I've been doing a little bit of playtesting for Lovers Die, an upcoming game which now has a demo out! You should check it out if you like rolling dice, and also if you don't like rolling dice. Just do it little-sister-games.itch.io/lovers-die#d...

FNAF is ontologically evil because it's so hyper-tuned for neurodivergent children to fixate on instead of healthy things like tertiary dragon ball characters, video quality, sora and riku kissing, color balancing and sonic the hedgehog

By Persona 4 the Atlus team had their sense of style much more dialed-in than they did in Persona 3, so the quality gap between the original game's presentation and the remake's is much more apparent than it was with the P3 remake.

Man, the Dragon Quest VII Reimagined demo is actively charming me in a way that is unusual for games these days. Very quickly went from "buying eventually to put on the pile of Dragon Quests I'll never muster the patience to play" to a day 1 purchase.

tl;dr The narrative team at Funcom is absolutely killing it, and if you haven't played the Fremen questlines, you're missing out on some of the best writing our industry has right now. Don't sleep on it.

when i was single-digit years old i read the phrase "political assassination" in nintendo power's killer7 feature and i asked my dad what it meant. he said "what the hell is that gamecube teaching you man." first time i'd ever heard him curse. happy 20th to the greatest video game of all time

Dune: Awakening releases today. I've been on the project for three and a half years. Video games, somehow, just keep getting harder and harder to make. But I think we landed this one. There has never been a game quite like it before.

On the one hand, congrats, on the other hand, 100k is criminally low for one of the best narrative games ever created, so I hope for a continued tail on this one. Literally every thread about it is people saying they didn't know of it and were blown away. Play it!

Done with the main+extended story in Xenoblade X after 107 hours, time to unmute a bunch of keywords. Easily the worst game in the franchise, which means it's still a very strong 8/10 and potential GotY contender.

1000xRESIST review | Adventure Game Hotspot
1000xRESIST is a brilliantly conceived and written piece of dystopian fiction that delves into difficult topics with layers of nuance and introspection. What it lacks in gameplay is more than made up ...

Credits rolling on Avowed. Overall I enjoyed it! Some will find that its CRPG roots and superficial similarities to TES hurt it—it deliberately opts out of any pseudo immersive sim aspects in favor of a more streamlined questing experience. It is a *good* experience, with the right expectations.

I don't think it's discussed nearly as much as it should be that when Mega64's transfarring promo was dubbed into Japanese, Konami got Mr. Japanese Solid Snake himself, Akio Otsuka, to dub Rocco and it'll never not be the funniest thing to hear a voice I now associate with car ads coming out of him.

“I didn’t go, not after what he said” is an example of RESUMPTIVE NEGATION—the use of one negative statement immediately after another to emphasise the negation of the whole. The second clause here could just be “after what he said”, but the extra ‘not’ works to reinforce the first.

Credits finally rolling on Metaphor ReFantazio. A fantastic game, as expected, and I remain fascinated by its development cycle. A very direct sequel to Persona 5 left to cook for the better part of a decade, it feels simultaneously sprawling and constrained, polished and rushed. Craft, not product.

It occurs to me, after reading posts getting it spectacularly wrong, that there are a lot of misconceptions over how game studios organize and, in particular, who makes the actual decisions about what ends up in your game. Much of it is by folks who don't *try* to get it... but not all, surely. 1/🧵

many stories throughout the ages have been about the end of the age of heroes and the beginning of the age of men. the illiad placed this occurence sometime in the mycenaean era. mgs3 places it in the 1960s.

Wrapped up my Zero Time Dilemma re-play, and it cemented my belief that the game being the weakest in the trilogy is a mercy. The death of the franchise would have been incredibly painful if the last entry had been on par with Virtue's Last Reward, but it being plagued by misfires softens the blow.
