frame generation is a capital pathology, totally avoidant to address the realitybreaking promise from publishers and PR of higher and higher fidelity graphics. studios cant/wont pay to develop these games, existing hardware doesn't have the power to run them, gamers don't have the money to play them

«En el terreno del bajo presupuesto fue donde las propuestas enraizaron y brotaron de forma más vigorosa. Fue en las películas de zombis, robots y monstruos del averno donde proliferaron algunas de las reflexiones sociales más radicales y transgresoras.» 🔗

I recently compiled and gave some historical connotations behind one of the most important Mobile Suit Gundam doujinshi Circles, Let's Play Around With Char. Their origins, imprints and legacy have been documented in a new section. (R18 warning!)

New Games and Culture! I especially want to highlight Leland Masek's piece on identifying playfulness. His work on playfulness is foundational! (I'm his supervisor, so I may be slightly biased.)

Game professionals form coalition to 'push against the dehumanization of Palestinians' "The dehumanisation of Palestinians is tied to their rare visibility in the cultural sphere. This dehumanisation costs lives–as the world remains indifferent to the ongoing genocide in Gaza."

What beautiful hope we can generate together - our dear friend is coordinating food parcels for the influx of displaced families in Mawasi. They are coming with nothing (and don't have any campaigns or income). So he's stepping up, and YOU can help.

Reconocer el estado de Palestina el mismo día en que los tanques entran en Gaza tiene el mismo tono e intencionalidad política que condenar los bombardeos de Guernica durante la guerra civil. Una manera segura, zalamera y moralmente rastrera de ponerse a tiempo en el lado bueno de la historia.

when bodies are treated as objects they are acceptable, however once the bodies have autonomy and find ways to express their own pleasure for themselves, it becomes unacceptable. the legality of sexuality in this country is dictated by who gets to enjoy it

Here's one you almost certainly haven't read... Internet Underground, a magazine on internet culture! We don't always collect off-topic magazines like this, but it crosses over enough with digital/gaming culture that we decided to include it.

Donate to mutual funds. Take a first aid course. Offer to help others with yard work or errands. Check in on your friends, family & vulnerable community members. Contact your senator. Help out at a food bank. Do not give up. The road is long & small positive actions ripple outward.

Me parece muy interesante que una obra como Frieren, que por incompetencia del autor ha propiciado lecturas desafortunadas en torno a su cosmovisión del bien y el mal y su asignación a determinadas razas, haya sido suficiente para que supremacistas se lo agencien como referente ideológico.

There was something really special about how 8-bit games would be enhanced by hand-drawn art found in guides and magazines. Pictured here is a segment from Dragon Quest IV: Chapters of the Chosen - Official Guidebook, 1990, detailing a mountain village.

The internet was never a perfect place, but at least a lot of these media companies gave a darn about kids and gave them safe, fun spaces to be fully entertained online. Alas, this generation will never have that experience. Maybe those that had these places will bring them back for the next one.

video game genre names are all pretty embarrassing but tbh my biggest real problem is we don't break down the techniques of those genres in even pretty simple ways. When you say souls-like, do you mean 'risk/reward on character death' or do you mean 'attack startup animations cannot be canceled'?
