Also for those who use this as a reason to dunk on game journalists yet again: Go pound sand.

Game critique and journalism does not require one to be skilled at video games, and it never has. Get outta here with that logic.

So yeah, play on whatever difficulty makes you happy. Turn on cheat codes if you want. Play Psychonauts 2 with the invincibility mode on, as long as you're enjoying yourself.

Just don't belittle those who don't play on the same level as you.

As a minor note, they're striking because of things like 80+ hour mandatory overtime with as little as 8 hrs between shifts, oh and SOMEONE DIED ON THE FACTORY LINE and mgmt had the body dragged away before paramedics got there, so someone could REPLACE THEM twitter.com/DocJujiMcFly/statu

what's cuter than a mini in a racing game? a mini that's been renamed "mimi" for copyright reasons in a racing game

and yet, haha fuck, i feel like i'm not doing nearly enough! i don't draw nearly as often as everybody else, my last music release was already almost a whole year ago, i barely have anything to show for myself

Show thread

this is why i end up missing deadlines or delaying things i promised. i can barely get up in the morning some days. i don't know how to stop myself because i keep feeling i need to be as good as everybody else in my timeline who i envy so much

Show thread

i already have a full time job and i keep trying to be as productive as i can doing hundreds of different little things with every last ounce of my free time trying to match and/or impress my peers and it's not a healthy life to live

Starting my new lobby group, Speak Up For Soccer. Our stated campaigns are to ban kids playing rugby, ban rugby clubs and coaching for teens, and ban adults from playing rugby. We're not anti-rugby, we're a pro-soccer rights group.

Invincibility options in games are nice, but I feel games need to take it a step further and present these options in a cool cracktro screen:
