Whatnot too. The vast majority of the channels blatantly use AI, especially if they focus on gambling or scalping.

Probably like the second best thing she's ever illustrated which is saying alot.

It's pretty telling that these AI Decomp Mods only ever show off clips in the first areas of their respective games.

Always need to be sleeping something to either grow sales or cut costs and this is probably all a matter of keeping up with product demand.

I want to pretend Sinners came out on 1998 and needed a hit original song to promote it.

Private clients don't know how long the work takes and corporate clients get the finances settled last (and also don't know how long the work takes).

I think I'm having a bit more fun playing greedily where I try to avoid breaking weapons and therefore must run far more than I fight. That might help so when you're forced into combat it's more tense and unknown.

Genuinely one of my favorite new movies in years and I can't wait to make it a winter tradition.

Excruciatingly biased but I make a podcast called Brain Lords that's a biweekly panel on art and video games.

Like a race it's a set of highs and lows. For every cool god, inventive exhaust mechanic, and commentary on revolution you get unremarkably silly teams, tonal/visual clash, and imo arguably one of the worst cards in Magic from a storytelling standpoint: Spikeshell Harrier

Just keep writing it as "♥♪!?"before settling on the name Geno.

In your opening hand it basically just reads "you have the ideal hand for the rest of the game" for no cost. Every single deck can use some element: graveyard, surveil, artifact, noncombat damage, life gain. Even drawn late its so cheap that sculpting a draw/slightly stabilizing is not that bad.

Lion's Ocean is an early one that really solidified the show's identity for me.

Of all the DQ games I would guess are up here I wouldn't have thought 7, that's a neat pick.

Literally showing season 3 to my wife right now. I've seen a few other people bring up the show recently I wonder if it just comes back in waves?

I've watched it at least a dozen times. I love it, it crams a whole lot into very little. So much of the strength of the Vanillaware artististry is in the character design storytelling and music and this shows that off. Frankly vibes are more important to me than any gameplay.

It's so funny how much of Undertale and Deltarune is just Brandish.

I agree to all of this but also I love that movie because of how weird it is.

My hope is that in order not be seen as low quality, people will have to commission more unique looking art. Itll get worse before it gets better but I do think it'll get better.

Do you have a question for the creator of Look Outside? We have a spooky episode coming up and would love a response!

I love the series and this side story will be 2008 era Standard specifically.

I tend not to like the term Cozy Game because its so much a marketing term that means little. The genre I like to call it is a Nesting Game, which is more about taking care of something whether that be maintaining a space or a trade with low stakes and plenty of expression.

Went 3-0 at prerelease and my miggest workhorse for me was the Medic Kitesail and surprisingly Thalia. Eye of Jace was also better than it had any reason to be. Would like to say in some expert but my Enlightened Tutor constantly drew me like 3 card most games.

Let's just agree to pretend she's dating that fat assassin girl.

Something I wish they'd do more of us just reference characters with non legendary cards. They did plenty of that in FFN and I don't see why you couldn't have "Serum Soldier" and it's clearly a picture of Captain America instead of a 4th named printing.

Every time I close my eyes...I wake up feeling so an-gry~ I was wondering why the vocalist sounded familiar and then realized he's one half of the only Megan Thee Stallion song I actually hate.

Also published by Good Smile sounds strange until you realize that Vanillware is a Good Character Factory that seems to sell just as many statues as games at this point.

I literally started rewatching it this weekend and the animation and style is just so unique and beautiful. They really don't make animated shows quite like this.

Who all do I know going to MAGfest? Got some panel shenanigans and other things I'm thinking about.

I was about to say, choice is kinda the ONE thing that book is most trying to say so a little ambiguity is a good thing. Folks act like they've never seen actors fluff up their roles and methods like a resume during these talking head bits before.

Happy for him but your work does not feel like content, it's journalism, critique, lit crit, style parody, art. Can't say I feel that way about his or most similar essays these days.

I'll have a few cubes as well. Hit me up for that or pauper of whatever!

I agree. I make fun of the fact that the gazebo floor is JUST cosplayers doing solo recordings with ring light cell phone attachments WHICH IS FINE as long as they are also contributing something fun the con. I think its fair to be anxious that people leaving Katsucon aren't being as pro-social.
