tempted
i love uma musume but it is admittedly a little bit funny that swathes of people who did not touch gacha for completely justified and understandable reasons & ethical issues mainstreamed the gacha game that is also directly tied to horse race betting. i like nice nature and manhattan café

beating a dead horse but part of what makes art both worthwhile to the creator of it and interesting to the beholder is that you can’t actually beam ideas from your head into exactly what you imagined that way when you make it yourself, and the left turns and fingerprints are all part of it

It should be said often that being inspired by anime/manga as a writer is great. You still have to read books, though. Manga and light novels don't count.
