welcome to 2026 we got uuuuuuuuhhhh torment nexus

... has there been a psyop to erase public libraries from cultural memory? when was the last time you saw a piece of media or news that had anything to do with a public library, even just a mention of one?

with the fruitfly brain thing I think we're gonna see a resurgence in the popularity of SOMA ... and a resurgence in the misinterpretations of SOMA >:V

i'm like travis touchdown but instead of a tiger my spirit animal eats trash and runs into traffic

I think one of my favorite tropes is like Something happens and the world begins to fray at the edges, supernatural events occuring as human behavior breaks down And the "something" is completely mundane like a 48 hour gas shortage

paintin' noise marines & making my own contrast paint mixes just to see if I can get it right should have one done soonish

'Misura stretta'

My motivation follows a heirarchy of "shit I really don't want to do right now" Having a blast painting models because I am so burned out on coding it's not even funny

Hypnagogia 1½'s demo will be out TOMORROW 💿✨ It's happening for real and you can't stop it

I'm very exhausted with the idea of disco-elysium-likes. The thing I cared about in DE was its narrative design and writing, not just its mechanics in isolation. You could explore all kinds of ideas from tabletop games and crpgs, but instead you choose to shamelessly pantomime what DE did?

my brain is popping and sparking trying to figure out how to mash more Bionicle influence into GE

i would rather go above & beyond for things I care about, and not because you have no idea what your own character looks like

the devs on this site are so mad this place is just the faggot forum instead of twitter2

Maybe this is a boomer-ass take but I play games to do stuff I can't do IRL I have no desire to play card games on my PC

"ahead on trends, behind on output" is just my motto at this point

i haven't listened to gorillaz in ages; I need to catch up

today I learned that low humidity isn't 70% but 30-40% oh

I guess I give off the "magical autismo" vibe cuz strangers will just tell me the worst shit imaginable at the drop of a hat "this christmas music sucks" "yeah, kinda like that one time I exposed myself to a busload of children from my front porch"

i love mold but I wish it'd grow on stuff I'm not trying to eat

... I wonder what the sweet spot for # of heroes in a game is LoL has 170 and DotA has 130 Deadlock is rushing characters out fast, while games like SF5 have only 40 characters in their roster How many is too many, and would it be better to polish older characters or introduce new ones 🤔

so I've fallen for 2 AI art scams recently and by "fallen" I mean "let my good nature get the best of me despite glaring red flags throughout the entire process" I guess it's time to take off the rose-colored glasses

having some thoughts some ultrakilling thoughts

six seven kisses from the angels on my tummy six seven bumblebees needed to make honey six seven nose wiggles like im a little bunny six seven years in a century six seven lies that you said to me six seven lies leave you dead within six seven nails the pierce your skin

uuuuuuuugh this stupid cockpit jittering bug is kicking my ass I think I'm about at the "fuck it" stage

A little fun

first car attempt vs. second car attempt

some critters for a friend's project

game releases always stress me TF out even though nothing bad ever happens phantom pressure I guess

uuuugh steam SDK be normal please

I'm not immune.

What a time for my internet to go out

my most recent vocal stim I've been cursed with thank you verytallbart

Two Tahus. One from 2022 and one from a couple weeks ago. I like to think I’ve upped my game a bit lol.

the varnish I use leaves everything looking kind of greasy which sucks also the paint the previous owner used was both a) white and b) refused to come off after 4 chemical baths this wouldn't be an issue, except the varnish ate through the black paint and now there's specks of white all over egh

finding out the best gun tank in Deadlock is Warden and that I actually like playing him has me all sorts of confused

also, about Bleeding Edge: I'm pretty sure Deadlock takes a lot of notes from it, from the mixed era setting to the usage of custom fonts for characters and their splash presentations (It's also got some of my absolute favorite designs in the medium, bar none)

I can guarantee any hero game produced by a AA company (or Valve) will have better character design in a single one of their concept pieces than the entire cast of LoL and It's Overwatch and Rivals combined I mean here, have some witches can you spot the one that's from a AAA game :V ?

today I feel like being mad at the downhill spiral of popular "hero game" character design take a disney princess hot glue a oversized weapon to it rinse, repeat boring as fuck

.hack//SIGN is so fucking special and a very good chunk of it is that the "trapped in an MMO world and percieving it as physical in a way that the rest of the cast does not" is not framed as empowering or fantastical, but as an immediate and troubling sign of dissociation
