“Super Mario was based on an Italian man I saw die in an accident on a construction site. I thought to myself, ‘What if that man had been killed by a gorilla, rather than negligence?’ - Shigeru Miyamoto
Happy Mario day!
almost impressive how he doesn't even pretend to be human
I assume most (and ideally all) of those people got paid for their hard and valuable work. I hope the Geofront people too got paid by NISA after their script got used for the official release, at least as a basis.
The Fractal North truly is an evergreen design. I have this one in black and even a year in I am still impressed by its clean look. Very easy to clean too, the front just pops off and has a handy dust filter.
Kyle wolf @CRXSSF4DE . someone on the Motorola forums was having the same problem with the camera I've been having, but I just have to share the image they posted to demonstrate the issue. it's the funniest shit I've ever seen in my life dude The photo is of an elderly woman in gray clothes that has been so bizarrely processed that it looks both totally over and desaturated
This is the aesthetic of the future
Been playing Cronos: The New Dawn, Bloober Teams newest horror game. Loving its atmosphere and tough as nails combat. As befitting any scary horror game, there are cute cats in the game that you can, of course, pet. #gaming #cronos #cats
Keep it up everyone, if we just keep making games with women and pronouns we can eventually ensure that the chuds never get to enjoy a single new video game ever again
Probably canon, too. Those titans have plenty reason to be pissed and screaming all day
Just started up the new DLC for Indiana Jones and the Great Circle. Pretty neat to also see parts of Rome outside the Vatican. If you explore a bit, you can also find a cat to pet (supposedly one that is not too fond of fascists). #indianajones #gaming #cats
To be fair here, I think that so much stuff is happening so fast, that academia just hadn't had time to reallly sit back and just try to understand all this. Once you accept that GamerGate is important, talking to people who were in the middle of it is vital.
I believe the technical term may be "eye's cream".
Playing SW Jedi Survivor right now. While performance can be a bit rough, the game itself is quite stellar. Also love small touches like being able to pet these creatures, called boglings. In the first game you saw them from afar, but never being able to touch them (afaik). #gaming #starwars
and somehow, at the same time, unimaginably hot
Been playing #OldSkies by #WadjetEyeGames, the devs of many great PnC adventure games like Unavowed (not to be confused with Obsidians recent RPG) and the Blackwell games. I love their take on time travel in this one. It's not a topic I usually enjoy, but this feels like a very fresh take on it.
What, you think astronomy is just the science of looking at stuff through so-called "telescopes"? Nonsense. Every child knows it's all witchcraft, with powerful astro witches creating new celestial bodies out of the ether.
Feels like this is part of a Yakuza style scam. Expecting four dudes, built like a brick to come around the corner and demand you pay a ridiculously high hospital bill
Trails in the Sky the 1st cutscene comparison between the original release & the remake revealed in today's Dengeki livestream. (Part 1 of 2)
the added cinematography is super impressive. I can't imagine them maintaining this level across the game. Probably only in important story scenes like this.
I think there is a deeper lesson here: while you need to balance the ability to budget your games with your creative vision, the other extreme of just chasing money without any understanding or care for the creative side will never lead to lasting success in a creative medium.
Instead of building up BioWare to make the best out of the kinds of games they know how to do, they always have them chase live service, only to then crash and abandon it again. Anthem wasn't even doing to poorly, but EA dropped it like a hot potato for not meeting silly sales targets.
Actually, Dragon Age Inquisition was one of BioWare's best selling titles. This is actually the funny thing: There is no reason to treat Dragon Age like it's this weak franchise. It has massive potential. It's just that EA and BioWare middle management is dumb and treats it like shit for no reason
A screenshot from the video game The Legend of Heroes: Trails Through Daybreak 2, showing the cast taking a group picture, against the backdrop of the Montmart bistro.
Done with Trails Through Daybreak 2. Enjoyed this game quite a bit, despite a lot of naysayers in the Trails community, I thought that it acted as a decent extended epilogue to Daybreak 1. So sure, I can understand not being a fan of that, but for what it is, it's great. #Trails #JRPG #Kiseki
This guy sure loves Signal.
Not that play great many games in TATE mode, but this isn't such a horrible idea for gaming, I don't think.
Actually, that might be kinda sweet if you are close enough to the screen. It's basically the same idea with curved horizontal, if the screen is big enough, it gets harder to keep it all in view without moving your eyes. So the curve helps make things feel more immersive.
Orc biology be a strange thing indeed
They were probably less concerned about what the celestial bodies are doing, but how the weather will be next month, and whether they will have enough of a harvest this year to survive.
Actually, I would assume it's in line with the beliefs of most of the population for most of history. Up until maybe two hundred years ago, literacy was a rare skill and most people wouldn't get any kind of education but instead work farmland, where only an understanding of local phenomena is key.
My first thought seeing that quote was that it's actually an order, directed at Ben Aaronovitch .
"See, that's you write books, Ben. Read it!"
Clearly the handiwork of loose bread haters. smh
