Nintendo Hire This Man usually gets a small bump in views and comments every Nintendo Direct, but it's gotten almost 300 new comments in the past 4 hours. This is the power of Unreal Engine.

Just came to the realization I have little to no nostalgia for the PS1 aesthetic because I spent that era playing Isometric 2D games lmfao.

Last year, I was a guest speaker at the Exposición de Videojuegos Argentina (EVA for short), talking about my experience as an Age of Empires III game modder. Unfortunately, I didn't have any recordings or even pictures of the event. I did have, however, a practice recording!

Kinda funny timing considering the game was recently brought back from the dead. But I had been working on a feature full mapuche civ mod for Age of Empires 3! It's not completely done yet but it's in a playable enough state that I decided to publish it.

A sample of the mapuche unit roster in a mod for Age of Empires 3 that adds them to the game as a playable civilization!

Two year anniversary of when I first posted this comic

Two panel comic. Panel 1: an anglerfish is washed up on the ocean shore, laying in the tide. It thinks to itself, “it’s so beautiful.” Panel 2: wide shot of the beach, rocky cliffs, and sky at sunset, with the anglerfish still laying in place. The anglerfish continues thinking to itself, “I might have never known.”

Recently I found out #pinoys are on average the biggest social media users in the world and despite that my Filipino mod for #AgeofEmpires3 hasn't even gone viral smh my head.

Screenshot of a small filipino town in my mod for Age of Empires. It shows a few Sundalos (basic gun soldiers) being trained.

So I tried to look the source of a military unit I had in the Iran mod I'm making for Age of Empires 3 (I do a lot of research for my mods, which is a whole another story, but that's for another day) Thing is, tried googling it and the only result that came up was... my own post.

Just realized last few comments on my demos have been "new mod? y u abandon old mod?"

Never thought I'd ever get to say this in my life but just remembered I drove by the #AoE2 #mapuche wonder the other day. (Yes, that's how it looks nowadays)

my thesis now is that you have to be sick to survive being in the public eye to any degree. good people are repelled, disgusted, and terrified of fame and attention, and retreat if they get too much. yes, i am well aware i have a following. i do not consider myself a good person.

We're making a game where you play a courier rider in 13th century Mongolia No combat, just you, the horse(s) you've tamed, bred and trained and the vast wilderness. Would you play this?

Interesting video by Robby. I think about this lot. At some point when you mod games you begin to wonder. Is really worth it? Your time and energy, to fight against an engine with little documentation, haphazard support and oftentimes a huge economic cost. www.youtube.com/watch?v=tYyu...
