  Procedural generation is fine.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨New ICJ president a Christian Zionist influenced by End Times theology⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Fucking lunatic

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Were Sony and Microsoft Truly Worried About The Google Stadia?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Obviously it was always going to fail, the more you abstract away ownership the less people will be interested in buying.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The psychogeography-est of Disco Elysium's spiritual successors is a gonzo journalism RPG named Hopetown⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  The corporate destruction and subsequent ridiculous fallout is incredibly disco elysium, I’m 100% here for all the successor studios.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch from Mercury -- Dare I say... not "woke" enough!?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s been awhile, but from what i remember they definitely expected to have more episodes to tell the full story that they just didn’t get.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Baldur's Gate 3 publishing director thinks GTA 6 might have the "clout" to normalise a $100 price tag⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Don’t forget the drop in necessary production costs, tools have only gotten better and cheaper while corpos have valued less and less.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Cubic Odyssey announced as a fusion of Minecraft and No Man's Sky⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Nms absolutely doesn’t hit the way Minecraft does, and it isn’t the blocks. Minecraft allows for much more free expression with what you build than NMS does (from what little I’ve played of NMS).

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨‘Cost of dying’ in UK hits record level as bereaved turn to crowdfunding to meet bills⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Just chuck my body into a local creek, thanks.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨'Take my data': US 'TikTok refugees' flock to alternative Chinese app⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Almost every country in the world opposes Trump, including most of the USA. He is objectively bad for the planet.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Minecraft gets new pigs, wildflowers and ambient features in the latest Beta⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  … They didn’t already have the leaf thing? Whatever, I’m not particularly interested in the update (or snapshot, i suppose), but it looks like they are filling out small details they’ve ignored or never even thought of, which is a good thing. I’d rather have fine detail than a half assed new system that’s disconnected from everything.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨South Korea | 'I got rape threats over claims I put a feminist symbol in a video game'⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  South Korea is beyond fucked socially.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨"The Water Magician" Anime Adaptation Announced with Teaser Visual, PV⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Man, and here i was almost interested. Thematically water magic is very nice, but then they go and ruin it with ‘the strongest’ as a protagonist.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨School shooting lawsuit reveals that Black Ops Cold War cost $700 million, the highest development cost yet reported by a publisher⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Fucking how?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨"Noble Reincarnation: Born Blessed, So I'll Obtain Ultimate Power" Anime Adaptation Announced with Teaser Visual⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Sounds terrible.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Israeli women mobilise against ultra-Orthodox military exemptions⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Even if we ignore the, you know, genocide, this really reenforces the cruelty. They just want to force more people to bear the weight of their horrid actions.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Funko issue a statement about the itch.io take-down, while also apparently calling itch founder's mom⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  What in the god damn? That’s seriously insane, hopefully funko takes some kind of hit.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Dread toy-peddler Funko Pop gets cool, handsome Itch.io taken offline via dodgy "AI-powered" brand protection⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Man, funko needs to sink. That low quality trash does nothing but fuck up the environment when people inevitably toss it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Sleep is important⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I haven’t gotten more than, like, 4 hours of sleep on a work night in the last month. The only reason I’m still alive is because my days are staggered

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I swear the time is like 1/6th shorter than it was before⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Time comes and goes, it’s weird. I don’t believe it exists. A few weeks ago an hour was nearly twice as long as it is today, a month before that it was even shorter.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Yea⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Yes.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨"Hell Mode" Anime Adaptation Announced with Visual, PV⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  You know, I’m heavily against video game isekai (ruined the whole genre grumble grumble), but that synopsis was actually written by someone who hates modern MMOs and i can at least be here for that

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The next Dragon Age game might be another "reinvention", say BioWare, drawing parallels with Final Fantasy⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  “we have no idea what we are doing” and “we don’t want to fuck up this badly again” but with more ego assuaging is what I’m hearing here.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨You’ve got ten days to pick up the original Warcraft I & II from GOG before Blizzard pull them, but GOG will support their preservation forever⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Eh, they weren’t that great.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Project Zomboid set for a massive update that should get a Beta before Christmas⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  The definitive zombie game, cataclysm dark days ahead. In my latest game i built a battle train.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Nintendo is targeting members of a popular Switch piracy subreddit | VGC⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  So this latest wave of pointless attacks is to try to destroy the competition of their next console, yeah?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨No Man's Sky Head Claims Team Isn't Close To Being Done With Game's Content⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Idk, old Minecraft generation was excellent. All they really needed to do was make it literally deeper/taller and make the biomes wider. The extreme and weird landscapes were rewarding to explore on their own back then. Imo developers just need to be comfortable letting interesting landscapes from instead of boring, uniform ones like NMS does. The novelty would eventually wear off, sure, but it’d last a lot longer.

  And community worlds is an excellent idea. Having custom planets, or hell even just things players have made in their games, show up would add a lot to any game like this.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Riot Games is cracking down on players’ off-platform conduct⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  On the one hand, i fully believe they should be able to target players they know are a problem without them strictly breaking TOS, but i tend not to completely trust corpos. Not that i care about riot games anyway.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2's first big patch is out with 650 fixes for crashes, progress blocks, physics and AI bugs⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  No a-life no buy.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Project Zomboid set for a massive update that should get a Beta before Christmas⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m more of a cataclysm gal than zomboid, but that looks like a great update

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Assassin's Creed Shadows to Feature Denuvo & Mandatory Ubisoft Account Linking⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  What the actual fuck? Is this game some kinda developer revolt? Are they trying to sink the studio?
