Wile E. Coyote, despaired, takes a bucket of paint and a brush and paints a beautiful two-bedroom house on a mountainside. He paints a beautiful coyote wife in the window, and two adorable coyote kids running around in the yard. He tries to enter this new coyote life, but it is inaccessible to him

i was workshopping a joke about romantasy, so i idly went to the wikipedia page and scrolled to "notable examples." under literature, there's twilight and acotar. films, there's princess bride, beauty and the beast. and the single video game listed, the one, is xenogears? xenogears ? xenogears ??

Check out these new looks for Pyra and Mythra! You can obtain them as rewards in the new Merc Assault mode, or by scanning the Pyra and Mythra amiibo. Once you've obtained them, you can switch between the new styles in Game Settings under Options. #XenobladeChronicles2 #Pyra #Mythra

On this day 15 years ago, we launched our first game, Bastion. To everyone who helped the Kid survive the Calamity, thank you!!🙏 You're the reason we've been able to carry on as an independent studio ever since.

blind spots do happen, impossible as they may seem, and i have no reason not to trust the folks at GDQ who were deeply upset, blindsided, and quick to react to a stream-in-progress

Games Done Quick@gamesdonequick.com

We have canceled our sponsored stream with SNK. We have heard the concerns from our community regarding this partnership, specifically the company’s majority ownership by Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund, and the human rights concerns tied to the Saudi government.

Obviously a kindle is an ontologically evil device and in the amazon ecosystem and everything, but it's still kinda shocking to me that when you open a book, it will skip past the dedication, epigraph, and table of contents to put you on the first "real" page

Cannot find it for the life of me but there was this one tweet edit of this scene captioned like "Xenoblade 3 if it was released in 2008" and the moment he chucks the sword there was a needle drop of like "what I've done" or something I'm not describing it well but it was funny you gotta trust me

as someone who was carefully (and maybe only half-intentionally) directed away from creative fields as I grew up, it's crazy that we're getting to a point where this applies even to the boring-but-lucrative thing I was ultimately pushed towards instead of video games or writing: software engineering

Dr. Emily Friedman@ecfriedman.com

I think about this a lot — so much so that I recall saying to one Actual Play person who is my age/career stage that we have similar challenge: our successes are not replicable by the route we took, but we ALSO want to help folks figure out new paths.

every time i see people taking the stairs in FF7 Remake I wonder how many people never even see some of Barret's best lines in the game because they're exclusive to the elevator route
