After having finished and loved Bananza, I'm hopping into Silksong and it feels like coming home. I love how the game makes it immediately clear to me that it wants to frustrate me if I'm not more careful than I was in the predecessor.

If it's any consolation: I didn't have this game on my radar and through this debacle now I do and I'll def jump onto that horse (bc the game is called horses haha jokes). So I hope this thing gets Streisand-effected to great success.

The modern world is just pro wrestling and a gambling addiction standing on top of a mechanical Turk.

Analgesic has been a huge inspiration for me. Their games are always something very special

Twitter had to turn off its location feature within hours because thousands of prominent and "verified" MAGA accounts turned out to be foreign and I think it's hilarious that Elon was the one who exposed them all

Björn Balg alias "Speckobst" ist seit vielen Jahren Spielejournalist, meinungsstarker YouTuber und Podcaster bei Ink Ribbon Radio. Sein Arbeit begleitet mich schon lange, nun endlich habe ich getroffen & mit ihm über prekären Spielejournalismus & Leidenschaft geschnackt: okcool.space/zwischen-gre...

Randomly got the patrick star game from the library bc my 7yo mentioned it. Expected it to be your standard spongebob platformer, but no, it's basically a janky, messy, spongebob-themed goat-simulator-like, and what an exceptionally good fit this is?

Finished Bananza and found it pretty peak. The finale was one the best gaming things 2025 probably likely especially for somebody like who grew up on repeatedly playing the og DKC.

ATTENTION SPEEDRUN FANS‼️ I accidentally bought AGDQ tickets on the same day I'm supposed to get married & they cost me $2,000 (plane, registration, hotel, etc.) If anyone wants to go take my place for FREE it's going to be at the St. Marys church his name is John he's 5'10 super nice guy

Dear lefties/everyone. As much as I hate AI, don't shame people for using it. It won't change minds. It won't change the world. It'll only alienate people who have any number of valid reasons to be convinced, persuaded, or pushed to use this technology. Educate, empathize, but don't dunk.

I'm not saying there's never been a better time to pirate rockstar games instead of buying them. But that sequence of words is in this post somehow anyway.

I have realized something about the mustache. A power I hadn't recognized before. I basically have a one-time-use instant fountain of youth in my face. Right now I look my age, mature, obviously ruggedly masculine in a Bob Burger kind of way. If I ever shave it? BOOM, 10 years off the clock!

when I was young, i used to wonder how people like this would fare in life, as they didn't seem suited for gainful employment. it turns out, the internet allowed them to accumulate a massive audience of similar idiots, enriching them and turning them into a presidential advisor

mr president sir theres a story coming about how you intervened to help a sex criminal. no sir, not that sex criminal you helped….no not that one either…sir, please stop guessing sex criminals that you helped. ill give you a hint sir, hes a trafficker. no sir, not that trafficker a different one

It's not normal for a professor to start a class discussing how they "regret" being best buddies with a child sex trafficker and asking them for advice on how to abuse their position to coerce sex from former students. He shouldn't be there at all. This is an institutional failure.

Two things can be true: 1.) The Game Awards are meaningless and we shouldn't take them all that seriously. 2.) Award shows of its scale DO rewrite the mainstream history of the art form, whether they deserve to or not, and its okay to care that it's so thoughtless despite having that responsibility.

I feel like "You're playing as Raiden actually" should've become an industry-wide in-joke. It could happen anytime, in any game. Halo 3, ZING, you're Raiden. Metroid Prime 2, BOOM, it's Raiden. Snake joins Smash, lol NOPE it's Raiden. What? Charizard is evolving? Yup! Charizard evolved into RAIDEN.

This is powerfully embarrassing

Ladies, Gents and all between and beyond. Desert Bus 2025 is now departing for fun, joy, hijinks and a whole lot of hope! Let’s prepare to get silly for a good cause! desertbus.org

Eurgh. It's not even cutting corners. They just decided to not have artists involved at all and just used whatever they could squeeze out of an image generator. There's a whole set of Generic Ghibli Style ones in there too. This is Call Of Duty, the poster child for budget excess in AAA. So tacky.

One of my favorite things about #BlakeManor is having conversations about people who are standing not even a meter away. There's a lot of (unintentional?) comedy gold in this game. Mild spoilers.

Imagine going as hard at trying to lick your own neck as this guy does.

Done with #StrayChildren. Went straight into my list of favorite games of all time. I have so many thoughts and feelings, it's truly grand. Rarely have I experienced something so bittersweet. Be kind children and your inner child. Watch it carefully as you grow Older.

Again, to every videogame writer who wrote funny emails to read in an immersive sim/etc. where I rolled my eyes and said out loud, "lol like anyone would ever email something this on the nose", again, sorry, I was wrong, life sucks, you nailed it

Dunno if @oniongames.bsky.social is already aware of this but there's a softlock in the Gastrobaron fight in #StrayChildren If you're outside the light cone when the treasure drops, you're stuck in the shadows.

The bizarre foreknowledge that there will be people in the future unironically nostalgic for... *checks notes* Italian brain rot

Panera’s moderately caffeinated lemonade was loosely associated with 2 deaths before it was taken off market. This article alone has 4 examples of ChatGPT encouraging young people to commit suicide, and OpenAI’s own public stats estimate over a million users discuss suicide with ChatGPT each week.

Hopefully this video will help you see how fucking ridiculous you sound when trying to chastise Black people who hurt your weak ass feelings.

I love how uncomfortable she made that room.

Bluesky sorgt einfach dafür dass ihr diverse Dinge gar nicht mehr sehen könnt. Lest den Guide mal durch. Bei mir war alles auf "Ausblenden" obwohl ich das nie eingestellt habe und so wie die Moderation Dinge markiert waren zB viele Linke als "Extremisten" ausgeblendet.

If you're wondering how this will go Square Enix handed off their mobile Octopath game to NetEase who immediately started using ChatGPT to translate everything resulting in text like this. When players complained they started asking fans to fix their translations in exchange for in-game currency

Captain Torture

Sorry, I cannot take this new Resident Evil game seriously, given how they haven't stylized the "q" in Requiem as a 9 in any of the promo materials I have seen so far. Like.. folks... it was right there!

Oh right, it's #movember, me dongus. Fellas: get your prostate checked, open up emotionally to and with your friends, consider therapy if you feel like the world and everything is too much. Don't lash out. Be kind. Broaden your horizon. You got this! Also. Of course. The mustache STAYS!

Harry Potter x Fortnite coming in Chapter 7 (In other words, Fortnite is adding a transphobic authors work into Fortnite) #Fortnite #FortniteNews

Very important factor to this

I have seen more posts about baseball on bluesky these past 24h than I ever did in over a decade on twitter, wtf?! Was there like a baseball war?

Sex worker here, and while I appreciate the sentiment what we advocate is not legalization, but decriminalization. Legalization is consumer protection. It removes 100% of the liability from consumers and places it on workers / sellers. In the context of narcotics this has meant that your average

Gamers. Do yourself a favor and get #StrayChildren. I'm an hour in and can already tell, this is gonna be a special game for me. And it's not just bc of the Kafka, it also has a lot of emotional honesty, weird characters, and big themes going on.

The complete inversion of morals on the right is not surprising but it's still shocking. Imagine being on the side of intentionally starving children.

hit with deep melancholy knowing i just spent all day sitting at home working on a video about a game that means the world to me that maybe 100 people are gonna watch fully

I tried selling my games digitally though Amazon years ago and their back end stunk, a great big unintuitive mess. I made about $100 total. I sold more copies on the Ouya! But I never got paid for those before they shut down, lol.
