I know the style has its detractors, but I'm all in on HD2D. Gimme all the remakes.

Yen Sid and Eraqus clearly had very different ideas of what constitutes a Keyblade Master.

do you think Gaius is a fucking idiot for building The Ultima Weapon and having it so that Tank Purge is a party wide and the Homing Missiles (plural) is the tankbuster

I may be committing to a Kingdom Hearts series replay. At the very least, I'm gonna start Dream, Drop, Distance next! I'm on a kick now, what can I say.

fukken GOT HIM.

That new Kingdom Hearts box art sure is fugly though, huh.

Sometimes I hate the timeline we’re trapped in.

noctis relatable character arc of being like no one understands me but my discord gf meanwhile she’s grooming him to kill himself the entire time

Complete failure of all of our institutions has lead to a massive concentration of wealth in a huckster who (1) ignores (or undermines) his businesses to fund/lead international white supremacist movement (2) paid to run US government for year raising spending, lowering services, killing 100,000s...

Friday night

Bring back Ariana Grande for Final Fantasy Resonance, you cowards.

...He will act how you want. Because you're the writer and he's dead. HE WILL ACT HOWEVER THE PERSON WRITING WANTS HIM TO. BECAUSE HE'S DEAD. BECAUSE THIS ISN'T SOME NEW-AGE WOO-WOO SHIT LIKE YOU'RE CHANNELING THE MAN THROUGH YOUR PEN. YOU'RE PUPPETING A DEAD MAN AROUND FOR PROFIT YOU SICK FUCKS.

is daredevil (2003) a good movie? no not really. but does it feature joey pants looking like this? yes it does

An Ocarina of Time remake is the least interesting thing Nintendo could make at this juncture. Like, yes, it's *safe*, and those weirdo purists who hate Breath/Tears will be happy. But I can't muster much enthusiasm.

This might be one of the most insane scandals in game history When Pokemon Go players scan PokeStops, theyve been unknowingly building a detailed visual model of the world which is being sold to a military contractor to build a no-GPS positioning for the new generation of unmanned killing machines

Being completely honest, I have negative interest in anything Sword Art Online related, but I hope Echoes of Aincrad is good.

Michigan Governor caught on hot mic with Oracle CEO Clay Magouyrk, discussing citizen opposition to AI data centers, bragging how she ignores their concerns: “We’re used to people saying 'f*ck no,' & doing it anyway.”🇺🇸

"We already live in a world where you walk outside and there are billboards and signs that are obvious AI slop. That’s become part of our visual reality. To me, generative AI feels less like innovation than a symptom of a broader cultural and economic rot." I like this kid.

got mad

whenever i see people complaining about games being old and thus bad it’s generally the older enthusiast audience who have for years bought into the industry narrative of technological progress. this game from my childhood DESERVES a remake, as a symbol of its status, and to see it in 4KHD

Final Fantasy Resonance announced for October! 💎 Like how 'Octopath Traveler 0' turned the mobile F2P game into a single-player RPG, so too will this "cast Life" on Final Fantasy Brave Exvius after shutting down last year. Info + Trailer: www.rpgfan.com/2026/06/09/f...

Xenoblade Genesis has been revealed! Set for 2027 and taking place in another expansive fantasy realm (possibly military/school setting?). You can also see the curvature of the world...but like, the inner-CONCAVE-curvature (...take that, Flat Earthers?!). 🌍 Looks beautiful!

Rumor: Australian retailers say Kingdom Hearts IV releases in 2027 for KH 1-3 description: "Play through the full KINGDOM HEARTS series in one comprehensive package before the release of KINGDOM HEARTS IV in 2027" Listed at JB Hi-Fi and EBgames www.khinsider.com/news/RUMOR-A...

The only reason I have any interst in the OOT remake is because I want to know how much of a remake it is because it is such a fascinating(derogatory) decision to make for a franchise which has basically already been "remaking" and retelling its same story for like 40 years.

kalshi and polymarket should, flatly, be regulated out of existence I'm generally not big on moral arguments for this stuff but they are tremendously destructive to civil society as a whole

Nomura doing several pieces of art where Xehanort is holding an umbrella and then putting him in the new trailer. I’m gonna be sick

Quest 64 (N64) (1998) 1/6

i hope ocarina of time 2026 is just unrecognizable and over-ambitious and takes big swings that upset some people because if you’re spending resources and dev time only for link to leave that tree house and enter a one-to-one layout of n64 kokiri forest in UE5 im gonna be really bummed out

For fucks sake. Genuinely embarrassing, Square.

...look, I by no means want to rain on anyone's parade, but that Ocarina of Time teaser was a whole load of nothing. On par with that Persona 6 trailer. Apparently it's coming out this year so I'm guessing we'll learn more very soon! I personally hope it's more than a 1:1 recreation of the OG.

new type of acquittal just dropped

New Atelier girl is cute as a button.

Xehanort Will Return in Kingdom Hearts IV.

Mattie and I singing Simple and Clean before our Obsession screening last night manifested KH4, you're welcome.

OMG

I’m so down with Square Enix doing another offline version of the eir mobile games. Brave Exvius was genuinely really good

Okay, "HD2D Brave Exvius" was not on my bingo card.

XENOBLADE

Wait, the Dragon's Dogma 2 expansion is *also* called Dark Arisen? That's not confusing at all.

A new op-ed in the Washington Times finally says the quiet part out loud: Fascism demands sexual repression. "Pornography corrodes the exact social foundation that supports national strength... A society marked by loneliness, weakened families and diminished social trust becomes brittle."

Quentyn is a long-time friend of mine who could use some support. They were caught up in Valnet's layoffs at TheGamer, and they need help to make ends meet at the moment. If you aren't able to donate, please at least share.

Also, if you're the kind of person who sees red when you hear "video game journalist" in general, I don't know how to break it to you but you grew up in a weird bubble and are probably brainwashed to an extent that you don't realize.

no no you don’t understand, we only used AI for the part of the production pipeline where we didn’t want to pay employees, it’s different

Shoutout to the MogTalk crew and the FFXIV community for raising over $100,000 for a great cause during the World First race!

Fuck yes, one down. #birthbysleep

Cloud rolling up to his fourth epic final confrontation with Sephiroth at the end of Revelations.

Marie is back so the single worst timeskip design in all of fiction is safe. Thank God.

I'm sure that a lot of companies in the games industry are using AI tools to some capacity, given that they've been integrated into common software. The problem is where it's being used to replace the work of actual human artists and programmers.
