I was crying (about nothing mind you) and my mom brought me a mango to cheer me up And it worked

Tbh I think it’s pretty obvious why Nintendo pivoted towards a design-oriented play style for animal crossing new horizons given how the animal crossing new leaf community evolved and what was generally prioritised by players at that point - particularly wrt the way save editing tools were used

and so, it begins (i am scared of blender but im doing it)

I think it’s really weird that so many negative user reviews of pokemon legends za start with valid, if overblown, criticism but always end up going on a massive racist rant towards jacinthe at some point like I’m SO sorry the pretty black lady made the game unplayable for you

discovering that a lot of the weird negative twitter attention pokemon legends za is getting happens to be from engagement grifters looking for their scarlet and violet moment

That album drop was enough to make me rethink my stance on poptimism btw

I 100% completed Silksong on console and now I’m doing it again on Steam and then I’m going for my steel soul and speedrunner achievements, I’m so normal about this game

[2021-2023] various layton arts!! i care them 🎨 #art #ProfessorLayton

alright gamers im gonna learn blender for real this time

Sonic oc I put together on a whim back in July - Ivory the Vandal ⚡ Rude, loudmouthed, but artistically expressive. On public structures. I think she'll get design tweaks down the line, but it was fun putting together the concept :] 🎨 #art #SonicTheHedgehog #OC #SonicOC

I find it interesting that a lot of gamers have objections to the idea of friction being intentional game design - the most pertinent example for me at the moment is probably Silksong, but animal crossing is another example that comes to mind.

There's an undercurrent that I'm picking up on in silksong so far (about half way through Act 2) of the violence women specifically face under theocracy that I'm really fascinated by, I'll hold off on making any concrete statements until I'm done but there's definitely something there.

Marble Hornets: Rosswood is making me INSANE. The operator sighting, the time loss, THE TUNNEL!! I'm so invested, I cannot wait to see where this is going.

Good morning, hope you're all doing well and having a good weekend! Got a new video up for you all today, me, Dan and Nathan play some Mario Kart World! Hope you enjoy it! youtu.be/KA5DFkrfuzI?...

Friend :) #HollowKnight

My takeaway from the open network test is that Sonic Racing Crossworlds and Mario Kart World are different enough that I don’t feel like direct comparisons are particularly fruitful - and I imagine from what I’ve seen I’m going to maintain this opinion with Air Riders too.

The characterisation of everyone featured in Crossworlds has me giggling and kicking my feet btw, everyone is written exactly how I would like them to be and some of the dialogue between certain characters has me hopeful they will be utilised more in future games.

I think putting a mod for a Nintendo game behind a paywall is flying dangerously close to the sun but I also think leaking the mod because you don’t want to pay for it is scummy behaviour that shouldn’t be normalised

Top 5 pokemon of every generation I avoided any alt forms like megas or regionals because I want to make them a separate tier list in the future when i feel like it #Pokemon

I don't use wplace anymore because of literally everything that's happened there but sometimes i do check in on my old art today i was disheartened to find my work defaced in a horrifically misogynistic way i know it doesnt matter really but it makes me really sad.

I think even if a game is taking longer than expected, if it's going smoothly, a development team is not required to write a PR statement every few months to remind the prospective player base that the game is in fact still being made. I think a lot of people are parasocial about development teams.

I’m noticing some strange discourse about Minecraft mods so I’m gonna say this. I think people who say they cannot, play vanilla Minecraft are weird, and I think people who treat playing modded Minecraft as some sort of intellectual failing are also weird.

.... ...... I FORGOT HER DAMN EYEBROWS OH MY GODDDDD

Akiko is in the middle of her tech billionaire divorce arc. [ #art | #oc | #illustration | #StardustMillennium | #StardustAkiko ]

Honestly I think the issue with last nights State of Play wasn’t the quality of the games announced because I feel like there was definitely something for everyone there, but rather the pacing. Ending the show with a slow, cinematic dev interview knocked the excitement out of a lot of people.

If I had a dollar for every time someone tried to pass off a recent fanmade remaster of an old game as the official release when comparing it to an upcoming game in an attempt to display a downgrade in development quality, honestly I’d have about 20 dollars, but can we stop doing that, please?

Never before has an idea so firmly planted itself in my mind that I've had to rip it out so violently [ #art | #oc | #doodles | #StardustMillennium | #StardustAkiko | #StardustOrion ]

I find it very interesting that fandom interactions with characters who have trauma can be neatly parcelled into one of two responses 1) an almost obsessive need to “fix” the trauma 2) focus on the trauma so hard that it replaces the character entirely This is about anya mouthwashing btw

Sometimes I take a quick glance at twitter and man does it feel like some dead internet theory stuff nowadays. It genuinely feels like nobody real is still on there.

With the release of the Nintendo music app, this thing where video game music is credited to companies instead of individual artists is not exclusive to Nintendo - individual credits being erased in favour of “[blank] SOUND TEAM” is a long standing problem with digital releases across the board.

more games should have the megaman x soundtrack instead of whatever soundtrack they have

I am having a little bit of a conundrum with regards to my sona moving forward and how I want to do vtubing. Do I go for a png model, a 3D model or a Live2D model? I have choice paralysis over this fr fr (and I haven’t even finished my design)

this is how it went #mlp

When the game you just bought goes on sale right afterwards

oh yeah- thanks for watching #twitch #streamer
