We are, at some point, going to have to talk about how action games, and Western action games especially, have become incredible homogenized and extremely boring to play. There is very little room for player expression or cool tech. A lot of them feel very Simon Says, paint-by-numbers-y.

New comic! Possession might be nine-tenths of the law, or possession might be theft... We only know that possession of a game doesn't guarantee you'll ever play it! 😇

There were some amazing #indie music games at #gamescom! Legends of Rock by @arikgames.bsky.social, @mrrecords.bsky.social through @wiredproductions.com and of course chatting with @curvegames.com about @waxheadsgame.bsky.social. The icing on the cake was a busking concert with these legends.

Yay!!! Time for some low key old-person thirst! Absolutely 💯 quality game content.
It looks like Steam re-reviewed Future? No Thanks! and removed the "frequent nudity or adult content" reverting the Germany geo-ban and the age verification by credit card in the UK.
It officially has only "some nudity or adult content" as every good game should.

Update: even after we removed the entire sex quest, Steam mis-classifies Future? No Thanks! as pornography, making it invisible to most Steam users and completely geo-locked in Germany.
We are currently at Gamescom in Cologne, everybody is asking us why they can't see the PAGE of a Teen rated game.

Many great pieces on Dolly Parton this week, but @rahawahaile.bsky.social's in Scratch is by far my favorite. Just a jaw-dropping piece of beautiful writing.

There it is. While you struggle to afford groceries, or find any that are edible, and pay thousands more every year in gas, rent, utilities, childcare, and healthcare, they are laughing all the way to the bank.
