2 video again, talking about the game that was almost really good if only it could have stopped slamming its face into multiple walls, seemingly on purpose.

The youtube algorithm is so cool because I can not upload anything for half a year and have 4-year-old videos pulling in 4k views a day but then I upload something and those same ones drop to 500.

These are all so good and I hope to one day own a VR setup so I can play that one too.

Been a couple days, so I'm waving this around again. 50% of a good game is still worth talking about, right?

Given the recent news about the Halo 1 remake, I decided to publish my big critique of 2 a little earlier than originally intended. I don't think I've ever played a game so dangerously close to being really good but so eager to stomp on its own toes.

Halo being remade for Playstation will be a great time for people to start to realize that maybe it wasn't the game they thought it was when they were 10.

Creativity and creation are not tasks to be shortcutted and solved. Everyone, and I mean every single person who finds any amount of value in these tools, is not and has no idea what it means to want to create something.

Hey PSA to my YT people out there but Auto-Dubbing using AI is getting automatically enabled on your channel and opting out of it is buried deep in the depths of your channel. Turn it off here: Settings > Upload Defaults > Advanced Settings

Got a game coming up soon so here's some reinforcements: Khorne Skullreapers! For how chunky they are, they sure are nimble on those tippytoes of theirs. I kind of wish more of them had their feet planted.

I'm being so real right now, learn how to engage in media as art and not a reflection of your own real life morals. consume things that make you uncomfortable and understand why it makes you uncomfortable. Don't just base yours and others morals standings on the media you consume.

Hey guys I have a solution: program the fucker to be capable of saying "I DON'T KNOW" In general I hate that "I don't know" is way way worse than lying now?? Bullshitting something and hoping you get away with it is valued more than admitting something is out of your league

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.

Youtube will deploy platform-shattering features like Restricted Mode with zero fanfare or explanation but not keep/add features people actually want, like annotations, community-created subtitles, or being able to subscribe to a specific playlist. Cool.

and after my entire time with it, I think I'll call it an excellent game dying under the crushing weight of genre-debt.

Having a newly-added song show up on shuffle in your main playlist is like seeing a rescued animal fully integrated back into the wild. A truly special occasion, every time.

If you tried to "fit in" by hating everything the internet told you to hate, you would end up forgetting how to enjoy anything. Maybe you'll finally fit in, only to find you're surrounded by those as miserable as you. Life is too short. If it isn't actually hurting anyone, enjoy what you like.

I really hate the term "sideloading". I preferred the original term, which was "installing software on a computer that you own"

"Wow, they're establishing the hell out that building" always comes to mind whenever something holds on a shot too long. And a big shoutout to "watch out for snakes!"

It must be, and I mean this sincerely, incredibly freeing to be handed the keys to a franchise like Alien and know that you cannot possibly screw up as hard as the original creator already has.

If you're using AI to write essays, eulogies, a text to your wife, I do think less of you as a person. Ceding your mental and creative abilities to a machine is an embarrassing thing and people should be ashamed to admit doing it in public.
