Is this an event worthy of an oval office press conference? Seems kind of off tone

"this task takes three times longer if I use AI, so I just do the task as normal instead of using AI" SABATOGE!
I think it would definitely look better seated on my couch than up close on a PC screen -- which has me thinking I should play it on console instead of steam deck. Although I have my visual concerns, overall I'm just happy it's getting a proper re-release with QOL features! More good than bad!
The classic mode doesn't have all the new features, though. I really wish there was a hybrid option.
What did you think about the sprites? Since the first trailer I thought everything about the game looked fantastic except the sprites seemed kind of muddled, like a blur filter was put over them. I'm not fond of it. It's not as bad as tactics ogre's sprite filter, but it's still my one reservation
Yeah, the modern map is very manageable for a newbie, but even though everyone says it's not worth doing I still wish they had a 1.0 legacy experience available so I could go back and try again. I don't have clear memories of it but what I do remember of it I liked.
I remember playing it at launch but made the mistake of starting in Gridiania, which was a unmanageable maze. If I chose the other starting area I probably would have played for longer.
I’ve watched this 6 times
I love the smell of consequences in the morning. Thank you, @dragoncon.org
It's a trap. The only winning move is not you talk to LLMs at all. Do not be nice to them. Do not be mean to them. Do not engage with them in any way at all.

Dang!
Funny old thing.
If I remember right you don't even need to hit yourself in the face. Queuing of the actions for your first three characters, then hitting cancel, then doing it again, counts for experience as if you had done the action -- letting you stack dozens of fake exp gain actions per battle.
I just borrowed this from the library recently! It's been a great "bedtime story" game to play for 20 or 30 minutes before bed. Kinda chill.
when i picture trump voters each time a policy drops eroding the american way of life, i picture this. which is generous, but i picture this for a lot of things, so i go there quickly.
The hoops you have to jump through to pretend this makes sense are so silly So Durham, who was trying to find evidence that Trump's opponent did a crime, FOUND IT, but instead of putting it in his report, hid it in a bag meant to be destroyed in hopes it would be found 5 years later? Ok.
Now this. This is a person of sophistication. Just a beautiful list of classics. Especially Mystic quest, evermore, and terranigma. *chefs kiss*

No joke I've thought about this gag for decades.
Every night, I say a little prayer before I fall asleep.
I think I'm coming up on a year of Linux now and I feel much the same way. I only need windows if I'm using an adobe program and I need them less and less.
In the four years I've been at IGN I've watched its staff shrink and shrink, all while those who remain are asked to do more and more. I see colleagues skip lunch, stay late day after day, and burn out. IGN staff are passionate and love their work. But we can't keep letting that be exploited.
TOAD WILL NOW PLAY THE PIANO VERY WELL.
A landlord turned off Tenant Client's family's heat upon learning Client was an immigrant. Landlord hired three different law firms to argue this was legal, then fired each one after they couldn't get our case dismissed. This week, landlord settled for enough that Client will buy a house.
this again
Got copyright struck for using an Infinity Train VHS as my example of what you can use these sticker textures for, which is terribly lame and weird. So now it's back up with the public domain movie poster for GORGO. Sorry for the inconvenience. oweeeeendennis.gumroad.com/l/videostore...
Same old story with their rhetoric. Jefferson has beliefs, Burr has none.
I only just realized now because of this post, that THIS is where I read Bone from the first time.
i think about this tweet every single day
i hope his house gets burgled and in the ensuing legal battle he is required to give up some stuff that's important to him that was never originally burgled, and also the burgler doesn't have to give back any of the original burgled items either
I think about this all the time but in a different context. My friends daughter is twice as old as my daughter, but in ten years she won't be. It's true and also feels weird.
people in the lower 48 don't usually think about how big alaska is. if you were to lay alaska flat over the lower 48 with the western aleutians in california, untold millions would die from the force of the impact and human civilization as we know it would surely be destroyed
Every time I open Disneyland Kinect, all I can think about is how it perfectly captures a very specific time in Disney Park history, and I wish it was in VR. I would love a virtual version of the park that you could cycle through wach decade and see the changes firsthand.
I love this
I excitedly imported it like way early, only for the discs to discover I hadn't bought a Japanese copy, but some very poorly made CDRs with labels printed in greyscale. It still worked with disc swapping but I was super disappointed. Also I didn't get very far playing in Japanese haha
Playing a Japanese game through machine translation, even one I've played many times before, was a bit of a weird experience though Even through an awkward language barrier, it's still shines as an amazing game all the way through. SNES is definitely the best way bsky.app/profile/sean...
I wound up playing through the Super Famicom version in Japanese this year while using it to test something. I only have planned to play for a few minutes, but it was so good I played through the entire game. I hadn't played it on the SNES in over 20 years, probably. Amazing.
heck yeah libraries get a library card at every library you see collect 'em like pokemon borrow everything, anything all the time borrow books for their cover art borrow music and video games and comics and magazines and audiobooks and tools, sometimes the library is the best
Zelda 2 is the best one
Oh! I have one of these! They're neat!
Good page. Bad pun. Shame.
1. "'Trusting the experts is not a feature of either a science or democracy," Kennedy said." It's literally a vital feature of both science and of representative democracy. I've written a fair bit about trust in expertise as a vital mechanism in the collective epistemology of science.
I've heard people hate on the superpad, but I remember it being a very comfortable alternative
I never heard of this.
"NO PAYWALL," boasts the post of the day, leading to a news story with a paywall
It made it so mysterious!
AOL was weird as heck. They had like .. exclusive websites? I remember my friend with AOL could get to webpages I just couldn't find on my mind AOL connection
Listen, I had to.
I should buy a copy of Quest 64.
oh the name tag I didn't realize that became a meme Man, internet, why you gotta
I don't know what that means Is it good that I don't know Should I not seek context and be content I don't know?
I didn't need to know there was an eggo egg. I could have gone my whole life without knowing this and I would have been fine, with completely unhaunted dreams I guess I'll never make a life like that now
No lies detected
lol
I hate it. Particularly this part where it celebrates itself What? No. That's not catchy, it's lazy and makes no sense
'blame' is a stupid word to use here as if there's something 'wrong' with not wanting to go to Vegas
Yeah that's really surprising to hear! I haven't played wow since lich king, and that's ages ago. XIV was never a problem. Maybe I found glitches in SWG or City of Heroes but I don't think so Skipping on in house QA is a wild choice
Man I've dabbled in lots of MMOs and I can't say I've ever encountered a bug like that. Maybe in just lucky? But seems that shouldn't happen.
That very clearly doesn't talk like a real person. You don't have to have known him to know that's not how the kid talked. Deeply weird.

I find it fascinating that *I* have showered but *sam* has used the toilet
This one was indeed good.
I wish I took a better image of this because I'd totally wear it on a T-shirt
room for millions!
i can only assume it's a privacy thing? Like didn't princess dianna spend a ton of time on a yacht to escape paparazzi?
To be clear,
I think most mini-game haters are really struggling with pacing, but are having trouble identifying what they actually dislike. Wall Market pacing felt off to me in remake. Rebirth is like wall market for the whole game. Gosh, both games do so much else right though. Perfect character portrayal.

I think it didn't have enough going for it at launch. Kart isn't enough. It's leaning too hard on "look we can play more third party games that aren't new," I think , even if just IS great for Nintendo only users who have been missing out.
I can see that perspective. Conceptually (again haven't used it) I don't like how iterative it is. Even the SNES pushed a boundary in otherwise known gaming with new buttons. I feel like this hardware is definitely less creative.
I'm kait glad I don't have to read 'super switch' ever again
it's more powerful? I donno. I haven't had a chance to try one I just know I always thought that was a terrible name idea I mean I'd play donkey kong but I can't afford a new console Maybe when we get 5 to 8 exclusive games I'll be able to justify it
my favorite thing about the switch 2 is that it isn't called the super switch and now that it's out people will stop saying that they should call it the super switch
man you've got to bend over backwards pretty hard to take that away from that cartoon and then use it as a reason to not donate to a charity
excuse me the what there's a WHAT
It's frustrating that downloading games on Heroic is better than using Epic's native app most of the time. GoG Galaxy is fine I guess but that doesn't run on Linux.
Must not have been very important

wrote about the dumb AI quote then kept going
I've been meaning to comment something like that for weeks! Every time I see one I always notice your name second, but in the same delightful way - "Oh that looks great... OH! It's Kimimi!" Keep eating games, ya monster.
oh weirdly excited about this! I never got to try this as a kid and i still haven't I was even thinking of collecting an old cart and finding a mouse
honestly this might be the coolest blog on the internet for me rn every post here is either exploring I love in a fresh way or introducing me to something cool and interesting I didn't know about
two hundred what
For a time this was YouTube, but I don't have the bandwidth for that or a vision I want to produce. I'm not part of a major platform right now. I don't know that I want to promote a blog. Think I'm just looking for something.
Yeah I mean it more like, When I post on social media it doesn't truly give creative value I need, nor give others a piece of work truly of their time. And express in a way that has value to me and value to those truly interested?
Thinking I might be done with the Internet I might be veering towards just making zines I've had an online audience and been part of big platforms. It all feels like yelling at brick walls and punching windows made of stone. I don't know that anybody needs my thoughts, but they need a new home.

peak social media usage, I think
you ever write a string of posts and then just delete it before you send?
