i feel like people confuse angst with depth too much
suselle has plenty of depth i think it's meaningful that noelle falls in love with a girl who inspires bravery and is not tied to the past while susie experiences love from the first monster who showed her kindness

People who have used an Xbox controller to play SNES games--do you map your controller based on button names (A = A, X = X, etc.) or based on button position (A = left = B, X = top = Y, etc.)?

Had a stray daydream that the next 3D Mario game centered around Astrology, with power ups based on a new in-universe Zodiac.
Both Rosalina and Kamek are revealed to be super nerdy about it and share it with their respective alliance, and Bowser goes sicko with it.

i try to brighten my friends’ days by sharing good news whenever i see it, but this now being the third time i’ve seen very positive climate news lately, i’m gonna get a lil mean:
climate doomerism is misinformation and spreading it, even just in jest, is antithetical to the values you espouse.

Assuming Metroid Ravenous is developed by MercurySteam again (which...come on, duh), it's worth noting Samus Returns was a remake while Dread was a revival of a years-old concept. Ravenous, in turn, may well be a fully original MercurySteam creation.

Fun fact: "Reviewing an AI made translation" is more work for translators than just translating it themselves, because AI translations do not pass the sniff test beyond the most superficial. It's a loophole companies use as an excuse to underpay translators, and nothing else.

You know, I'm still not the biggest fan of Star Fox 2026's character designs, but at least when they took a swing on the new style they committed and stayed internally consistent.
Instead of, say, packing Detail into every square inch of key characters while simply HD-ifying everyone else.

Legitimately what reason is there to buy the OOT remake? It looks more realistic and plays a bit smoother, but no way that's worth $60. I can already play OOT on my Switch 2.

What's ironic, is OoT is about the unstoppable passage of time, winds shifting, lives changing. Childhood drifting away, memories fading, friends grown apart, unrecognizable next time you see them. It teaches you that things cannot remain the same.
The purpose of the remake is to remain the same.

the entire reason the gaming industry is so dogshit right now is the domino effect from "putting aside" lootboxes. "putting aside" any controversy only serves to benefit from the people causing it, this isn't new and we shouldn't "let it slide sometimes"
Gen-AI controversy aside, after 30 minutes with Crazy Taxi: World Tour, it feels like classic arcade Sega - and it's an absolute blast

I wrote an essay about why I'm done using AI for coding, even if it costs me my job and career: brettcodes.com/im-done-usin...
The basic gist is: AI made me a worse, apathetic programmer. I think it's bad for humanity, the planet, and the craft of software engineering. And I'm done using it.

Why I'm stopping using AI for coding (and anything else) after using it earnestly for a year and coming to understand the harms it causes on personal, societal, and environmental levels.
