sorry one more video for the TL. perks of living in Vancouver is occasionally running into these guys on your commute

WHAT

yakuza kiwami 3 is an insult to the game rgg has purported to remake, its players, the studio's previous quality output and, bewilderingly, women. oh, and the casting of an admitted sex pest. i'm somewhere between dejection and fury. my review for vgc: www.videogameschronicle.com/review/yakuz...

2026 is the year we all get into Kakao again. time to relive the 2014 hallyu wave

every company wants to hoard data so badly, gorging themselves on it. they don't care why or what to use it for. don't even care to maintain it. just to hoard and sell access to anyone who can buy or get in.

> Discussing his new role, Gaudechon said he intends to help Remedy scale in a way that "builds lasting value." things that read like a car going 120kph on a windy road in the rain

i dont think one thing should replace discord, i think like three things at minimum should replace discord. it being an All-in-One app has ruined so many parts of online.

it drives you insane how much erosion of freedom is justified by concern for kids when the people who actually hurt them will never face consequences

It's dire and I remember when being on the net as a kid was fun. It wasn't 100% safe but I do remember kid spaces that I loved. I checked girlsgogames recently. I used to play doll games on there all the time. It barely fucking works now.

"Teen-by-Default" is such a hilariously grim way to talk about your userbase like, usually companies aren't this up-front about how they think we're all dumb children.

99% of modern security products are just some company going "would you like this app that gamifies paranoia" and you going "yeag" like just don't do it. just turn it off

Orgs that care about real justice for survivors of SA are nowhere near this well-funded & even if they were they wouldn't spend that money on football ads! It's disgusting!

It stinks but any org with the cash to splash on a Superbowl ad spot is definitionally going to be opposed to any form of actual justice for victims & is cynically employing them as a wedge in service of Pure Evil

what if i just call it here. here's my oc, they have like 9 eyes and are an eldritch horror

bleh

marathon putting up a montage short of people dying and having a Bad Time is like, maybe the most out of touch I've ever felt about what people want from multiplayer games

Brush in hand, back to Picnic Province once more. This time, painting the world anew with the brush of sound. Entrusting a piece of myself to these resonant melodies of Chicory's soul brings me the deepest joy. Release day draws near... Let's share in that vibration together. 🎨✨

Death is coming! #deadlock

thinking posting a picture of a tanuki okimono with the huge balls and saying "transition goals" and letting the discover feed figure it out for themselves

Announcing Chicory: A Musical Tale! Releasing March 7th~ I'm delighted to collaborate with @resonantunion.bsky.social, Wishes Unlimited, and a host of talented collaborators on a 32-track arrange album releasing across four discs. It's a real dream project & I can't wait to reveal more!!

koyorin's merch is SOOOOOO good, check out their first lineup on their shop !!

in case you missed it, i just launched my first clothing collection yesterday; THERE IS BEAUTY IN PAIN, a series of metal inspired shirts! here's my friend @tsuaii.com's character mea modelling one of the shirts: BLOOM FROM ASHES available here!: shop.koyorin.com

High refresh rates are a scourge. You're at 60fps, having a great time. You see a 120hz screen, now you're ruined on 60. You glimpse 165, now 120 is trash. Some guy tries to show you 240, you shut your eyes, you don't open them til he's dead. You've killed a man now and for what

We have a lot of catching-up to do. It won't be enough to just start building cycling infrastructure again, let's build it faster and cheaper to create connected networks and spread the benefits to every neighbourhood.

Epic made provably incorrect statements about the game’s content, refused to provide details supporting their claims, and has not shared their claimed AO IARC certificate, which normally includes a link for the developer to appeal. They do not ‘love that studio’, they have effectively ghosted us

playing Straftat with the homies!!

playing the fun game of "am i depressed because the weight of the world is finally crushing my shoulders to a breaking point, or is my new medication causing mood swings". i don't recommend it, even if you're a fan of the genre.

we finally got up to the end of Season 5 of The Sopranos, which means i got to show Lena one of the best edits that's ever been made

i have 9 minutes to do all the work i wanted to do for the day wish me luck

🚨 NEW MUSIC!! 🚨 RUDE AND CRUDE FROM ME TO YOU #BandcampFriday

if my AI baby wrote a thinkpiece this bad i'd pray for crib death #FreeKyle

My new song is out on bandcamp today! Enjoy some raw, glitchy and melodic sounds 🎧🔊 #BandcampFriday sheofficial.bandcamp.com/track/syntax

being the racing game gal means i have to convince myself to spend CAD$60 to see if this is good or not and it seems kinda alright but it is the most early access feeling thing i've played in a minute and it is Sixty Dollars so idk. it's also a roguelite?? store.steampowered.com/app/1712100/...

Just gonna say since we're already talking about unionizing game writers: hey, maybe let us localizers in on those talks, too, because it's pretty fucking rough out there, even in AAA. I'd probably have three times as many credits if we were unionized and I'm one of the lucky ones with any at all.

Once again, it turns out “fully autonomous” means “a guy in the Philippines.”

working on ref sheet for new OC still and im going maximalist mode it's so fun to do graphic design with zero rules or restraints!! fuck a layout or template!! shit goes wherever i want it to

One of the master craftsman of small games still has the juice: www.jank.cool/i-cant-stop-...

i see making AI-generated slop games is going well

are you even making a videogame in 2026 if you are not timing your dodges to a big flash/sparkle animation and choosing among a set of heroes who each have a unique playstyle with upgrades

more R:RE later today at 2pm pacific!

"Deep in the South American jungle, four men come together to deliver a dangerous cargo. Playing both online or through Nintendo GameShare, you and up to three friends will balance, ford, and drive their trucks through perilous landscapes when SORCERER launches on Nintendo Switch Systems."

"why do you have to post and repost messages about the BDS boycott every time there's a new game announcement or set of trailers" because there's this weird phenomenon of active forgetting that Microsoft is a tech partner of one of the most heinous crimes against humanity happening on earth today

gonna assume this is step to follow suit with the attempts at discouraging immigration that the current government is taking. meaninglessly evil stuff. such a bummer.

im glad Control convinced games to stop being weenies and full-screen some title cards to make a moment hit. arknight endfield does it and it whips every time

ICE agents should be banned from FIFA World Cup events in Vancouver. Especially given everything taking place right now, this should be a no brainer. We hope all parties on Council will agree, and pass this motion. www.ctvnews.ca/vancouver/ar... #vanpoli
