- Comment on What TV cancellation are you most upset by? 3 days ago:
If streaming shows are fair game, Final Space. So much passion poured into such an excellent production and Netflix axed it after 3 seasons.
- Comment on Games can no longer use virtual currencies to disguise the price of in-game purchases in the European Union 5 days ago:
They’re not actually allowed to do that, by my understanding. It must be equally simple to accept all cookies as it is to deny cookies.

I oscillate the lever at a rate such that I cannot know whether the wave-trolley went through while the detectors were on or off, introducing further uncertainty.

Any Edgar Wright film, and the John Wick films

- Comment on Would you rather be trapped in Groundhog Day or the Truman show? 3 weeks ago:
If the groundhog day loop is infinite - Truman show.
If the groundhog day loop is finite to a degree I wouldn’t run out of media and art in the world, groundhog day.

Yeah the latter half of my comment expresses that.
- Comment on Ban misogynistic online pornography, review to propose 4 weeks ago:
On one hand, I’m overjoyed to hear that there’ll be some pushback against unethical porn. On the other hand, not sure I trust this particular individual to be the arbiter.
- Comment on Make your complaints heard about bad games, says Dragon Age veteran Mark Darrah, but "your $70 doesn't buy you cruelty" 4 weeks ago:
But you see how this is different right? I boycott the vast majority of AAA publishers too, for the same reasons. That doesn’t mean I cheer when they do mass layoffs. It doesn’t sound like you do either.

Of course there are innocent people, what the fuck.
Be gleeful about it failing to sell, yes. But don’t be cruel. Don’t be glad that people who did their jobs have lost their jobs because a CEO wants to preserve investors’ profits. All the bad decisions that made the game what it was, in a huge company like EA or Ubisoft, were probably because of upper management and not because the people who lose their jobs did their jobs poorly.
Dunk the game on reviews, tell your friends it sucks, hell even laugh at the grumbling of the pre-orderers or the captive audience of fans who will die on the hill. But don’t be cruel.
Be(e) kind.

You haven’t shared any opinions - just hateful falsehoods and bigotry.
- Comment on Celeste devs cancel lush platformer Earthblade to focus on smaller-scale projects 2 months ago:
Copying my response to a similar thread
I’m absolutely heartbroken but I respect their decision and it sounds like the appropriate way forward
Celeste came out of their approach before - I’m sure more incredible games can come out of this approach again.

- Comment on In The Lost Lands - (First Poster) Bautista & Jovovich. Dir: Paul W. S. Anderson 2 months ago:
This is bad in a way AI isn’t typically - look at Dave’s foot, floating above the skulls. Reeks of some intern just dragging in a greenscreen shot of the actors over an existing picture of a mound of skulls. Maybe the mound of skulls is AI generated but I don’t see any obvious signs of AI slop. Good old human slop here.
