these seem like good potatoes, I gotta say
I appreciate the sentiment! I just kind of got tired of the constant air of doomerism and the sense that every disagreement or insufficiently enthusiastic agreement had a way of turning into a fighty argument. I leave the starboard in Marie’s powerful hands
getting the word JUICY tattooed across my butt cheeks to make sure everyone still knows even when I don’t have my pants on
I had to
man, I’m trying to imagine how you’d even begin to approach this set phrase in Japanese, which doesn’t really even have a noun for “thirst” per se. It’s phrased so perfectly in a way that takes advantage of its own language, making localization potentially a nightmare
I could write 10,000 words about Caves of Qud (and maybe one day I will) but I want to point out one thing about the water ritual, "your thirst is mine, my water is yours." I love that it STARTS with the empathy of acknowledging the other's need before moving on to the gift of one's own water.
It’s extremely good and fine that Guilty Gear 2 was like the fifth Guilty Gear game
Super Robot Wars 30 is not the 30th game in the series. That's silly. It's the game made to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the series.
It's the 48th game in the series.
it’s true: I can’t think of many things it was better than
waiting for Mighty No. 9 to come out
it is frankly staggering just how often you run into と言われる ("it is said") as weasel words in Japanese writing of all sorts
I love “cozy games” on an individual level but “cozy” used to include replaying resident evil 2 for the 5th time
now as a genre it’s starting to feel like it is locking people into aesthetic tradwife boot camp

The Switch release of Qud has gotten a number of my friends who I told "you have to play this game, you'd love it" actually playing it, making it maybe the most successful Sicko Game on Switch of all time thus far
Caves of qud has me looking at the world differently. Like what if you were an alien or something and landed here, and had no notion of cars or buildings or electric lights? How would you describe them?
a drag group whose personas are that they’re all caricatures of really basic cishet people, called Dire Straights
We need some sort of IgNobel prize for code, like the most impressive code written to do the silliest thing, or the silliest code written to do the most impressive thing.
Potentially related, someone wrote a x86 CPU emulator in pure CSS.

I was wondering why these Caves of Qud dragonflies that are usually chill were all up in my ass and attacking me so suddenly. Turns out I was wearing the antennae of their fallen brethren on my head like a dickhead. I can see how that could come off as a little insensitive. That's my bad
It’s frankly a miracle, right? The use of ZL/L2/LT as a sort of “alt” modifier feels complicated at first but becomes second nature so quickly, since the verb mappings are so cleverly handled
I don't know man, Strip Law has the hyper-specificity and whimsy of Golden Age Simpson delivered in a package as dense in jokes and misdirects as Golden Age Adult Swim; it's got the profane pop-culture literacy of Archer AND the screwball joy of Animaniacs; you should champion this fucking show

This is what gaming is all about
ha ha ha why is VF5 REVO so blurry on Switch 2, what the heck
caves of qud is great because half of the things you hear about the game sound like a shitpost, but it's 100% real and makes complete sense in context
Heartwarmed and flattered by a new crop of folks getting into Caves of Qud on Switch. If you're having trouble with how deranged it is at the start, please stick with it: it gets much worse
I am, by no means, a Qud expert. Love the game to death and have maybe 40 failed runs- never beaten the game once.
This is, by far, the funniest single screenshot I have ever seen of this game. Ever.
DEAR SPLATOON FOLLOWERS. you all have NINTENDO SWITCH OR NINTENDO SWITCH 2 SYSTEMS. i know of another VIDEO GAME AVAILABLE ON THE SWITCH in which you can SHOOT GOO OF SOME SORT and COMPLETE TASKS FOR BEARS. it is called CAVES OF QUD
It’s so cool to see how many of the commenters have obviously never seen Jurassic Park
