@JGODYT This dude just set back conservation efforts by like 160 years.

Elements in Crimson Desert are a Game Changer

@redata_stash It's the same underlying model, but they are using different animation states on them. In scenes where more than one of them are on screen at once, you'll see that they use different eye shape states for each of them.

In Monster Hunter Stories 3, despite all the gaslighting, all of the Fur-tive Five use the same model. #MonsterHunter #MonsterHunterStories3

@AmericanaMama_ Why did they go to the sock aisle of an empty Shopko to take this photo?

Nah fam

@nypost There's another word for this.

Colorado school secretary admitted to sex with boy, 13, multiple times - and now she's on the run: cops trib.al/qwQPgJN

@JuiceMan_V I don't tolerate Gambit slander in the X-Men community and I don't tolerate it in the FF community.

Yeah, FF12 is a game for sophisticated adults, so I can see how you wouldn't like it.

@Sebbywebz "The drop-off in quality" and he shows a clip from the most sophisticated Final Fantasy ever made. How embarrassing.

The drop-off in quality after Final Fantasy X needs to be studied #FFXII

@nbduckman Isn't this the plot of Smile 2?

That classic Filthy Frank 4chan greentext is closer to being real than ever before

Dr Pepper needs to stop concocting other flavors. You already nailed it.

@SirJessums I would never blame them for giving us this.

@criticallyjared Blame Capcom for giving her such an amazing DLC costume

Kora that Velocidrome was at 1 health that was so unnecessary. Kora: “it’s about sending a message.” FELLAS GET YOURSELF A GIRL LIKE KORA

Playing some Resident Evil Requiem this morning. The game is great but I just wish it infused pixels with photoreal lighting and materials, bridging the gap between rendering and reality alas unplayable for now

@KEMO_HUNZ @Jackhon_hk @kevinkfyam Past Lives and Elemental were also nominated for multiple Academy Awards that year.

@Jackhon_hk @kevinkfyam Hayao Miyazaki won it in 2024, and he did it TWICE!

This is an example of Asians living in the West forgetting about Asians in Asia - both Parasite and Squid Game won lots of mainline awards in the US, but I guess because they are actual Koreans and not Korean Americans, they don’t count in the eyes of some.

@Hindavyieo This is the worst thing I have ever seen in my entire life and I will have nightmares about this for weeks.

So relaxing and satisfying 😌

@HUN2R On one hand, you can understand the sentiment here. The problem in the other is that gamers usually aren't doing what he's describing. It's upsetting as a consumer to watch teams squander talent on obvious failures, and it's worse when those teams choose to ignore good advice.

Jeff Kaplan's advice to people who complain about video games they've never played "Shut the f*ck up"

@Suffragent_ Society cannot survive toxic empathy.

WOW‼️"I feels sad for Mandelson because his life has fallen apart since his friendship with Epstein was revealed," says Cherie Blair. "We need to remember that he's a human being with feelings." Absolutely astonishing.

@DaddyWarpig Am I the only person on earth that kind of liked Eternals?

The lady who made The Eternals made the pilot and HULU said “no, that sucks too much even for us.” It must have been epic.

@de3dsoul Capcom releases like five AAA games every year. Rockstar hasn't released a new game in 8 years.

@aakashgupta Why would I care about saving OpenAI money anyway?

Sam Altman said people saying “please” and “thank you” to ChatGPT costs OpenAI tens of millions of dollars a year in compute. 67% of Americans do it anyway. Run the math on why. A 2024 Waseda University study tested LLM responses across politeness levels in English, Chinese, and Japanese. Impolite prompts produced measurably worse outputs: more bias, more errors, more refusals. Moderate politeness consistently beat both extremes. The mechanism makes sense once you see it. Polite prompts pattern-match to higher-quality training data. When you write “Could you help me structure this analysis?”, the model pulls from professional, well-reasoned text. When you write “give me the answer,” it pulls from Reddit. Google DeepMind’s Murray Shanahan explained it simply: the model is role-playing a smart intern. Treat the intern like a colleague, you get colleague-quality work. Bark orders, you get minimum-viable compliance. Now look at the cost side. OpenAI handles over a billion queries daily. Each GPT-4 query uses roughly 2.9 watt-hours, ten times a Google search. But OpenAI just raised $40 billion at a $300 billion valuation. Tens of millions in politeness tokens is a rounding error on a rounding error. 67% of users do it anyway, and 55% of them say it’s because it’s “the right thing to do.” They’re maintaining a behavioral habit that governs every other interaction in their life. The parent who teaches their kid to say please to Alexa isn’t doing it for Alexa. They’re doing it because the alternative is raising someone who learns that being rude gets faster results. Telling 900 million people to stop saying thank you so OpenAI can save 0.01% of operating costs is the most engineer-brained optimization take on the internet. You’re training yourself to treat every interaction as a transaction. And that habit doesn’t stay in the chat window.

@VGC_News I admire that he used the example of Japanese having an array of personal pronouns to explain how English is simple, considering it's the only instance where English is more simple than Japanese.

Dragon Quest creator Yuji Horii says English translations of Japanese games lose "flavour" because it's a more "simple language". The intricacies of Japanese dialogue are lost when translating to English, Horii says. vgc.news/news/dragon-qu…

@ToonHive It's kind of embarrassing how much of their own ass the film industry shows whenever they hold ceremonies for themselves and can't even be bothered to do the bare minimum of just watching the movies.

Some Oscar voters have reportedly chosen to skip voting in the Best Animated Feature category this year, according to anonymous voters. “When my kids were little I used to be much more up to speed on this category, but now I’m not, so I’m sitting it out.”
