@marcel_aromeh If I recall correctly they werent trying to move it right? They had the sails hitched to a rotor so they could power the lab so the vaccine samples could stay cold

You would need 500mph wind with those things to move that ship. 🤣.

@nocontextmemes Generational fucking fumble by blue

@NinjaCaptioner @monoblackzombie @DoubleFine Mr Ninja Captioner I dont even know if your account is still active but brother we made it

@jade_marbles @monoblackzombie @mogged68 @DoubleFine Closest you'll be able to get is playing Ninja Gaiden 2 on Xbox One or Series. The framerate is nice and stable on those consoles.

If you beat Psychonauts 2 with the invincibility toggle on, you still beat P2.

@PirateSoftware Ima be honest I understand where you're coming from, but its patently false to claim devs could not release functionality to users to host p2p servers for the community. The initiative's goal is to allow players to keep playing their game, not have years worth of memories deleted

Been reading through all of the posts against me over my stance on the Stop Killing Games initiative. Tons of people calling me a liar or that I misrepresented the initiative. Also lots of content creators dogpiling on this to get their pound of flesh. Lets dig into what I actually did and said. I put out two videos on August 6th 2024 and August 7th 2024. These videos are linked at the bottom of this post. Many people have not watched them and are just calling me a liar or attacking my character. Give the videos a watch, read the initiative itself, make a conclusion that you aren't copy pasting from social media. Monetization on these videos is disabled so no this is not some ploy to increase revenue. I just care about this subject and have rightful concerns as a person working in this space. In the first video. I go through what an initiative is, how it's not law, and how it's a starting point for this entire process. This helps people understand that this is to start the conversation for change and can adapt later. I then go through the initiative and some of it's goals from the official page for it. I then talk about the repercussions of them should they be implemented. As written all games need to be left in a "Functional Playable State". Next I bring up The Crew and walk through the business around it, the sequels, and the size of the player-base at time of sunset. I did this because it was called out by this initiative as an example of publishers destroying a game. I also harshly critique Ross Scotts wording in his videos because they disparage the lawmaking process and lawmakers which doesn't benefit players or this movement in any way. In the second video. I talk about potential scenarios where a studio could be abused if the initiative was implemented as written. It adds new paths for abuse and that needs to be discussed to help hone this initiative into something that would do good without doing harm. I then explain that very few people in the game development space can actually discuss this from the other side due to fear of losing their jobs. A studio is much safer in silent dissent then they are discussing the drawbacks of your ideals. The recent attacks on our games is obvious evidence of this. To recap. My main issue with this initiative is that it is broad in it's approach to change the industry and the exact language of the initiative, not the FAQ, requests that all games stay in a "Functional Playable State". This is not feasible for all games at a technical level and could potentially restrict developers from making online-only games like MMOs, MOBAs, and User Generated Content games in the future. That list is not exhaustive and it doesn't matter if you do or don't like those kinds of games. Effectively this has the potential to restrict future developers from making kick-ass experiences because it locks a weight on their designs. Even though this is an initiative that can change in the future this goal is core to the mission and deeply disruptive so it needs to be called out. To clear up some disinformation about my character. I left AAA in 2016 because I fucking hate how the industry is now and prefer indie entirely. I don't like Blizzard or I would have stayed working there. That's why I quit. That's the entire point. Fuck AAA and what many studios have turned games into. Outside of that no I am not financially supported by live service games. I make a single player RPG and am the Director of Strategy for offbrand games. In that position I am paid MINIMUM WAGE by my own decision because I care about games succeeding not about profiting off of them. To further this the games we're publishing are all playable offline anyway because their gameplay loops are not only based on inter-player interaction. Not all games are like this and not all games can be like this. No, I have not been running away from discourse on this I talked about it for around 8 hours on stream yesterday. I never took my videos down and I have not discussed the initiative in the 10 months it's been since I released those videos. My internet also died mid-broadcast so I had to go live again 30 minutes later. Thanks ISP. For those that will scream HE'S DOUBLING DOWN. Yes I damn well am. I give a shit about this initiative and what it means for games, developers, and players in the future. To finish out. Just because I don't support this doesn't mean you should blindly follow me in that just because I said pretty words on the internet. You also shouldn't blindly bash me because some other creator said to. Watch the videos I put out, read the initiative, decide for yourself. Apply critical thinking and don't outsource it to others. As always. Stay Frosty. First Video: youtube.com/watch?v=ioqSvL… Second Video: youtube.com/watch?v=x3jMKe… Minimum Wage Proof: x.com/PirateSoftware…

@ChappellRoan you're one of the boys, wanna join the fellas fantasy league?

@splezxn @PanderShirts The key is always half age + 7 (besides like if theyre a minor obviously.). This equation for 28 = 21. 28/22 age gap is literally nothing

@PanderShirts It’s not pedophilla obviously but it’s a little weird

a 28 year old thinking a 22 year old is hot is not pedophilia for the love of god

@Duderichy They dont?

crazy how women don’t know you can choose which testicle to ejaculate from

@SethRowland2 @TheNCSmaster The only quality response in this thread

@TheNCSmaster Two things: 1. CFB 25 is goated 2. Elden ring still in the top 10 2 years after its initial release is crazy.

@MachiToons Basically realized that arguing about shit all the time doesnt help anything so instead I started reading opinions I didnt like. Also having friends doing the same thing helped. Eventually learned the world is far more grey than it is black and white

@jacksfilms Me

In 2025, I’d like to host a show where I interview a special guest, but… 1. Neither of us know the questions beforehand 2. The questions get progressively worse Who should be our first guest?

@JayExci Cyberpunk 2077. Game is genuinely fantastic in 2.0 state. If you haven’t played it since launch I implore you to give it another chance

Games like cyberpunk 2077 but that are good?

@TafferKing451 Take your time boss, people who are being assholes can and should be ignored

I will be closing my Twitter DMs for now. I get that Gloomwood is taking a while, but I don’t quite appreciate how dickish some of the messages have been. The team and I continue to work on the game and make it the best thing we can.

@JayExci Dont want to unfollow cause I love your other tweets but all twitter pushes to my feed is vegan posting

"people in the meat industry don't murder animals for fun" is fascinating because they entirely do, there's just a few middle men. Let's not pretend a McDonald's burger is something you eat for your health. It's for your enjoyment. The animal was killed for your enjoyment.

@Zer0_305 @funkshitpost @ShitpostRock 143.3

@JakeViales @MWeaver1986 @NoJesuitTricks @louissavall4 ngl the first one wasnt funny but the double down was

@MWeaver1986 @NoJesuitTricks @louissavall4 I would but your mom doesn't want me taking any risks with these "magic fingers"

@SpecShadow @VoicesByZane Xenoblade does such a good job at conveying scale. One of the best to ever do it

@VoicesByZane Xenoblade series? Two titans stopped fighting midcombat and life started on them

@JUSTcatmeme Dog just let people have fun. Aint hurting anyone and they get to have a community. Who fucking cares

This is all your fault Disney+

IM GOING TO ADMIT SOMETHING THAT I AM NO LONGER AFRAID OF HIDING: I PLAY MINECRAFT WITH KEEP INVENTORY ON BECAUSE ITS WAY MORE FUN THAT WAY. EXPLORING SHOULD BE A BEAUTIFUL EXPERIENCE NOT A STRESSFUL ENDEAVOR PLUS I CAN GOD OF WAR JUMP INTO LAVA TO GO HOME

@SkepticClaus @averagejobet @0xSkeleton @DramaAlert Dog genuinely what the fuck are you talking about?? I buy like all my meat and vegetables from TJ. Its cheaper and higher quality

Dad stressed out over how much it costs to feed his 6 kids. 💰

@dannstacks @wyrmforge This was gonna be my pick. Can’t get over how cute the pre transformation beasts were

@wyrmforge I know its bottom of the bin early 360 fare but. Man this game was just brain dead fun, and i wish more games comitted to the shapeshifting bit as hard as it did.

everyone needs to have at least one game that they know in their heart is mid but that they have weirdly strong feelings about. what is that game (or games) for you guys i’m so curious
