At a glance, it seems my hunch was right, that Splatoon Raiders will be the experience I've been waiting for the series to provide. I recently dipped back into Splatoon 3 and just didn't enjoy trying to compete in the main online, as fresh as the series is.

At TennoCon, we caught up with @willvoice.it and Elsa Pérusin, two-thirds of the Devil's Triad, to talk about the dynamics between The Old Peace's protoframes, becoming part of the Warframe community, and more:

After Kingdom Hearts I had zero interest to see the Winnie the Pooh characters again, but I have to admit I like the smaller DLC path system for Disney Dreamlight Valley.

CDs don’t make you listen to 10 minutes of gambling ads before playing 3 songs.

Furious that Chris Nolan would disregard historical accuracy in adapting The Odyssey by making a "movie" with "cameras" instead of memorizing the entire story and then going on a nationwide tour to sing it to us while tripping on ergotized barley

There is a way of thinking taking hold in this country — that building a stronger Canada means walking away from our climate commitments. Abandoning our climate commitments will not make Canada stronger. You cannot build a stronger country on the ashes of its communities.

Confirmed Idiot Has Bad Take

Uncle Owen would shit his pants if he saw me using this much water to clean his moisture farm

In my one brief trip to NYC, I appreciated finally seeing the city for myself after so much exposure to it in Marvel Comics growing up. NYC is an intrinsic part of Spider-Man's DNA, and many other (maybe *too* many) heroes besides. It feels wrong to see their HQ leave that city.

This book is: 😈 a Brimstone Angels sequel 💘 A love letter to my new favorite D&D troublemaker  🎨 Chock full of gorgeous art of the most iconic D&D villains. 🤔 An answer to the question: what is the structure of a book about people? (1/n)

I already felt nothing for the prospect of Star Trek MTG. But this Spock card starts out in "fanmade photoshop proxy card" territory and quickly hurtles toward "so out of touch it's kinda good" territory. (Tbc the art is fine, but something about this style on a MTG card doesn't sit right with me)

I’m unofficially calling this weather event “Wildfire Dougie” after our “esteemed” premier of Ontario.

[hearing myself stammer and stutter in a recording] Ah yes, right, one of the reasons why I got so into writing as a child

This is clearly a very, very bad thing for the industry... but at the same time, who wants to settle for slop, "vibe-coded" rip-offs of other games? I want games that feel intentional, made by passionate people, not some mock-up generated in a fraction of the time with none of the soul.

My kids outgrew this show long ago but I'd love to see a Very Special Episode of Paw Patrol where the crew stops game devs who pull this crap and makes them both apologize and reinstate the laid-off employees, just like Mayor Humdinger on another dumb stunt.

ARGATH: Ramza, your commoner friends are shit from a pigsty. I would sooner wipe my ass with my hand than acknowledge their humanity. RAMZA: …leave. I don’t want to see your face again. ARGATH: T-that is the meanest thing anyone has ever said to me. Your wounds are like barbs in my heart 😢😢😢

Saddened to hear my good friend the Finger Taker has passed away. I never agreed with him about amputating people's fingers in his dungeon, but I'll always remember the collegial good times, and most of all his great sense of humor. What laughs we had. Condolences to Ginny and his whole family.

Soulframe Preludes access is open now until midnight tomorrow, so now’s your chance to get in on the ground floor with this amazing experience!

#TennoCon day 2! Excited to see what’s in store for Warframe and Soulframe!

Ready for the TennoConcert!

Sure would be a shame if Game Pass subscriptions tanked...

Welp, there goes Ever Crisis. I would’ve bet it was going to be turned off on the same day Revelation dropped, but instead it’ll be just after the third anniversary.

Happy TennoCon week!

Just when you think this guy can't get any more embarassing, he digs out this wardrobe and says this out loud with his human mouth.

Negotiations are taking longer with Arkane because of "strict French labor laws" just means Msft can't do whatever they want in countries with reasonable protections for workers. Something to think about.

Xenosaga Episode III released 20 years ago on PS2. Monolith Soft posted this art to mark the occasion. Monolith Soft doesn’t own the rights to Xenosaga, but it’s clearly an important series to them.

It’s difficult to really comprehend what the the loss of 4,800 employees looks like. My previous employer had maybe 2,000 employees across every single brand globally. They’d have to wipe out everyone twice, and then some, to match this — generations of lived experience and work just gone.

Happy TennoCon week!

Who do I have to beg at Marvel to make this real?

I've never fully bought the "most physical games need a day 1 patch anyway" argument - it doesn't negate the fact that you have *something* tangible to show for your money. I may need an update after putting in the disc the first time, but then I'll always have something I can trade down the line.

Thoughts on PlayStation, Rockstar and most likely XBOX abandoning physical media for console videogames.

Increasingly, my reaction to everything in gaming news:

Times have changed, huh?

Also it's worth noting that this game already exists - it's called Final Fantasy Record Keeper, it kicked ass when the global version still existed, and thanks to it, Square Enix has at least half of the material they would need to remake/demake FFVII through XV in pixel form

I hate that it’s a brand account making the statement, but they’re on to something

The feeling of finding a new independent bookstore with a great selection near the family cottage:

This may be worth braving the awful currency exchange and shipping rates Canadians are subjected to. Talk about a sacred Jedi text 🤤

By most reasonable metricts you'd count Destiny 2 as a success - it more than made back its development budget, grew a dedicated fanbase, ran for nearly a decade. The expectations of shareholders, and how much money they make, do not actually equate with what "success" means for a game

I was at a small talk recently where devs noted that the average career in the industry lasts about five years, and much of current employees' work is picking apart former colleagues' work, going "how'd they do that?"

I'm going to start incorporating "a reduction in _____" into my lexicon to make things sound better.

The Game Key Card leans back in its chair. It glances at its cigarette, takes a deep drag, exhaling towards the ceiling. Its eyes look towards the viewer. A half smile appears. "Guess I ain't so bad now, am I?" It chuckles, rises, and leaves.

What a middle finger to physical collectors and retailers.

The first Canadian company to create a non-subscription based Photoshop that doesn’t use AI and doesn’t violate privacy will be HUGE. I’m rooting for you, wherever you are 🫶🏻
