I can't stress this enough and men gotta know this. Women already know, but us men need a firm sit-down about it sometimes: 2-in-1 shampoo + conditioner does not exist. They are lying to you. It makes you BASICALLY clean enough but it does not actually condition appropriately.

I had this recently with the game I'm working on (small indie). I wanted the main character's name to be open to discussion so we could keep thinking of ideas, but ultimately I found that I was just willfully slowing things down because we soft-settled on a name a while back & I wouldn't sign off.

The more years that I do it, the more certain I am that game development is just looking up keywords on google. I would say 90% that and 10% idea-having, but I don't even know if I believe in idea-having anymore. You look up the words to use and then you're directed by the words.

This is my go-to controller for most 2D games on PC. Modern major controllers' shared big weakness is good D-Pads and this has an incredibly good one. $25 is the best deal you could get on it.

I think something that gets lost when talking about games industry stuff and monoliths like GTA6 is that that's not "talking about game development." This is Talking About Game Development. It's more fun, actually tries to get at what it is to make stuff, divides people instantly, breeds hate, etc.

I could never talk to coworkers about anime because they were a bunch of guys who watched Attack on Titan or whatever and meanwhile I was watching lesbians do this

I just had a programming question that I looked up and only found one person actually asking it in a way that is relevant to my work. It only had one answer, which was from another person saying that you should "just use copilot for writing that sort of thing." It's over gang.

Psyched to have my first byline on Design Room! This article was a lot of fun to write, based a group interview with @rodkin.online @jaredej.bsky.social @thatdave.bsky.social @sasquatchers.wtf and Dave Bogan (who I don't think is on Bluesky).

the thing about "I want shorter games with worse graphics made by people who are paid more to work less and I'm not kidding" is that these games exist and are out there and you have to make the conscious choice to seek them out instead of just expecting the big companies to deliver this

I said the character name and movie name and the images are all the correct guy, and then the AI comes in and says "yeah, Tom. From Tom & Jerry. Can't fool me. You think I don't know Tom & Jerry?"

A google search for "Tom Interstellar," where the image results are all the character Tom from the movie Interstellar, but then the AI overview takes a wild swing and firmly assumes I mean Tom from Tom & Jerry.

I don't know how to reckon with the conflicting information that: 1. "The Citizen Kane of ___" means the best of that thing 2. I don't necessarily think Super Mario 64 is actually the number one best game ever and 3. Super Mario 64 is the Citizen Kane of videogames but, they are all true.

Video games are losing ground in the physical market and, frankly, that's been on its way ever since disk drives stopped being standard in home PCs. But I'm going to be pretty sad if that's the last straw for movies on physical media too. They are coming from the same blu-ray disc factories, mostly.

People who don't understand why Odysseus wanted to hear the sirens' song probably also don't want to taste Switch games or smell the visibly sour milk. You gotta hear it. What are you going to do, not know and be boring?

Indie studios and solo devs are constantly talking about how impossible it is for them in this climate, they also need investment, they also need the industry generally to be healthy. So this "who cares about AAA anyway?" crap I keep seeing is as clueless as it is crass.

My original post has... dramatically escaped containment to say the least. I cannot respond to all replies, but for a little more context on what the whole point of what I'm talking about is:

I understand the distaste for AAA, believe me. But no, taking the money out of gaming will not improve games. It will just unemploy developers. There can only be so many hits per year. If they are all small-team indies, that's <300 people in the world making a living making games max. AAA is jobs.

If video game hardware becomes unobtainable for current children, there is no chance of this generation imprinting on it like the last two generations of children have. They will not grow into the adults we have now; the ones spending money on games. Games will end as we know them.

I haven't spoken a whole lot about the games industry here lately because, really, what can anyone say. I need neither lie about hope for the future nor make redundant doomerisms others already have. All I can say now is that, while I have kept busy with a few things, I too am looking for more work
