- So many people not realising Death Stranding entire basic gameplay was inspired by this suggests that game critisism has failed on such a fundemental level that few critiques actually drew the rather important connection between real life and the game.Maybe one of the oddest professions in Japan is that of the bokka (歩荷). Porters who carry supplies to remote mountain guesthouses inaccessible to vehicles. A bokka uses customized wooden ladder frames to carry 100-165kg of supplies on day long marches (walk up, run down).
- Alright alright people want it so here it is. The Xbox 360 store is being obliterated from orbit on July 29, 2024 so I've written a non-exhaustive thread here of a few interesting games/DLC that will not survive*. Some are on sale others...not on sale.🧵
- We have reached the point in the discourse where derogatory "it looks like a PS2 game" is causing people to demand proof to prove that literal PS2 games are in fact PS2 games."It does not look like that on PS2" PS2 Silent Hill 2:
00:00 - The great thing about the Playstation 1 library is you can open a random game that averaged a 6/10 and it's an absolute banger that the reviewers didn't like because it wasn't Tomb Raider or some shit.
- The guy currently running google into the ground is the guy that ran Yahoo into the ground, epic
- Replying to @KalyoshikaCritisism is supposed to help you appreciate the media and world you engage with, if people are writing tens of thousands of words on Death Stranding and accidentally not mentioning the entire life and career that inspired the core mechanics - whoops.
- There is a specific piece of code in Microsoft Windows 95 that checks to see if Sim City is running so Win95 can change how memory is stored to work around a bug in Sim City (source joelonsoftware.com/2000/05/24/str…)
- "Well first David Bowie died then it all kinda spiralled out of control..." - intro to 2016 in the history books.
- Someone out there could get the jump scare of their LIFE if they ever find out the silly little game called FORCE OF SEX they made in RPG maker 95 on a cartridge with still surviving battery memory was found and uploaded to the internet, impossible to top.
- Replying to @KalyoshikaThe Dishwasher: Dead Samurai - The first title by indie dev James Silva, a hyper violent, high difficulty side scrolling character action game. Silva would develop his style further and release a sequel but original is stuck on Xbox 360 for some reason. Quite punk.
- Replying to @Kalyoshika"THis game is bad because it's not like the game I felt like playing" and "This game is too much like a game that exists so it's bad" Are so common in contemporary reviews, part of it is probably these people were reviewing dozens of games a month and not actually playing.
- You'll never be as aesthetic as Hamlet 1993, the final word on Shakespeare's famous play.
