I love these behind the scenes videos mainly because I love hearing artists get excited and explain the process behind what they've made, it's so nice to hear genuine enthusiasm!

Seeing lots of posts about how bad representation is in games media and it reminds me of my uni dissertation on gender representation and how bad it was - this was 10 years ago and it's really disappointing nothing has changed

That's nice, what about the hundreds of people who have lost their jobs? Is that "great to see"?

Whenever a big Creature Collector RPG hits the mainstream people seem to play it out of spite for Pokemon rather than excitement for whatever the new game is and I find that really weird

I'd say I don't want to rain on your parade but my worst quality is I'm passionate about marketing so I am actually all too happy to talk about brand guidelines and why it actually sucks that Roxas is dabbing

Fortnite's latest crossover season is a weird branding exercise that's bad for both companies and fans

News of pandas in HS made me rewatch Kung Fu Panda and I'm still amazed by how well it holds up - great animations, fight choreography and story, might go ahead and watch all of them (I've only seen 1 and 2 I think)

I’ve thought about this clip a lot and I’m not sure I care tbh does that make me a fake gamer, I’m aware I’m playing a game so stuff on screen is fine

Look I know people aren't excited about older games but Trust me, you should really play Guardians of the Galaxy's. It's your favorite narrative director's hidden gem, I promise you.

I’ve reached the point - well actually, I reached it a while ago - where I’m militantly anti-AI. Fine - use it in bioscience labs and radiology where it might help analyse data more effectively. Use it sparingly for systems engineering. Everywhere else, it can fuck off.

New Kirby looks absolutely fantastic and will be a day one purchase, BUT I'm lowkey most excited for Yugioh GX Tag Force - I've wanted to play a Tag Force game for aaaaaaaages

As a new Harry Potter trailer makes the rounds, it bears repeating that there’s no way to watch this show without supporting J.K. Rowling’s bigotry and the structural violence she’s inflicting on the trans community.

There is no ethical consumption of HBO’s Harry Potter series

You can’t without supporting Rowling’s transphobic bigotry.

I think it would be good for the world if GTA 6 bombs. I know it won't. I don't even think it will be bad. But I'm really grossed out by how much the AAA game industry seems to be hinging all their hopes on this megaproduction. This shit can't be sustainable.

The Witcher 3 absolutely does not need a remaster....but you bet I'll be doing another playthrough when I eventually buy it

As a games journalist, I try to avoid saying “this game looks like this game plus this game” because it feels dismissive and kind of mean but holy shit I need some studios to start making games that don’t look like “this game plus this game”

RIP Hayden Panettiere 🌸🖤 #kingdomhearts #fanart

An illustration of Kairi and Xion from Kingdom Hearts. They lean on each other in a field of flowers that represent them (Kairi's heart piece, and aster flowers for Xion) while their respected keyblades stand beside them. The kingdom hearts moon iconography is drawn right behind them.

My hot take is that anyone saying the Kingdom Hearts story is too complicated is just lying (big asterisk on this) - the games are the most accessible they've ever been, there's a whole host of recaps and summaries on YouTube, we're not in the early 2010s anymore

Been playing Duskfade and I think I've found my favourite sword...something about it is very familiar....

A screenshot from Duskfade. The main character is stood with a large sword held in one hand over his shoulder. The sword has a yellow handle and a silver blade. Hanging off the handle are two keychains: A blue chain ending with a small moon and a golden chain ending with a star. It's clearly designed after the keyblade from the Kingdom Hearts series
