21 years of 25th Ward and it still feels as sharp as ever. If it is, as I increasingly feel, the last truly great Grasshopper game, it’s at least a hell of a note to go out on, one undimished by their increasingly desperate output.

Maybe a little late on this, but i would like to be considered for any outlet looking for someone to review Final Fantasy Resonance! I have both a deep personal history with the series and a deep knowledge of the history and appeal Resonance is looking to evoke. i think I'd do a killer job!

I don't know how I missed this 't-girl sims' project by Oleander Garden and Blood Machine's label Asphodel Softworks, but this is probably my favorite part of the steam page, a clear statement against endless expansions and dead games / live services:

A game with ten expansions is invariably very muddled. It is better to have ten games, each speaking in their own voice, in an open, cross-compatible mod ecosystem. Noematica is not (will never be) a platform. We want to be equal partners with a community of DIY content creators, hackers and modders and so on. You're all awfully talented, and we hope you're willing to join us — at the end of the world, where flickering stars illuminate NOEMATICA.

Ghost Divers: Nodame Cantabile @ghostdivers.exportaud.io · 02/10/2026

This week on the podcast, we discover we actually have a lot to say about how Eva 1.0 is ostensibly the same content as the first six episodes of the show and feels devoted to hyper-fidelity to the original, and yet nonetheless it is also radically different in key ways. Listen now at exportaud.io!

Edited page from the Evangelion manga.

Panel 1: Rei in the Eva plug cockpit look up and says "You're... crying again..."

Panel 2: Shinji looking down at her and crying.

Panel 3: Rei says, "I haven't seen you cry like this before..."

Panel 4: Wide shot of the cockpit, Shinji is clearly visible but Rei is obscured by the seat. Rei says, "Why are you sad?"

Panel 5: Mid length shot of Shinji wiping away tears. He says, "Dummy... that's not it!"

Panel 6: Closer shot of Shinji wiping away tears, his hand and wrist now fully hiding his eyes. He says, "I'm crying because I'm happy... happy there's a new episode of Ghost Divers"

Panel 7: Closeup of Rei looking at him, somewhat taken aback.

Continuing to a second page.

Panel 1: Rei leans back in the cockpit seat, reflective. "... because you're happy? So you cry when you're happy, too."

Panel 2: Shinji finishing wiping his tears. Rei is continuing speaking from off panel. "I'm sorry, I..."

Panel 3: Longer shot of Rei laying in the cockpit seat, Shinji in the foreground looking at her. She says, "... I'm not sure... what expression I should make... at a time like—like this."

Panel 4: Closeup of Rei looking up, sad or wistful. "Even though I should be happy..."

Panel 5: Closup of Shinji looking down at Rei.

Panel 6: Closer shot of Shinji, near tears beginning to well in his eyes as he smiles. He says, "Well, it's you're happy——you should rate them 5 stars"

Continuing to the next page.

Panel 1: Closeup of Rei looking at Shinji.

Panel 2: Reverse shot of Shinji looking at Rei.

Panel 3: Return to the angle of Rei looking at Shinji from slightly further distance. From off panel, Shinji extends his hand towards her and asks, "Can you stand?"

Panel 4: Rei beginning to lift up out of the seat. She has taken Shinji's hand. Her eyes are closed.

Panel 5: Similar shot, but she has moved forward slightly, and her eyes are now open.

Continuing onto the next page. This one is colored, unlike the previous that have been in black and white.

Panel 1: A continuation of the panel from the previous page, but large and dominating most of the page. She holds Shinji's hand, and very importantly, she is similing.

Panel 2: Shinji's reaction to her smile, taken aback but moved. Over his face is imposed the cover art for this season of Ghost Divers. To the left of his face is text mimicking the iconic Evangelion title cards, which reads, "GHOST DIVERS: EVANGELION 1.0 YOU ARE (NOT) ALONE listen now at exportaud.io"

i understand the ultima online video essay wants to authentically present the classic version of the game as best they could but did that have to extend to doing an unironic "lol there's no WOMEN on the internet these two people cybering are probably two GUYS doing it isn't that SO FUNNY" bit

This is a good time as any to tell you that the diversity of Stop Caring was a complete accident. I didn't go out into the world looking specifically for women and queer people that wanted to write about video games. I looked at quality of the pitches and work, first and foremost.
