In my experience a boomer shooter can be as niche as it wants and still be met with success cuz it's singleplayer, but fighting games take two to tango. I think a lot fewer people are willing to take a chance on an indie FG when they're thinking "Who would I even play it with?"

Might have also rewired my heart??? I dunno, I came out as trans a few months later after some introspection.

I played Funeral Song for the Elemental Lords last year at your recommendation and it rewired my brain.

I roll my eyes so fucking hard when people try to act like being AI is an extreme response. IMO it's a far more mild than AI pushers deserve, the proportional response would be to dismantle the data centers by hand.

Crypto as it currently exists is posed against the interests of the average person IMO. There is a hypothetical alternate universe where it could be cool but we don't live in that one. I don't believe that under the current conditions there can be a benevolent implementation of crypto.

"HEY GUYS DID YOU KNOW THAT BLAZBLUE ON PC COMES WITH AN ARTBOOK WITH SOFTCORE PICS OF RACHEL AND PLATINUM?"

Yes I did now eat this fatal counter Bullet 5C and take 80%. I do not give a shit.

Me recreating the same goddamn female tiefling warlock over and over again since high school yet somehow not putting the pieces together until 3 years after I graduated COLLEGE

Heard he started writing the paragraphs on the back of each one explaining what each one was in braille after the incident with the seeing-eye dog.

I really like "losers who got way more threatening once they started chasing the salty runback"

And not to cast too many aspersions upon him or Pat or Woolie, but it feels like 99% of the time they start getting uncomfortable with "anime bullshit," a woman is usually involved. Like damn all three of you are dads now, stop acting like you've never seen boobs before.

Or Max Dood screaming his lungs out like an ape over anime game supers while simultaneously being embarrassed about liking anime and masking it by talking shit about any anime game that he doesn't perceive as tough and manly.

When other people work on Star Wars, they're contributing to 'Star Wars, the cultural artifact.' When George Lucas worked on Star Wars, he was playing with his dolls and showing them off, and I think that's pretty cool.

I don't know if this is a hot take, but even if George Lucas is an idiot (which I don't necessarily agree with), even his flawed works are much more enjoyable and ensouled than most other people's takes on Star Wars.

People who act like gameplay is just an obstacle to pad out the narrative make me want to strangle them. Game mechanics are FUN and INTERESTING to engage and struggle with!!!

Yeah I think that sucks ass but I don't think it's any sort of systemic queer-to-queer violence thing, just the usual ignorance and fear, everyone's capable of that. We're not born with an inherent sense of solidarity or advanced ethical theory just cuz we're queer, so it's not that surprising.

And also this fuckin weirdo

Ain't this the essay that all the rapists start reciting when they want to try rehabilitating their image?
