I will not mince words: Segagaga is a deeply personal, human game about passionate developers making the best of a bad situation. This is not the first patch to employ MTPE as a shortcut, but it is particularly tone deaf to deploy in this climate for a game about the people who made Sega what it is.
A brand-new look at CyberConnect2's Cecile in Weekly Famitsu No. 1936. It was part of the "Trilogy of Vengeance" titles that were unveiled in 2018. The first Fuga was part of that, along with another title called Tokyo Ogre Gate.

One of Vanillaware's co-founders (Takehiro Shiga) drew this cool illustration depicting the structure of Chunsoft's most famous sound novels. This was posted around the time 13 Sentinels was entering production, so the devs may have been studying these sound novels while conceptualizing the game.
time to spec into a whole new set of fetishes

Making up a guy who only knows radiohead from ergo proxy
As screenwriter of the Labubu movie I want to clear up some misconceptions. Yes, technically they do eat human flesh, but only necrotic tissue around wounds. Doctors use them to clean up injuries and promote positive health outcomes. Labubus are humanity’s allies, except for evil Labubus of course
I’m so sorry to hear, my deepest condolences.
And he said, "If everyone likes it, it means it's mainstream. It means it's conventional. It means it's already pre-digested for people to like it. And I don't want that. I want people to end up liking things they didn't like when they first encountered it, because that's where you really end up loving something."
Keep thinking about this term "pre-digested" that Kojima used to describe art that's instantly gratifying. And how it's better when people grow to love something instead.
I've gravitated, as player and designer, toward the latter, but that term "pre-digested" is new and feels very strong.
Oh my god.... I did... I never remembered the name of it.

a dialect for two
Discussion #0: Introductions (NOTE: This 'Discussion' session is numbered #0 as it is not connected to any of the later 'Experiment' or 'Practice' sessions.) Two girls are sitting on a king-sized bed. One is a brunette with pale skin, the other white-haired with darker skin. "Hello!" "Hello." "We made these tapes for our friends, but I don't doubt that they may someday end up in the hands of folks who don't know us, which is fine." "So long as they are also robots, of course. Like our friends are."
Tetra. Tetra has always been Tetra. She saw no reason to change it. Four, a quaternion, a denotion of something real, like she feels she has always been. Like a swarm of colourful fish, where each unit is free and unique, but still they choose to cooperate and swim together.
"Should we stay at the distance where we know each other best?"

Really great study on the rather troubling online discourse around Japanese language learning in certain portions of the web, focused on "techno-solutionism", consumption, and native bias just got published by a good buddy of mine. Open access too! Check it out @ academic.oup.com/applij/advan...

gamesoftrobo.ghost.io/the-english-... "...a book of “hey, ever notice this?” observations for intermediate+ players, written by a player with an incredible depth of observational skill. Someone who notices everything. If you think you're past the beginner level at riichi, this is a must-read book."
a post showing a bowl of candy with a single potato in the center with the text: Tonight kids chose potato more than 25 times, each time triumphantly proclaiming to friends and family, "I GOT A POTATO!" One kid shouted, "A potato, just like last year!" and another group said, "Oh, youre the potato house? You're legends!" This has become an unexpected and joyful tradition. Kids are given the free choice and over and over again they choose Potato. My friends, every day you are given a choice. I encourage you: choose potato
thinking about potato house this halloween
