It's bizarre how repeatedly people keep hijacking the conversation about Accessibility away from things like closed captioning, colorblindness support, alt-text for screen-readers, etc, to "Games should be easier to play, books should be easier to read, and shows should be simple to understand"

"Tupac's estate" is not run by his family. It's run by some greedy corporate demon who seized it after his mother's death. In fact, his sister, who SHOULD be the owner/executor/etc of the estate, has apparently been trying to sue him for embezzlement.
So "approved by his estate" is just PR bullshit

Please chip in if you can. Carey is a great guy and an enormously talented actor who has been screwed out of his residuals by Adult Swim. Aqua Teen Hunger Force made such a positive impact on my life, it breaks my heart to see him going through it like this.
Frylock is the man.

Saw this on FB. If you’ve ever enjoyed Aqua Teen, please help if you can.
Someone who’s such an integral part of one of Adult Swim’s most beloved shows deserves much better than this.

Reading this interview with Richard Honeywood on his time at 90s Square starting up the localization department and learned so much.
FF's Dia spell = Dispel Undead?? Gold Needle was a soft acupuncture needle and that's why it can puncture stone??? Yuji Horii kind of sucks to work for????

![Time Extension: Dragon Quest VIII was the first mainline game in the series to feature voices. How much did that factor into the localisation process?
Honeywood: That was my first time working with Level-5. I met with them, and they were really super helpful. They had experience with foreign games selling more than Japanese games, so they knew that Dragon Quest could finally sell more in the West than it does in Japan if we play this right. So they were totally on board when I asked, 'Can we add voices to a game? But Yuji Horii was adamant, 'No, we're not going to add voices to Dragon Quest.'
He said, 'Dragon Quest is a traditional old-school game. We don't need voices.' So we had to say, 'Even like Final Fantasy has voices. We've got to keep up with the times.' He basically signed off, just see how it went, with the idea being that if it doesn't work, we won't do it again, but then Dragon Quest 8 went out and sold really well. After that, [Koichi] Sugiyama, Akira Toriyama, and Yuji Horii met, the musicians and Sugiyama-san said, 'Adding voice to the game really makes it feel different. We should do that going forward.' So they totally turned around 180 degrees when they saw the success. And that's why, on Dragon Quest Swords, they added voices to the Japanese version of Dragon Quest for the first time.
Time Extension: What was it like working with Yuji Horii?
Honeywood: It was sometimes a bit odd. I remember I would suddenly get a text or a phone call from the company saying, "Oh, Horii-san wants to fly to Paris, can you accompany him?' I'd tell them, I've got work to do. Why am I having to fly to Paris? Is this for work?' And they'd answer, 'No, he just wants a holiday, and he wants a translator or interpreter to go with him.' I didn't even speak French.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:755iakaobnmfqlbdoyojat5s/bafkreid4g3ewzuqpcwomum2dgaahmuhefdybyp5k55f4l2run7yth6ui2i)

We need more old-looking female characters in fighting games. It’s such a rare archetype.
We got plenty of old male characters. It’s a shame that Power Instinct is one of the few games that gave us these

There was narrative potential in SMTV Dazai's transition from a well-meaning but deeply insecure "influencer" into a zealot once a rigid ideology offered him direction and proximity to power, but having him reveal this by taking off a cap that reads SUCKER & slick back his hair is too goddamn funny.
