I still buy physical, last I got was Kirby Air Riders with an Amiibo because I couldn't believe they made a sequel. The price was a hard pill to swallow though.

Ok but that's just how the bird sounds in real life, that's like saying cicada noises from Evangelion a haunting you through anime. imo a better example is the very specific and compressed bird sound in Ocarina of Time that can be heard in Glover and many other media.

It's different in that it's now just one click away. The harder it is to do the less it would be abused.

Journalists love using AI as a source because it's a creative way of using the passive voice which sounds more neutral. Instead of attributing an action to a person like "Elon Musk's Website Used for Generating CSAM" historically they'd use something passive, impersonal and vague like "Vulgar Pictures Are Being Generated On X", but if you're relatively informed you read past the phrasing and picture how Musk is accountable. Now journalists can use the active voice so it appears more tangible but pin in on AI to sound neutral and hold nobody accountable, which serves the status quo.

Indie games aren't made in a vacuum then shipped off to publishers. Publishers help with playtesting, QA, translating, certification, and in many cases even marketing in the middle of development. Even by your definition it's not as clear cut as you think.

So you would call Half Life 2 and Alyx indie games? But any game published by Devolver Digital like Loop Hero or Gato Roboto aren't indie despite having tiny budgets and tiny teams?

That's kind of a ridiculous definition. It makes way more sense to include criterias like team size and budget, however vague they are.

I'm colorblind so if my poop ever looked bloody I probably wouldn't be able to tell. So that's one use for a toilet camera I guess.

It just sounds like Italian B movie nonsense for the sake of being shocking. Not a hill I'd die on defending.

I think he's committing to the libertarian bit by doing this and keeping community notes. He truly only cares about himself.

Good news is it's flammable! Bad news is it's inside their appartement.

Those are great because they don't change the nature of the game. You just adjust the difficulty of the self-imposed challenge. It's still essentially the same experience. If you ruin the game for yourself by setting it too easy that's on you.

When people say stuff like "I just want to explore Elden Ring", that's like watching behind-the-scenes content or looking at a concept art book of a movie without watching the movie. It can be enjoyable but it's not a complete experience, you're missing the original context entirely. I wish people realized that.

I got Camellia's album that just came out and that I've been playing on repeat. Probably the most expensive digital album I've ever bought so I'm glad it'll all go to the artist. It's 17 tracks of J-core, speedcore, complextro if you're into that. https://cametek.bandcamp.com/album/chimera-dragons
