There is now a second The Crawl channel: THE CRAWLSPACE. This is where all future YouTube streams and VODs will live, along with various one-off videos and other The Crawl ephemera. If that sounds cool to you, you can check it out here: www.youtube.com/@TheCrawl_sp...

I'm like 15 hours in to FF7 remake and 4 us in to Quest64 and it might surprise you which one I'm enjoying more, though the similarities are also uncanny.

Old gaming magazines are so weird. This game would apparently go on to become Bloodrayne. Jeremy Smith was, and apparently still is, one of the Executive Producers on Tomb Raider.

Sometimes I'll see a comment on a really popular creators video from someone who also commented on something of mine and think "Holy shit, maybe I am good at this. The same people watch my thing and (popular thing)." Even better when it's one of the weirdos.

Sometimes research on a video game can take you to weird places. Like the wikipedia entry for Twisted Sister lead singer Dee Snider, and who is allowed to sing "We're not gonna take it"

In 2021, Snider objected to the use of the song by anti-mask protestors in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. During the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, he approved the use of the song by Ukrainians. He tweeted, "People are asking me why I endorsed the use of 'We're Not Gonna Take It' for the Ukrainian people and did not for the anti-maskers. Well, one use is for a righteous battle against oppression; the other is infantile feet stomping against an inconvenience."

In 2022, Snider tweeted about the use of the song by right-wing activists, "ATTENTION QANON, MAGAT FASCISTS: Every time you sing 'We're Not Gonna Take It' remember it was written by a cross-dressing, libtard, tree hugging half-Jew who HATES everything you stand for. It was you and people like you that inspired every angry word of that song! SO FUCK OFF!"

In November 2023, after the October 7 attacks, Snider was asked if he agreed with Israeli soldiers using "We're Not Gonna Take It" as a battle cry. He replied, "Oh, hell yeah. You know what? Israelis, the assault on the Israelis, people are losing sight of something. People saying that, 'Oh, the response is gonna be too intense for what happened.' Well, you don't get to decide on the response when you do heinous things to civilians. You don't get to say, 'Oh, that's enough, that's enough retaliation.' No, it doesn't work like that. When you cross that line, you're burning people, you're slaughtering people, you're raping people, you're just killing people, after what happened at that festival you don't get to say, 'Okay, your revenge can be this much.' No. Payback's a mothereffer. And I come from that school. You cross that line, you know... shit's gonna happen. Sing it out, boys."

I really hate all the slop AI and machine translated (MTL) fan translations that are flooding the scene. Years ago, I was ignorant to fan translation sources, but having played many Japanese games for videos at this point, AI or MTL will never understand the nuance of a work of art. Fuck gen AI

Never played a Fire Emblem but BG3 brought the realization that I might enjoy tactics once in awhile. I thought "I should start at the beginning" (looks up the first FE game) "Maybe not that far back." Blazing Blade on the GBA seems alright, don't know if my brain will stick to it for 30 hours.

Coming back to this because I'm still really frustrated by the situation. It's one thing to use AI openly, shameful, but at least you're honest. This dude dropped a video 7 months ago crying about how AI is ruining the music industry, and on the side was failing at his own shitty slop hustle?!

Maybe it's just my very small sphere, but it seems like more and more people are exhausted of and disengaging from bluesky. Maybe because it no longer feels much better than Twitter. Social media isn't very sociable these days.

I really never understood the angry video game review guy trend, I have never watched a single episode of AVGN or nostalgia critic or whoever. I actually only learned who those people were in the last year, because of FoldingIdeas. Lucky me, I would have been even more insufferable.

Does anyone know of a good, structured place to discover older indie games that weren't breakout hits? I'm talking something searchable with screenshots for stuff in the 2005-2020 era. If you look on Steam, you'd think there was one indie game per year before 2024.

Remember this? In the current climate if you're an indie dev and you didn't use Gen AI, it should be easy to clearly state that. Probably gain a lot of goodwill in the process. I don't think it's on consumers to assume innocence when we are constantly being lied to about GenAI.
