Me: I don't get it. I thought I was doing a lot better than I was a few years ago. I'm like 10 times more on top of things than I used to be. How does everything feel terrible now?

The Tiny Me in OSHA-approved Hi-Vis Gear Who lives in my brain and pulls all the levers: Boss, it's the fascism. You're completely gunked up with cortisol due to the fact that your entire daily life is now underscored with a haunting awareness of the rapid erosion of your rights, dignity, and any and all social safety nets, and you're also bearing witness to the most vulnerable people immediately being persecuted. This creates a natural stress response that basically means you're going to continue having memory and organizational problems, as well as emotional imbalances.

Me: BUT I HAVE A BULLET JOURNAL AND I MEDITATE NOW.

Tiny OSHA Me: BOSS, THE FASCISM.

OK but "mysterious TV writing competition that kills the entrants" is a classic mid-run RTD1 plot

There has never been a widely debated public justification for surplus. The entire thing has always been based on vibes, unstated assumptions and implicit values.

In 1956 the late great PETER CUSHING invited a film crew into his Kensington home to show off his hobby — painting miniature toy soldiers, and playing with them in the rules set down by fellow toy soldier hobbyist H.G. Wells.

Genuinely, this completely rules

－Recently, the game has been going viral on X for its beautiful undressing animations. I’ve even read in one of your previous interviews that the development team practiced stripping themselves as reference for the undressing animations. What was the process behind making the animations actually like?

Matsui:

I’d love to know how far that story has spread. It’s true.

First, we write a plot for each undressing scene, then draw storyboards, exactly as the original team did. Then the real work begins, because the animation is essentially all keyed by hand. A designer moves the clothing’s 3D model, frame by frame, manually. It really is pretty much like the claymation method I mentioned.

We did try automating it with physics simulation first, but it was a total failure. The cloth moved in a physically correct way, but had absolutely no allure. We learned a profound lesson: accuracy and sensuality are two unrelated properties. In the end, we accepted that humans would have to do all of it.

Then VR adds its own weight. In a normal game, if something becomes awkward, you can cut away or swap models between scenes. In VR, the player can look from any angle at any time, so none of those tricks are available. The same model has to undress convincingly no matter where you’re standing. When I described this to a designer at another studio, he said, “I would never do that.” I’ve chosen to take it as a compliment.

And then, yes, the part you’ve read about. The undressing motions themselves use motion capture, but the deeper problem was that nobody actually knew the correct rhythm and order in which a person takes off clothes. So, the directors gathered and undressed themselves as reference. “That zipper is coming down too fast.” “She’d pause once before slipping her shoulder out.” These were serious, sober discussions. For compliance reasons, the Super Real Mahjong Venus Returns team works in a walled-off section of our office – and that was the moment those walls truly earned their keep.

I can name a couple other franchises that could do a lot worse than cycling a steady "nostalgia / new / experiment" release tbh, there's something to be said for keeping an overlapping but still moving target audience as far as staying in the conversation goes.

Konami's SH revival plan of a three year cycle of remake/mainline/third party is really paying off, you gotta hand it to em. Townfall maybe plays it a little too safe overall, and veers more into how you'd expect a Resident Evil to play out in places, but it's a pretty great sum of its parts.

Silent Hill: Townfall ✅These are, legitimately, some of the most photorealistic environments I have ever seen in a game ✅Really Gets It (complimentary) 🚫Stealth often misses the necessary "tense/frustrating" balance 🚫Mostly plays it's hand too soon, so the last act is mostly something to Get Through

libertine hermit - daywalking yaoi manther mode @jondauthor.work · 25/09/2026

the weakest part of the original silent hill movie was making the lead a stoic found-power mama bear badass type, because it was mapping it onto a game where the protagonist could barely emote due to engine limitations. if bloober have any sense, the remake should make him a dweeby screamer

libertine hermit - daywalking yaoi manther mode @jondauthor.work · 25/09/2026

this has me thinking about how silent hill developed a reputation off Silent Hill 2 as "haunted man sadness game" but this movie is straight up what a good version of SH1 would be (hapless guy finds himself screaming through fucked up scenario with solid reason to not just leg it outta there)

escalating vince mcmahon meme:
Simon Ordell is called back to the island of St. Amelia to ‘put things right’,

encountering a town lying quiet beneath a heavy fog, seemingly abandoned but not at rest.

Venturing deeper, and driven to understand his connection to the place and its inhabitants,

Simon begins to discover fragments of a past rising to the surface.

five minutes into my totally legit and legal copy of the new resident evil movie and it's so funny how every game circa 2010 was trying to get this vibe in it's story cutscenes and then you do it in an actual film and and it's like "yeah obviously it works here, they're two different mediums"
