Faith K. Falkner @faithfalkner.com · 3hI DIDN'T KNOW KALANDRA WAS IN @remedygames.com's CONTROL: RESONANT! I thought this was just a short title theme. But no, it's a full song. Fantastic.

Faith K. Falkner @faithfalkner.com · 7hAnd I hesitate a bit more to add, I see some overlap with it and AI slop. In the sense that some adherents to the doctrine would just accept anything as art. 020
Faith K. Falkner @faithfalkner.com · 7hI'm sympathetic to what Dadaism was attempting and how it was nihilistic & anti-capitalist. And the historical influence I think is significant. But so much of Dadaism, I feel, was ignoring the human spirit to spite it as the source of conflict. Much of that art does not resonate with me at all. 120
Faith K. Falkner @faithfalkner.com · 7hIt's part of the Hiss incantation from the Control games by Remedy. It's Dadaist, nonsensical poetry the zombie antagonists of the games speak as they float about or attack the player character. 230

Faith K. Falkner @faithfalkner.com · 8hProducer wisdom: It costs time to make anything. And time is money. Having little money means having little time. 020
Faith K. Falkner @faithfalkner.com · 8hI don't think producers and creative directors deserve some of the salaries we sometimes see if we are lucky (I have a hard time believing anyone should make six figures USD$) but I also don't think most understand what a difficult job it is to tease out something new, unique, or worth publishing. 080
Faith K. Falkner @faithfalkner.com · 8hI'm elevated by some wonderfully talented people who are incredible at their creative specialties and it's difficult to not worry whether I've given them the best materials to work with and create resonant art. Because otherwise the journey doesn't continue. 160
Faith K. Falkner @faithfalkner.com · 8hHaving that feeling of deep uncertainty of the self that comes before revealing anything as an artist. Always second guessing yourself, wondering if you couldn't have done better given the time and tools available to you. Hoping there's just one audience member who sees what you see in your work. 1122

Faith K. Falkner @faithfalkner.com · 9hI'm really demoralized as a 'creative' right now. I need these upcoming Duluth and Reykjavík trips bad. 0120
Faith K. Falkner @faithfalkner.com · 11hAs an author, I want to show trans characters in a sympathetic light, but not in a moralizing one. I want to see morally grey characters across humanity. I don't want to fear the politics of portrayal, because I believe that sanctifying queer characters only plays into the far-right's narrative. 1316

Faith K. Falkner @faithfalkner.com · 29/09/2026I wish @remedygames.com would just come out and say Jesse and Emily were smoochin'. Because they were totally smoochin'. 2100
Faith K. Falkner @faithfalkner.com · 29/09/2026But I want to be clear, too: the game is a heck of an achievement and the team should be proud. Particularly as the studio is working on two games at once and Sam Lake was barely involved. This is still a worthy sequel even with its minor disappointments. 010
Faith K. Falkner @faithfalkner.com · 29/09/2026Resonant is great, it's just that: 1) As said, the numbers on some of those boss fights in the mid-game are brutal. (The final boss was tough but I didn't need Assist Mode; it was 'suitably' tough.) 2) Map is rough. 3) Story is a tad more predictable than I'd have liked from a Remedy game. 120

Sorry…I’m too busy reading the story of a man who “Controls Rocinante”…that’s right, Miguel Cervantes’ immortal tale “Don Quixote de La Mancha”.
