can't stop thinking about the two morrowind mods that, in tandem, make it FFXI (FF11 Style Menu BG and Button Replacer + FF-HUD). it's uncanny and I kind of have to respect how it doesn't even feel all that anachronistic www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mo... www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mo...

Just ig just an FYI: I will be on paid medical leave from GameSpot through July 17 due to, y'know, getting shot over the weekend. I'm gonna try not to be on here very much either, but I'll probably be around my usual other places here and there.

Microsoft this week: We're laying off half the industry. Sony: We're ending physical games. Nintendo: have u seen this splatoon weapon we call it the bloblobber

I get people who primarily buy digital or play on PC (which I am one of, to be clear) are saying "who cares?" re: Sony not printing physical discs, but it's not just collectors being sad they can't have a box on the shelf. It is another example of people being priced out of video games 1/?

It's out now! Me and @rubyrockatansky.bsky.social present volume one of 𝕿𝖗𝖆𝖓𝖘𝖎𝖊𝖓𝖙 𝖁𝖔𝖑𝖙𝖆𝖌𝖊: 𝔄 ℭ𝔬𝔪𝔭𝔦𝔩𝔞𝔱𝔦𝔬𝔫 𝔬𝔣 𝔗𝔯𝔞𝔫𝔰 𝔐𝔢𝔱𝔞𝔩 𝔇𝔦𝔰𝔠𝔥𝔞𝔯𝔤𝔢! transientvoltage.bandcamp.com/album/transi...

The thing is, I like digital delivery and digital ownership, I don't need stacks and stacks of plastic waste. But all of these companies turned what could be a social good into a ruinous capitalist hellscape and that's a problem that persists through the ENTIRE pipeline, not just the point of sale.

I mean this in the most non-derogatory way possible: this is some CrimethInc shit

fuck the court and fuck every "it sucks but we gotta cave on sports, people have legitimate concerns, they'll definitely leave trans people alone after this" shithead on the way there

Obviously LLMs scraping Reddit and just spitting it back at you is bad because you can so easily manipulate it, but I want you to think really REALLLLLLLY hard about what that means next time you search "[thing I'm interested in] reddit" hoping to find a fully authentic, uncorrupted opinion

if a person is sentenced to 100 years in prison for being anti fascist in america then america is a fascist country

So the full context of what happened. Despite my glib tone in the initial post, it was actually a legit shooting a few blocks away and I uhhhh, just got unlucky, I guess? Or maybe very lucky, not sure. Screenshots of the full story I sent to @treeky.bsky.social:

shout out to whoever shot their gun into the air in my neighborhood, I caught one of the rounds when it fell back down. Lmk if you want it back.

new @kbash.bsky.social and it's for a whack-ass PS2 game go watch itttttttttttttttttt!!!!!!!!!

You're telling me a shrimp fried my timelin--

While we're here, Eliminage Gothic isn't as good as Eliminage Original... But it's literally $1 right now. One. Dollar. You can't even get a small fry at mcdonalds for that. And sure it's not S rank like Original, but it's still pretty good! store.steampowered.com/app/291960/E...

It would mean a lot to me if you all watched Andrew's new video. It's very good and I am very excited that it's finally here, he worked super hard on it for like THREE YEARS.

🚨AFTER 33 MONTHS, I BRING YOU THE SINGLE LARGEST CREATIVE PROJECT OF MY LIFE 🚨: THE NAMCO MUSEUM MUSEUM: EVERY GAME, EVERY COLLECTION, EVERY PORT! EVERY RELEASE, EVERY REGION, NO EXCEPTIONS! I've meticulously studied & presented EVERY single instance of Namco's historic game collections, for you!

Today I fire all of my guns at once and explode into space. Squeezing the trigger of every last professional skill I possess or lack until they're all clicking empty. Namco Museum Museum. YouTube Premiere event: Noon today, PDT. 5-minute countdown begins at 11:55 PDT. youtube.com/@mythicresonance

Ask not what your employer can do for you—ask why your employer is so afraid you'll unionize

it super sucks that normally, I'd be extremely excited for several days of Evo streams, across main stage and side games and all the other random events tossed in. but the new ownership and early changes to the main event have completely put me off watching any of it.

my point is that we should not confuse structural issues with taste. your enemy is not raytracing or rope physics or whatever the fuck. your enemy is gabe newell's $500 million super yacht. you wanna know where destiny 3 is, maybe try the yacht

i do not wish the game industry a "shorter games with worse graphics made by people who are paid more to work less." i wish the game industry a "unionize and redistribute capital equitably"

[NEW VIDEO] Y'all ever wondered what the first rpg ever was? Well, it wasn't this one. But the genre became a lot better with Dragon Quest 1! If you've felt a little scared to give it a go, why not join as I recount what kept me away, and my feelings after finally playing it! youtu.be/G08Xc1yokEc

I had the great honor to interview Raph Koster about Star Wars Galaxies, its incredibly ambitious vision for a Star Wars sandbox MMO, and the infamous game design challenge of the "Jedi problem" Thanks @raphkoster.bsky.social for making the time and sorry it took so long for this to see daylight!

I Have No Time, and I Must Do Stuff

The sentences doled out in the Prairieland case today are horrific. Des was sentenced to 30 years in prison for moving a box of zines. There is no pretense of "justice" here. The judge said, “the state wants to send a message to anyone who shares a similar ideology.” crimethinc.com/prairieland

jeeeeeeezuss

A judge in Texas is giving noise demo protesters decades in prison right now for being antifascists and having anarchist beliefs. One of the 15 arrested in Minneapolis was targeted for allegedly writing an article for “an anarchist blog.” They want us to shut up. (Without fedposting,) get louder.

hi! i'm starting a blog/newsletter about miniatures wargaming. i've discovered a whole world of rad indie games, from games about WWI aardvarks to drunken orcs to a game played with Hot Wheels cars. i've also gotten into some Warhammer, so be ready for that sign up here: amateurhourwar.games

Happy 30th, Quake. Couldn't imagine a world without you.

gonna start carrying a psp around like when I was a homeless punk kid in 2009. kinda annoyed that I ever stopped carrying a psp around with me in the first place tbh

Shredder is not only one of my best friends, he's also favorite YouTube folks out there, and it's cool seeing him get the recognition he deserves.

this but the steam machine

ok yeah I'm just making it the pfp at this point
