Meredith saying something I’ve spent a lot of the last couple years thinking about:

PSA: Darktide is 75% off on steam right now. Probably the best horde shooter since L4D and absolutely worth a try.

Now in your podcatcher: SHELVED BY GENRE continues THE FELLOWSHIP OF THE RING, taking time to discuss our love of bathtime with the fellas, ominous hedges, and of course, the man himself, the greatest secret Peter Jackson was too cowardly to film: rangedtouch.com/2026/03/13/t...

Nobody is talking about how inordinately hard Terry's theme in SF6 goes when everyone should be talking about how inordinately hard Terry's them in SF6 goes.

It’s so fucked up that for things to get done you actually have to do them

New video!
Ever wonder why everyone in Fallout lives in drafty old ruins filled with trash and skeletons? Ever get tired of the same stale takes on it? Have I got the video for you.

Whenever you parry an enemy on Dark Souls you must say "nuh-uh". for the full experience.

Totally. At stake here is the conflict between games as β€œcontent” (retrogressive behaviorist bullshit) and recognizing context. The entire notion of β€œdesign” is saddled with so much fucked ideological baggage, be careful out there folks.

The struggle to silence the inner-carnival barker that's salivating at all "the angles" you could take a piece to try and find your authentic actual feelings on a piece.
And then the horror when you can't find those feelings. Is it all just carnival barkers all the way down?

Text from interview
...I’m kind of quoting Bernard Stiegler here, French philosopher. We could deploy them without any sort of personal attachment. We deploy them with the sort of detachment of the philosopher, the detachment of, β€œAh, yes, you could make this case.” And in some ways, this is different than simply performativity or it leads you maybe to a certain sort of performativity, because then you’re not even deciding what you think about the thing, you’re deciding, Which critic do I want to be today? Which critic feels like the right critic? Do I want to make the cynical read on this? Or do I want to make the rehabilitative read?

Text from interview - 
Maybe most writers don’t go through this and stay with love in their hearts. I know what I like, that’s all there is to it. But for me, experience of the craft pushed me to a place where I could just see all of the possible pieces you could write about something. And then it felt more like picking which one I wanted to write. And that’s genuinely one of the hardest places to be creatively.

This interview with @austinwalker.bsky.social hits so many feelings I've had these past few years as I've retreated from Games Criticism.
The erosion of confidence in your own take due to too much experience is something I've felt but have struggled to articulate

Every billionaire in the Epstein files could drop dead tomorrow and the world would not only be fine, it would actually improve. The quality of our media would improve. Our environment. Our food. Our health care. Our technology.

there are very few things that i romanticize about my childhood and teenhood, but the emphasis on in-person mall/arcade hangouts was absolutely good for me and i hope that the teens of today who are embracing y2k trends are also embracing the pastime of wandering around a mall together

i was reading steam reviews of an indie game and i found one that i am 99% sure was partially written by AI and it just made me really sad. like you don't think you can write a steam user review by yourself anymore?
