Burning through Culdcept Revolt on 3DS after getting through much of the translation of Saturn Culdcept. Fam, this series is so damn good. I highly highly recommend the Culdcept games.

In light of what I posted earlier, I want to encourage others to share retro translations and homebrew that do not use the slop machines. Saturn translations I recommend: Silhouette Mirage Grandia Sakura Wars 1 and 2 Linkle Liver Story Mobile Suit Gundam Bulk Slash The various Shining Force games

Today, I decided to dump all my thoughts about A.I. infecting the retro and Saturn scene into one cohesive article. In short, I am certifiably sick of this.

Not Sega Saturn royalty, but I do highly recommend the Rollcage games on PS1. They are serious fun.

RESKEET It’s crazy that we live in a world where romance novels are taking the fuck off, but we still don’t have dating sims other than “haha what if the toaster is bangable.” Don’t get me wrong, “haha what if the toaster is bangable” is great, but how do we not have serious dating sims in the west?

Sega, I get it now. You used AI in Crazy Taxi to drive up the price of your competitor's consoles decades after they shut you out of the hardware business. It all makes sense now. The deal with nvidia all those years ago was a long con, leading up to this very moment in tech history. Extreme gambit.

Spending more money on a Switch 2 is totally worth it for all those disgusting AI generated commercials that I am now being forcibly exposed to. Thinking about the bottom line of all these companies that need to shove products down my throat, I would absolutely pay more for RAM for their benefit.

Picture shows a big headed figurine of Arthur Read playing a grand piano with over-the-ear headphones placed in a way where the cups are clearly not anywhere close to his ears. (Visited family over the weekend and my brother is a huge Arthur fan, bro has like a bunch of the DVDs and stuff. Who doesn’t like Arthur is the real question.)

A: "Hey, tell me about this show." B: *Gives detailed explanation about the show's history* A: "No, I mean the story." B: "Oh, I dunno. I haven't watched it." I feel like I relate too much to this scene from Blue Blazes sometimes.
