  • Cyberpunk platformer Replaced catches another delay for "final tweaks" based on demo feedback

    Jump

  • I can't quite tell from the trailer if it's what they're doing, and unfortunately I can't find the video about this that I watched recently, but I wonder if they're talking about "animating on 2s"? It's a technique where the character's animation only changes every other frame, which gives an effect that's just slightly choppy but pleasing to a lot of people. It's how they animated the Spider-verse movie.

  • The witch from Hansel and Gretel is the only person that's allowed to say "Home, sweet home."

    Jump

  • It does seem he lives at the factory. I think you've got a fair case here.

  • Brothers of Metal - The Other Son of Odin (2024, Power Metal)

    Jump

  • If anyone is curious (I had to go look this all up), this is about Vidar, the silent god and... well, the other son of Odin, obviously.

    He's one of the few Aesir prophesied to survive Ragnarok, slaying Fenrir by kicking his goddamn jaw out with a massive boot he crafted to protect from his fangs, and becoming king after the end.

    I didn't know about him an hour ago, and now he's my favorite.

    Brothers of Metal - The Other Son of Odin (2024, Power Metal)

  • Is it possible that none of this is real?

    Jump

  • God, I hope so. How bleak would it be if this were baseline reality?

    Donald Trump accuses Barack Obama of releasing classified information

    Jump

  • So what was the classified part? That there are not aliens in Area 51?

    Pretty sure I can confidently say that Bigfoot isn't imprisoned in the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier either. Shit, is that classified?

  • What’s your favorite sad song?

    Jump

  • The different renditions tell slightly different stories IMO. There's also a very fine bardcore version by Hildegard von Blingin' that changes it to the story of a regretful immortal by only altering maybe 20% of the lines. I like all three versions for different reasons.

  • Video games are losing the "attention war" to gambling, porn, and crypto, according to industry report

    Jump

  • You're right, of course. Indie devs with passion are still putting out some great stuff.

    My ire was much more for the AAA studios, which seem to have tossed out all the talent and vision that brought them to the top.

    I mean, I was Ride or Die with Square Enix for decades, when they were different companies. After 16, I think I'm just done with new Final Fantasy games altogether. Fuck you guys, imma go play 6, 8, and 9.

  • Not playing games, or not playing the current live service shovelware they keep pushing out?

    Lots of people are realizing there were more quality games released between 1985 and 2015 than you could ever play in a lifetime. We don't need new shit if it's just gonna suck.

  • I'm glad i grabbed this wii fit balance board from the trash a decade ago, wow!

    Jump

  • I've been doing both!

    Jump

  • I never tried that one, but I also had a recent late-to-the-party "gaming as exercise" discovery: Beat Saber! I never gelled with rhythm games before I got a VR headset, but I'm really digging it, and it totally gets me sweating after a while.

  • Guilty

    Jump

  • What else will hold the collection of cables from the last 25 years? I might need to connect a dot matrix printer again at some point, you never know.

  • Nandor posing

    Jump

  • You know how some cats look like Ron Perlman?

    This one looks just like this bartender I know, Jackie Daytona.

  • Which Animals are the worst, and why so?

    Jump

  • Probably Alan Price. His face is just so nyeeh, and I think he was the first one to leave the band.

  • If you were able to magically learn any language that nobody speaks in your region, what would it be?

    Jump

  • Well I probably can't say Klingon, too many goddamn nerds around here. How about Welsh? It'd be fun to go gargle at the locals in Cardiff about Doctor Who filming if I ever visit the UK.

    BIG (like Americans) IF TRUE

  • Seems a little sus to me. I mean, none of that cheese is even in liquid or spray form.

  • Coromon works really well on old TVs!

    Jump

  • OHHH, the Steam deck is reflecting the popcorn ceiling! I stared so long wondering what kind of weird textured opaque screen cover that was.

  • In a blind test, audiophiles couldn't tell the difference between audio signals sent through copper wire, a banana, or wet mud — 'The mud should sound perfectly awful, but it doesn't'

    Jump

  • It was gold plated mud though.

  • What's a piece of Media that is so underrated you must mention it?

    Jump

  • Netherbeast Incorporated is a weird but charming vampire office comedy from 2007, featuring Darrel Hammond, Dave Foley, and Steve from Blues Clues. And a small appearance by Robert Wagner as President James Garfield.

    It's kind of dumb, but I love it. I have never met another person in real life who's seen it.

  • What would you want done with your remains upon death?

    Jump

  • Launch my corpse at a dead planet with water or ice, see if my bacterial colonies eventually seed new life.

    I had emergency surgery and as a result it looks like I will be zonked out on oxys for the next week. Never had these, what are some good movies to watch in this condition?
