I still feel like this is one of the coolest little interactions in Emergence thanks to cutting edge power of Source

Why does the proletariat, the largest class, not simply eat the bourgeoisie

I'm no character artist, I don't know what I'm talking about 99% of the time, but I think there's something about how clean and simple the overall designs are, and how subtle the "greeble" is on the fabrics and hair. Pulpy. Goofy even. Has a miniature quality, even clay-like, looking at the hair.

Since the internet seems to be awash with Puppet Character Design talk, I'm revisiting a game that always struck me as kinda puppet-y as a kid: Sin. These character renders, with their smooth-shaded, doll-like proportions and "realistic" textures layered on top were always really fun to me.

The game actually just paid this off like a massive brick joke some 15 levels later. You pass back through a previous area at the bottom of the tower, only a new path has been blown open by this elevator crashing.

Objective is to kill this one dude. I can either A) shoot him, B) lock him in the freezer and turn it to high, or C) rely on his own stupidity. Immersive sim confirmed?

The future is this but for worthless AI powered engines

Pulp film night? I don't remember anything about this.

I have one of these. I can't hold it properly, but why do I like it so much.

I never did get around to this because I'm dumb, but now recent happenings also have me thinking I should rewatch Stand Alone Complex and The Last Airbender and I only have so much free time

I forgot about these chzo mfs in Blood 2

This AI disclosure just made it through 4.8.1 so I don't know how true that is, really.

Co-oping randomised Dark Souls with friends. Let's see what lies behind the first doo- oh.

End of Starchild spoilers. I cannot find the last 4 kills in the final mission, but I'm so close to 100% everywhere. Also is there a third reward card after "brave"? Also you gotta grab the OST to this game, it's just stellar. lapfox.bandcamp.com/album/end-of...

Watching Caprica for the first time. Absolutely loving these 2010s TV CGI establishing shots. Otherworldly skyboxes.

Got the basic bitch ending so now I'm going back looking for all the real secret stuff. Managed to find all the virtues and mysteries on the first two worlds so far and crack open one of the coded doors. This game is such an enigma.

Old pics. Haven't been able to afford collecting in a long time, and I don't imagine prices are getting better. ˙◠˙

Following up with another feel good movie

Hmm, "How do you start a sequel film to Interview With The Vampire?" I ask myself after rewatching it

The sound of a nu metal band arouses the vampire Lestat de Lioncourt from a lengthy slumber, and he proceeds to take over as their lead singer.

So yeah End of Starchild is something special, huh? I'm only 3 worlds in so far but it's really oddly serene and beautiful despite all the bullet chaos. Just incredible vision that extends to the every part of the interface, too! Strong Lain vibes in this one.

Dunno when that happened, but cool

Enough sad/bad posting. Let's work on that next Quake pack. Monetarily and gen AI free.

Oh I loved the Washington Prime demo. A cheesy 90s political action thriller x Die Hard, scoped as a brutal multi-level dungeon crawler. Seems to be too hard for people in the Steam comments (yeah I know), but god I dig the little stealthy cat-and-mouse thing it's doing with super limited resources.

I wanted to call a short-barrelled shotty in a Godot project a 'Stubby' but uhhh
