i will not stand for "larp" becoming the new "poser". there is nothing in this world that requires more genuine unbridled passion in the face of people calling you a total nerd than live-action roleplay

All character animations in Mega Knockdown are overrides on top of a 'base layer' populated with placeholder Jerma greenscreen sprites.
I can't remove these "Load Bearing Jermas" without rebuilding my entire animation system.

I can't get on board with the people who are like, "Oh, thank God, finally, no Disney or Final Fantasy in my Kingdom Hearts."
Look, I get liking Nomura's OCs and all, but what do you MEAN, you want to remove two-thirds of the very thing that I always felt was exactly what Kingdom Hearts WAS???

Kairosoft (the JP developer, not the India GenAI firm) is a very interesting standout in the industry. They’ve avoided a lot of F2P monetization and instead found a very core, dedicated niche to buy their (inexpensive) premium titles, and by the looks of it it’s paid off well
Wake up and damn, Kairosoft One Piece game huh

it is in absolutely everybody’s best interests to develop some hobbies aside from Phone
Someone actually did a study a while back that showed the most effective way to get women out of TERF groups wasn’t people trying to change their minds, it was them getting literally any benign hobby, like learning other languages or taking up needlework
You know who isn't getting radicalized? Guys who do ships in a bottle. Embrace model-building and avoid the pitfalls of right-wing extremism
