Reminder that the only time Mastercard has flinched is when outrage was directed at them. Attacking platforms like SubscribeStar for Visa/Mastercard's extralegal censorship is exactly the deflection they want.

🚨Going live on Twitch!🚨
We're back with Valkyrie no Bouken, but something's different... It's the full remake from Namco Anthology 2 on PS1! It tries to take the Zelda-like original and make it more like its more popular arcade sequel, let's see how that works out! twitch.tv/mattobii
This is false.
Jamal Harrison Bryant, a Megachurch pastor, has said the boycott is over. He is not leaders, plural. He and his church were not the ones to start the calls for boycott.
Nekima Levy Armstrong, who founded the Racial Justice Network, and other Minnesota civil rights activists were.
Into the garbage bin they go, right next to Target.
We don’t need your shitty brands! You’re expendable but trans people are not.
can't be emphasised enough that no matter how empty Valve's defense of lootboxes sounds, the lawsuit is also a trojan horse to censor violence in games so it's not a good idea to side with it lol
Please use every We The People cell in your body for this
This is called kidnapping and it’s a crime. Abolish ICE
"Why are younger players gravitating toward retro titles - and how should studios respond to this trend?"
Heroes III is the top-selling retro game on GOG... and almost half of buyers are under the age of 25.
GOG's theory: for younger generations that grew up with Minecraft and Roblox, graphical/technical fidelity *does not matter*, which is a huge market shift #GDC2026
hard not to read all this age verification and censorship shit as our deeply reactionary government got the faintest whiff that an unchecked internet severely interferes with their ability to propagandize and decided it had to die
If you are at all anti-censorship, I am begging you to leave a comment supporting this proposal. This would forbid payment processors from denying transactions because of 'risk.' People getting banned from PayPal, NSFW games delisted from Steam etc would be included in this.
Just to clear things up. This cover artwork was definitely not created by AI, but by the incredibly talented Pete Hentze, a long time Rare artist, and one of the concept artists on Conker: Live and Reloaded! 🙂
it's "funny" that this article is going to be used by the most annoying people in the world as proof that human translators go too far and should all be replaced by AI when the complaint is specifically about word-for-word translations that don't go far enough

We have to keep complaining:

Gonna once again point out that everyone has carried around a rectangle containing infinite pornography for the past decade minimum and society didn't dissolve so miss me with any weepy handwringing about smut.
Individual websites will not save us. Running from platform A to platform B will not work as payment processors and legislation will simply follow our trail
You have to speak out against censorship and surveillance legislation. Its the source of all of this.
Call your reps
Help
This is just astonishingly great reporting.
All of the crises the White House has claimed over the last 14 months were planned in advance. All of them.
And however much contempt you have for media outlets who reverently relayed Trump's claim to have no relation to Project 2025, it isn't enough.
The Singularity is upon us: Apple's AI summarized a text message that read "I'm still down to clown if you are" to.... "clown event still possible."
AOC came out swinging against age verification legislation and somehow the entire tech press seems to not have noticed?
Good lord there was so much more game at the end of Paranormasight 2 than I thought there'd be. The true ending requirements are going to haunt me for a while.
So, "Schrödinger no neko" isn't up your alley? How about a fully 3D JRPG about an amnesiac siren? This is "Shinkai densetsu Meremanoid". Already hacked the thing, got a half-width font, script dumped, the whole kit and caboodle.
Ping me if you know Japanese and want to translate it!
jk rowling is like the one exception to 'no ethical consumption under capitalism so it's detrimental and meaningless to scold others for their consumption since yours is unethical also'
you judge people who still cape for that lady, you make them feel bad about themselves
cannot stress enough that "separate the art from the artist" was meant for private individuals reconciling the art they love with its flawed creators and not meant for the ceo of a company driving a dump truck of money up to a bigot's front porch

You know what I literally never want to do, ever, in any circumstances, in this universe or any other? Have to actually expend effort to talk to NPCs in a video game
