All hands on deck! Ross explains how the EU Kids Act could end #StopKillingGames by collapsing the EU gaming market! youtu.be/mQRcK9nYg9g "The best thing you can do is spread the word...The people who write this crap do not like it when the public at large knows what they're trying to do to you"

This could legitimately end Stop Killing Games.

saw Transformers '86 in a theatre today. First time watching it in almost 15 years; my 20th anniversary DVD was left behind when i moved to CA i still love it as much as i did then. it might be a 90 minute toy commercial dressed up like an anime music video but god its stylish and quotable.

You can’t even comprehend how important Eien ni Hen’s work is to the fan translation community. Romancing SaGa, Fire Emblem, Sakura Wars, Tear Ring Saga, Glory of Heracles, Dragon Force II, Dark Half, Beyond Oasis, Psi-O-Blade, Arabian Nights, and so much more. What a loss. Rest in peace.

replaying PS1 Metal Gear Solid for thr first time in over a decade and a half and realizing people who hate its Twin Snakes remake compared to their either never actually played Twin Snake or worse are probably people that just hated Metal Gear Solid 2 back in the 2000s

man its so distressing that the new starcraft project has such a great trailer that really goes back to rhe tone of the first game after SC2 moved more into being an epic heroic adventure knowing its gonna be some shitass FPS and wont come out until im 41 (assuming it doesnt just get cancelled) :[

thinking of actual bona fide romances and not just ships is hard lol. but heres some i like Sigurd/Deirdre (Fire Emblem) Slippy/Amanda (Star Fox) Samurai Goroh/Lisa Brilliant (F-Zero) Anju/Kafei (Legend of Zelda) theyre all kinda basic tbh lol but they have cute dynamics/vibes I like.

hands down the best critical examination of the Jedi as an institution Ive seen. no stupid jokes, no insincere winks to the camera, no making excuses, and even addresses the very nature of the Thermian Fallacy as it pertains to this topic.

there's a lot of love for pre-rendered backgrounds in games (and rightfully so) but there should be more love for 3D fixed-camera games too! Just as cinematic, but now rooms can dynamically turn and reveal and stuff! A lot of games I love do this: Silent Hill, Eternal Darkness, Lament of Innocence.

Star Fox 2026 has deemed it fit to make Solar even worse than its N64 counterpart by just making the boss have like 5 times as much fucking health. good god why. why would you do this.

The thing is, artists don't actually owe you accessibility. You can just choose to not consume those works. That's fine. That's allowed. You can learn to be fine living as a person who's never read Finnegan's Wake. That's most of us, actually.

Belmonts, full stop. Ridley is a close second, but Belmonts were someone i wanted since Brawl introduced third party guests and the entire sequence is full of nothing but love letters to why old school Castlevania was awesome.

The level of bad faith in the prequels backlash is hilarious. But it worked because it co-opted people outside the fandom. Before the prequels many serious critics were dismayed about SW because they felt the VFX in that movie came at the expense of analog performance and story. 1/

It is often presented that the Collective Payment the fandom provides through buying merch/watching creates a larger "responsibility". You wouldn't be successful without the fandom, after all. This is psychotic. All you were owed is the plushie you bought and the DVD you ordered. Nothing more.

There is a mindworm that infects a specific kind of emotionally stunted person where they think enjoying something entered the creator into a faustian bargain with the Collective Fandom to "give the fans what they deserve". I fundamentally do not understand this insane belief. There is no contract.

Creatives don't owe you shit. They fundamentally do not owe you shit. They made something. You saw it. There was never any responsibility involved. They don't owe you a "better version" of the work. They don't owe you "less problematic writing". They don't owe you more episodes. You deserve nothing.

most fiction in human history has been escapism buddy just because you havent heard of 90% of it doesnt mean it didnt exist. yeah it sucks that even big buget hollywood struggles to put out meaningful material every year but the problem isnt escapism the problem is studios squeezing brands dry.

actually after some thinking ive revised my ratings Bolse really depends on if you get Star Wolf or not. Star Wolf Bolse is an A tier level, but without its merely a C, so I'll cut the difference with a B. Titania is honestly just as good as Macbeth, both Landmaster stages can be on A tier
