The best advice I have for writers is: the harder you try to impress people with your prose, the worse your prose will be. Sit down and try to communicate honestly, you will find the places for your flourishes and metaphors that actually serve greater meaning rather than your own ego.

I am unbothered by critique, in fact I think it's fair. I dont feel like my video is talking about something no one's ever discussed before but I can see his perspective.

Nick is a respected critic and I would do well to listen plus he's mainly critiquing the way I framed some info which is fair

Genuine question: what do you even think youre getting at here? Do you believe that this is some "gotcha" moment and that I do not detest this as well? Are you so foolish to think that my principles do not extent outside the bounds of a single tweet?

The most important part, for me, is how we push back on the idea that gets shared a lot that "you wouldn't remake a book" when, uhhh yes you would! It's a very common practice and I find it weird that such a silly talking point gets used so much

Remakes Are Good, Actually

NEW EPISODE IS LIVE

In retrospect, I'm not sure I'm willing to die on the hill for some of the opinions we hold here, but it still felt like a good conversation to unpack the way we talk about video game remakes.

"Why isn't Xbox issuing a takedown notice??"

They don't want to! They profit off of this!!

When you buy Xbox games, when you promote them uncritically, this is what you are helping fund.
