I really can't get past the idea that if I had unlimited time to make my dream game, I think I'd ultimately end up just remaking Might & Magic VIII. It really is kinda just the perfect video game in so many ways.

The reason we have all these Claude-built recomp/decomp projects is because the AI dorks couldn't figure out how to shoehorn LLMs into games that were made 20 years ago so they all got together and had their agents do a little brainstorming and came up with a strategy to ruin yet another good thing.

Zero. The answer is zero. There is no amount of playing Ace Attorney or Professor Layton that could ever make this game make sense.

As of today, the CDC has changed (reverted) their Covid guidance to make the vaccine recommended for all people over 18. In addition to being a smart public health move, this recommendation also means insurance must cover it. Read more here: www.cdc.gov/covid/hcp/va... Listen to a breakdown here:

Gotta admit the rookie defense attorney is unorthodox, but they get results.
Comic set in the universe of Ace Attorney. Cal Belle, who DEFINITELY didn't do a murder, is on the stand for murder.

Panel 01:
Far out. WILD EVEN. Accusing me of murder?! Who are you, really.

Panel 02:
Unless... Magically you found PROOF I drank the milk!

Panel 03:
RING RING RING RING RING RING RING
Shamrock, the rookie defense attorney. Objects by ringing their bell. Their evidence is in a pile, but that's okay they're a professional. 

Panel 04:
Famous Prosecutor Miles Edgeworth recoils, in fear of what this plucky attorney has up their sleeve.

A VR version of the worst Ace Attorney game is such a stupid idea I can't help but admire it a little

Why are old games so cool? Asked a gamedev what it would cost to build games this cool today. I will never forget her answer… 'We can’t, we don’t know how to do it.'

35 is the Inferno birthday. Dante was 35 when he was "midway through the journey of our life" and took a famous little hike. Maybe you've heard of him?

If you're a Dem who thinks you'll gain something by going anti-trans, look at Gallup's "most important problem" and Fox News' "most important issue" polling and see where trans issues rank. Whoever told you going anti-trans is a savvy or necessary move spends too much time on X and should be fired.
Gallup polling. "LGBTQ rights" moves between 0 and 1%.Fox news polling. Wokeness/transgender issues at 0%.

Are we talking about the same Democrats? Or are you making up a guy to get mad at? I'd love to see the Democratic party even muster half-hearted support for my trans siblings. All the Democrats I'm aware of are only too ready to throw any marginalized group under the nearest bus.

People have their reasons and I'm sure its more complicated than that, but I wince a bit when I hear "its a good game for its time" said. Its at worst condescending, but more often just wrong, or at least the wrong framing. Metroid is a good game in 2026.

The sort of person who is incapable of appreciating an older game because of its friction or its presentation aren't, to my way of thinking, looking for a gaming experience, but rather a more modern artifact of the way gaming as a medium has been commodified.

This is tangential to the valid, well-articulated point being made here, but I don't really respect the recontextualization that some people twist themselves into to argue for (or sometimes against) older media. (That is not the point that was being made by the OP, just a secondary thought)

I’m finding this more funny than rage inducing, but he’s basically saying, “THIS is the definitive way to get into Star Wars… You shouldn’t watch Star Wars: A New Hope. Here’s the top three reasons why you should skip Star Wars: A New Hope. I’ve never seen Star Wars: A New Hope.”

I still strongly recommend A Monster's Expedition. Far and above my favorite Draknek game. The writing is charming and the puzzles are incredibly creative.
