Thought this was a reference to the hardcore band for a second… seeing them next month for the first time. I’m pumped! Sucks the malware is back
- Comment on Samus Aran drawing I made 1 week ago:
Not surprised you skipped other M. I haven’t heard a single good thing about that one
- Comment on Samus Aran drawing I made 1 week ago:
I had so much fun with dread earlier this year. It motivated me to buy and mod an original GBA so I could finally beat the copy of Fusion I’ve had since I was a kid. That really got the ball rolling on me finishing as many Metroids as I can ahead of Prime 4. I think I’ve finished 4-5 now. Still haven’t done Super Metroid, which everyone tells me is the best, but I’m a snob and I want to get a Super Nintendo controller to play it with.
- Comment on Samus Aran drawing I made 1 week ago:
Only a couple more weeks until Prime 4!

Yes, there are some pretty fun weapons in the Gears sequels. I like the torque bow.

- Comment on Alberto Mielgo defends the Marathon cinematic as "not AI," denies his team touched Bungie’s plagiarized material and calls the art theft incident a genuine mistake that was "blown out of proportion" 1 week ago:
Yeah his framing is pretty trumpian which is gross even in the (doubtful) event he’s actually right. God forbid journalists do journalism and cover a company which has been caught stealing IP multiple times, and god forbid someone ask someone involved what their take was on the matter. Dumb.
- Comment on Alberto Mielgo defends the Marathon cinematic as "not AI," denies his team touched Bungie’s plagiarized material and calls the art theft incident a genuine mistake that was "blown out of proportion" 1 week ago:
“I understand that you like to stir up controversy, so here you go: the whistleblower, the truth seeker. This is my account, so here’s how I actually feel: you’re wrong and misinformed,” Mielgo replied. “No assets. As far as I know, Bungie accidentally used a texture, mostly typos and fonts, all lost in a wonderful massive creative pipeline.
“All this ass it was genuinely a mistake, blown out of proportion by people like you and hungry sphincter press. Regardless, to your pseudowistle, none of the text/fonts ever reached our team. The Bungie team is fantastic, and the work they did before us was f****ng outstanding. I loved working with them.”
It’s fuckin weird for a creative to act this dismissive towards IP theft, even if it was just one texture. How does one even accidentally steal a texture someone else made?

I stopped using Kagi because I felt their base tier didn’t include enough searches but if they keep this up I may go back.

- Comment on Sony cracks down on Concord custom servers, issues DMCA takedowns on gameplay videos 2 weeks ago:
I said always, I just used an example from this century
- Comment on Sony cracks down on Concord custom servers, issues DMCA takedowns on gameplay videos 2 weeks ago:
I don’t even think they really hid it from the console space. Their entire PS3 launch was peak hubris. They just don’t step on rakes as much as Microsoft does, and Nintendo would shoot a litter of puppies if it helped them protect their IP rights, so they look better in comparison.
- Comment on Sony cracks down on Concord custom servers, issues DMCA takedowns on gameplay videos 2 weeks ago:
Turning into? They’ve always been this way. It’s been like 20 years since they decided it was ok to install rootkits on people’s PCs to protect their IP rights.

From what I’ve read this is the “NSFW” version known as Gork which is designed to talk like an edgy teen movie douche from 2005. You have to enable this persona.

- Comment on US | Trumps tries to change the constitution so he can serve a third term 4 weeks ago:
I won’t put anything below the current court but at the same time the 22 amendment isn’t ambiguous in the slightest.
- Comment on US | Trumps tries to change the constitution so he can serve a third term 4 weeks ago:
There’s no realistic path forward for them to get an amendment passed to allow this. If they want a third term for his unholiness, they’ll need to violate the constitution even more blatantly than they already have been.
