I remember learning about the Hays Code in film school and how it made it so that any amoral protagonist had to meet karmic justice by the end of the film and going “wow, that’s really silly” and then once a week I log online and see people argue that we need stuff like that now or it’s problematic
Well, the people paying the conspiracy influencers and tuning up the algorithms don't want them to focus on that one.
It should come back because it was part of it.
But let's be real, that was real juvenile for what's supposed to be a man wholly driven by grief and guilt. It's not even a contemplation in trying to erase your sorrows with pleasure, it was just "manly man see woman, fuck" shallow edgy shit.
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
Spaces for kids have been destroyed or re-worked into stores, adult spaces aren't allowed to be actually "adult" lest we anger the CC companies, and supposedly neutral spaces are full of gambling/porn ads, disinformation, and right-wing pipelines. An internet that is increasingly not for anyone.
the continuing censorship of sexual content on the internet while the elite class still gets to use banks and credit cards when doing horrible things to children makes it obvious it’s about who has the money, power, and control, and not protecting anyone.
Similar phenomenon: NSFW content is incredibly policed from small creators on platforms that will then allow ads that are nearly softcore.
NSFW content isn’t censored if it makes money for big corporations, but individuals and small creators have to toe an arbitrary line of what counts as too much.
Not a single day goes by that I'm not driven to the brink of howling madness by:
A: Videogames being at their most diverse, creative and overwhelmingly numerous as ever.
B: The gaming press being utterly gutted by vulture capitalists, leaving fewer people than ever to try and understand it all.

Hear me out...
Univerally praised games are neat enough, but nothing hits quite like something unpopular that speaks to *you*.
So show-and-tell: Link and Explain a game that's UNDERRATED (sub-500 user reviews), UNDERRATED (sub 80% score) or BOTH (ideally!) that is near and dear to your heart.
A lot of people knows about Cassete Beasts, BUT just a few bit know about its predecessor: Lenna's Inception. Has great music, 2 modes of playing (32-bit and 8-bit) and its cool af. The world is glitching, and the protag, Lenna, has to take the role of hero...

...still gotta get myself to beat the Knight (without the Shadow Mantle)
Stray Children! It can be frustrating to play, but I couldn’t stop thinking about how it uses that frustration and anti-completionist design to a really interesting thematic end. I’m actually working on a blog about it

Oh man! Isn't that a name I don't hear in a while
This game is amazing! It's so interesting the ways it can go
If we can't even afford PCs because of AI server farms, I doubt cloud gaming will be affordable.
The US govt used AI in war and targeted civilians, Epstein list, everything's expensive, climate change will kill us all
But the issue is porn?
Step one in accepting your sexuality is realizing the world is a joke and ran by devils, so who cares if you jork it to micky mouse x Goofy, dude
But what if they replace the staff with a weirdo anti-artist fintech crew?
...oh wait
Not to mention, we can now make eldritch horror turned against his horrid views, which is also something beautiful.
There's still hope for his soul
Cat Burger - Gator Days Characters Catrick C. Cattington IV - Catfish - He might be a CEO of a company who is worth millions of dollars but he is just like you! Stuart - Quokka - A perpetually smiling Sectional Manager. He tackles every problem with motivational corporate speak intended to maximize collaboration and synergies among all employees. August - Alligator - A soft spoken single father who works in IT. Gustopher's dad. Transcript Panel 1 Catrick is filming an ad for a fast food restaurant's new product. He's excited to share it with you. He's wearing and tie so you know he means business but he also has a sweater vest on so you'll know he's friendly. He's also wearing gloves so he doesn't actually have to touch any food. There's a sign in the background that says "HOME SWEET HOME" which everyone hopes will disguise the fact that they're filming this in an empty conference room. Catrick: I'm taking a break from my busy CEO schedule to show you our new product. Yummy. Panel 2 Catrick is now sitting in front of a TV that says "CAT BURGER" with the Cat Burger mascot in the middle. Catrick: I enjoy consuming product while sipping a loss leader and watching content on the subscription service. Panel 3 Catrick has found himself two more food items from the Cat Burger menu. He's trying his best to keep them from getting too close to his mouth. In one had he has fries and in the other he has "Pistachio Spice" seasonal frozen treat. Does not actually contain pistachio. Catrick: I like to finish my meal by dipping my added value side in a seasonal item. I do this several times a week. Panel 4 Stuart is by the camera and giving Catrick feedback. No one has realized that no one has removed the cap from the camera. August from IT was brought in to see why the camera isn't recording anything. He's just standing there in stunned silence. He will not be getting Cat Burger for dinner. Stuart: GREAT WORK, SIR! Highly relatable.

Gotta wonder who is gonna pay for all that when customers have no jobs or money. Because rich people sure don't like to spend theirs.
It's funny seeing how this is news to some people
Being Brazilian and LGB-T-, going to the US/GDC has not been safe for me for a VERY long time
So.. no ABYSS X ZERO at GDC for the foreseeable future, sorry USians.
I really dont want to go through the transphobic visa process or get killed by ICE
They sure were quick to throw all of us under the bus when they got an excuse.
