One of the best plot twists of all time, with the dialogue and acting to match. "Someone extremely dear to me was lost very early in my life. My mind has always plagued me with the question: If the choice had been placed in my hands, could I have saved her?"
This all happened cause a guy missed his wife a lot

"So listen, there's this character, he's in a web-series made up of 17 seasons and a movie, the character is only in 3. And its one of the greatest vocal performances of all time, and the va's only other acting credits is one movie and some RT shorts." John Marshall Reed

Me when I have definitely read the New Jedi Order
The Yuuzhan Vong were the first thing written out by Disney's Lucasfilm because they force a paradigm shift. When "Literally Nazis" are the deterrent for "Literally Chaos" AND instrumental to getting rid of them, were the Rebels really the heroes for opening the gates to them?

The Yuuzhan Vong are awesome and the Empire wasn't doing jack shit to prepare for them! One guy had a pet project that did next to NOTHING textually and the books repeatedly grab the reader by the throat and explain that this series is about being better than either of them.
The yuuzhan vong suck shit and the rebels had no idea the evil fascist Empire making their lives misery was doing so because of them because the evil fascist Empire didnt tell anyone. Plus, SW wasn't conceived to feature this fucking guys in it

With Death Battle finally doing Ruby vs Maka, were about to see the most Scythe action ever. Which has me thinking about Joel Mann, easily one of #rwby's best but least appreciated animators. Never failed making Ruby the coolest Show: Rwby Animator: Joel Mann @spacedmann

UPDATE: CALLING ALL ANTI AI SLOP STAR WARS FANS. If you saw this, you should know that DarthAngelus has released Part 1 of the sequel, Dark Force Rising. Direct link in tweet below, check it out
It is a bad joke. but it means we should make extra sure to support real art from Star Wars creators. DarthAngelus for example, created a full 3 hour long animated Heir to the Empire adaption with ZERO genAi. The antithesis of the AI Slop Wars deluge, check it out

On the subject of Kotor character interactions, its been over 20 years since 1 and no CRPG since has been able to truly capture anything close to the dynamic of how delightful it is to push Bastila's buttons at every opportunity through flirting. Nothing else has ever matched it
The first KOTOR game has fun charming little character interactions that sort of imply at friendships abd dynamincs between the companions themselves and beyond just the player, so it kind of rules that KOTOR 2 has just the worst vibes in every one of those interactions.

Here: youtube.com/watch?v=YCwcettr… And shout-out to Star Wars YT'ers who helped highlight part 1, like @EckhartsLadder and @SCentralized standing against the slop isn't easy, especially when so many of your contemporaries embrace it, but it is worth it

“NATLA fans are all just Zutara shippers and fire nation stans who don’t want the sole survivor of a genocide to ever act like it cause it gets in the way of there headcanons” is the most vindicated stereotype of all time

My biggest pride is that AI could never make my game

This is where we are: people are now describing writing without AI as “manual laboring the words out.” Writing is thinking, and if you’re not doing the work, you’re giving up the ability to think. What I never imagined is how eager many of us would be to abandon thought.
as soon as AI is good enough to write blog posts in my voice as good as I would have written them, i intend to use AI to do so. I know what I want to say, and I could say so much more if I didn't need to manual labor the words out one by one

Just truly upsetting how quickly this scene became invaded by clout chasers, self aggrandizing posers and people who simply do not give a fuck about games. I'm so tired of this.
decomp.dev, a site to track decomp progress, is being sunsetted after 2 years. this is due to a lot of reasons but i'll cover the main reasons in this thread.

Talk about the most well characterized characters in ATLA, the Gaang would take 5 of the top 5 spots Do the same with Korra, and the top 5 is Korra, Tenzin, Jinora, Lin and then what? Suyin? Kai? VARRICK??? Either way, its nobody from her official team, and thats TLOK's big sin
