The Modern State of Game Development: A Call for Reflection
Game development has changed dramatically over the years, and not all of it for the better. As someone who’s spent time making, modding, and playing games, I can’t help but look at the industry today and see a troubling shift—one driven by reliance on shortcuts like AI upscaling, inflated development pipelines, and a lack of focus on optimization. These trends aren’t just disappointing; they…

"Listen. That wasn’t tactical. I lost it." LOKI S02E02 “Breaking Brad”
#mobius#mobius m mobius#owen wilson#lokitvsource#lokitvedit#marveledit#mine#not feeling normal about this at all actually#the subtlety of owen's acting here is everything to me#the way that mobius is so obviously torn up about hitting brad#his body language is closed off and uncomfortable#he's really beating himself up for his behaviour#but he powers through it because he wants to explain himself#but to do so he has to be vulnerable and that's hard for him#he's so used to making others talk but he doesn't do it himself#he's a yapper at heart but emotionally he's closed off to his own emotions#i love how in the 6th gif he listens to loki relate to his struggle (with an extreme example) with a soft smile#it's still sad yet it holds understanding that his friend is trying to make him feel better#he allows himself to be consoled by loki#and because of that support from someone he trusts he's able to open up#mobius my beloved#i love him with all my heart#i loved Owen's performance so much i think he's so underrated

remember guys: pirating from nintendo is always morally correct!!! jailbreaking nintendo consoles is always morally correct!! emulating nintendo games is always morally correct!!
#nintendo#nintendo direct#nintendo switch 2#switch 2#bro 80-90 dollars for 1 game is already crazy#then you have that some “physical” games dont even have cartriges anymore and are just download codes on a box#then you have the TECH DEMO INSTRUCTION MANUAL game being paid#then you have performance upgrades to games YOU ALREADY OWN that cost money#then you have the fucking discord call zoom ass feature#a whole ass button on your joystick#wanna press the button?? wanna use that feature that is one of the main draws of the console??#PAY NINTENDO SWITCH ONLINE!!!!!#FUCK YOU NINTENDOOOOOOOO RAAAAAAAAAHHH#btw this is 10x worse if u dont live in a first world country#bro i was already pissed that pokemon games will be more expensive in brazil#now all games will be more expensive in the whole world#thanks orange man wish that shot was aimed better and u died...

I think the 450$ Switch 2 price is all right and would have been easier to swallow if the games capped at 60$, the fucking instruction manual game was free, and Switch 2 Editions of backwards compatible switch games didn't cost extra just for more frames and better performance.
Edit: What's even worse? PLZA Switch 2 Edition is gonna cost you extra! For better performance!!! Don't get me started on Scarlet and Violet!
#/Like if you're not going to go full Kirby or Mario Party by adding a whole new chunk of DLC you are not worth not even 10 bucks#/Zelda with a GPS is dumb bros!!! that performance should be free with the console purchase!

finally
Splatoon 3 at a stable framerate
#real talk that's basically the only reason i wanted a switch 2 lol#like this has been what i've been saying for YEARS#legit don't care about the new games like. at all#i just wanna play the games i already have with good performance#and for anyone that says emulation it's really hard to get the controllers working without lag and i'm not sure multiplayer is possible#plus dev was stopped for that console because nintendo so mmmmmmmm#also sissy is there covering the order label for me

Liam Lawson ends the season with the same average of points per weekend as Daniel Ricciardo: 0.67
#a definite upgrade on performance according to helmut marko#and while I know this doesn’t reflect an accurate representation of the season and all it’s ups and downs#it feels like a bare minimum consolation#daniel ricciardo

I don't care if I can afford it, I'm not fucking paying that.
(if you're a nintendo advertiser or their social media person the blue text is for you. hands off and fuck off.)
#my post#“what about the digital-'' I AM NOT PAYING 80 FUCKING DOLLARS FOR A DIGITAL FILE THAT CAN BE REMOTELY DELETED#AND I'M NOT PAYING A $10 PHYSICAL MEDIA TAX FOR A GAME THAT WOULD /STILL/ NEED A DOWNLOAD TIME#LET ALONE FOR GAMES THAT ARE EVER MORE LIKELY TO BE UNOPTIMIZED AND RUN AT 30FPS ON THE “LOWEST'' SETTINGS#LET ME RUN YOUR IP ON A POTATO AND THEN WE'LL TALK PRICES#“the point of a console is to have preset specs that don't need to be custom-'' i dont fucking care. they don't care. pokemon scar-vi.#you look at the performance quality on that game and tell me they believe in optimization.

what does this have to do with music
#urbz#the urbz#urbz sims in the city#console sims#cozmo street#I guess you could generalize Cozmo Street to 'performers/artists'#but the development concept art specifically said 'musicians district' even before Black Eyed Peas were involved#and the inspirations seemed to be only based on pop singers

pro tip for anyone out there who for some reason *really* wants to lose absolutely massive numbers of hours of their life and especially sleep without even noticing. try modding skyrim. its slow. its hard. but it IS free.
#genuinely have spent. like. 50(?) hours over the past 4 days#getting seasons and a flora mod to play together right. which. sounds insane given how short that list is but.#i have learned a lot of modding terms :thumbsup:#i would now feel comfortable manually swapping files Inside a mod or mod patch.#which i may have to do given that the ground in riften isnt swapping out in winter and i *SHOULD* just be able to duplicate the ground-#-texture from the exterior then rename it to the riften winter ground name and load it on top of seasonal landscapes#which. im still a little iffy on the jargon but i think would just be making my own patch.#since its not any other mod overruling (i used more informative console to check) its just Not being overridden by anything In Winter#when i get home from work im gonna learn dyndolod properly and generate terrain and tree LODS#AND. grass caches! for performance but also for LODs :)#(LODs are low-res billboards put in place in distant areas so its not blank space (minecraft eg does not have LODs so the world just ends))#and rn my LOADED area is seasonal. but my distant areas are VANILLA. so the ground is all wrong and in the rift is a wall of yellow trees.#so i need new LODs.#my posts

Okay okay I'm gonna play Twilight Princess again soon (I can't stay away from it for long) but I need a bit of help
When I play it again I kind of want to challenge myself to do something. Preferably a challenge throughout playing, but one to do during the run is fine as well.
Here's the issue. I've already beat Twilight Princess on every console it came out on. I've beat the cave of ordeals multiple times. I've done a 3 heart run where I beat the cave of ordeals. I've obtained every golden bug multiple times. I've gotten all the poe souls. I've gotten every item in the game and upgrade. I've collected all the stamps in the wii u version. I've collected all the heart containers/pieces of heart, and I beat the cave of shadows and set things up so I could have a full set of heart containers for wolf link if I scan my amiibo into breath of the wild. I even performed multiple glitches on both the wii u and gamecube versions of the game, including following my favorite speedrun for Twilight Princess from beginning to end.
So...does anyone have any other challenge ideas?😅
#legend of zelda twilight princess#loz twilight princess#loz tp#twilight princess#The only thing I am vetoing is low% speedrun. my guy I'm not keeping a console on for hours so I can perform the glitches required for low%#edit: I've also beat every dungeon without the use of the dungeon map or compass. And I've played around with getting the least amount of#scents as possible in the game without using a guide for pathfinding or using glitches to skip it

I wound up with Mario Kart World because the bundle was all that was available when I happened into being able to get a Switch 2.
I've never been invested in Mario Kart, but the open world is colorful and not too straining for the 100% stuff. I'm also not sure why there's so much whining online about the reduced emphasis on traditional 3-lap courses, because a lot of the intermediary stuff is fun even when it's mostly straightaways.
#Mario Kart World#The Switch 2 is nice for faster load times and improved performance on Switch games#But since MKW is currently my only game actually for the console I'm trying to get some enjoyment out of it

motherfucker i am NOT spending 700 dollars to play mario kart did someone drop a weight on ur skull??????
#jackkal#console + mk + nso#helll to the nope. looks like the most fun mario kart game ever made.#i bought a vr and that was the most expensive thing ive ever gotten for something like that and id never do it again HAHA#even just owning something that delicate and expensive stresses me the fuck out but at least vr is unique and cool#and at least my vr was MINE. forever.#i sincerely hope this is the majority opinion and they shot themselves in the foot#i do in fact want worse graphics and performance for a cheaper price!!! 1080p max wouldve been fine for mee#im not paying 50 bucks a year on top of all that and lets be real. theyre gonna raise the price of nso lmfao
