How do you feel knowing you've created the single funniest piece of Half-Life media ever

valve is so good at cutscenes even the elevator rides are part of the worldbuilding

Why would you pay for any Disney movie lol
Just pirate that if you care so much for it, they don't need your money (nor deserve it)

LOL That ain't me bro
I left Twitter years ago because I'd rather not support an actual white supremacist
But go off I guess

I am being VERY normal about her.

DM me if you look like this btw

Don't you mean Hexen?

I love how in the first game, he gets captured before the game's even started, and in every other title, he's so completely inept at being a spy that it's simply baffling how he even got the job.
He can't even speak German, while undercover in GERMANY!

I feel like I just did that in a single post and not almost 2 hours

baboon thing

Before anyone chimes in with examples they think refute my argument: Over a hundred years ago, the "objectively good" design for a bike was this, because it made it easier to ride over rough cobblestone paths.

If it was still "objectively good", you'd see these everywhere.

I'm taking the word "objectively" away from you. Sorry.

I'm only giving it back once you learn that any design, especially in art, is highly subjective and dependent on context, and that said context changes over time and is not universal.

You just want to sell your own opinion as the "true" one.

Genuinely upset "vibe coding" means what it does. When I first heard it, I was fully on board, as I thought it meant "code based on vibes", not "using AI".

That's what I do! I code stuff based on whatever feels right! I was so happy to have found a word to describe that!

AI ruins everything :(

You.
You can see my vision.

Alt history is always stuff like "what if the pee babies won WW2" or "what if we never discovered electricity and everything was steam"

But what I wanna see is alt history that asks "what if Sega had won the console wars and Nintendo was washed up" or "what if there had been a fourth CD-i Zelda"

Even better tip: Start making food before you're hungry so you don't turn hangry halfway through.

Title: "Unprepared for a Regrettable Luncheon! (With apologies to Kelly)" In the visual style of famed The Onion cartoonist Stan Kelly, Superintendent Chalmers is having lunch with Principal Skinner, who is menacingly placing a tray of hamburgers and fries upon the table, which greatly upsets Chalmers. Beneath one of the hamburgers is a wrapper bearing the text "Obviously grilled fast food". Chalmers [labelled as "Disappointed guests"]: "B-but... I thought we were having steamed CLAMS!!" Skinner [labelled as "Isometric exercising* odd fellows" - the asterisk refers to a footnote reading "Latest fad"]: "Oh, no, I made STEAMED HAMS™®! ©1996 Skinner family All rights reserved" From within the clouds of smoke billowing from Skinner's kitchen (wherein an American flag can be seen burning) three heavenly beings gaze upon the scene disapprovingly: A pig labelled "Actual hams", Krusty the clown, labelled "Hard-working patent-holders", and a teenaged fry-cook labelled "Ignored sandwich artists". Lady Liberty peeks in the door and sheds a sad tear at this woeful scene. Kelly's obligatory artist cameo has him disgruntledly commenting "Seymour-a bore-e-malice."

Steamed Hams but it's a Kelly comic

(Yup that's right I still make "Steamed Hams but..." memes)

I've been having the Hotline on my mind lately

Based!

Oh no :D That's so sad! Maybe he was intimidated by your sheer aura.

Starting to read these types of titles in the same tone as "Can you pick up some milk while you're at the store?"

Sven Nordqvist my beloved <3 Immediately recognized his style

Honestly I always imagined him tackling the guy to the floor and caving his skull in until he's forcefully removed by someone else

I need to clear up a gross misconception and mischaracterization of Doomguy. He did NOT punch his superior officer because he ordered his soldiers to shoot civilians.
It clearly states he ASSAULTED him, landing him in a body cast. That's much more than a mere punch. Give Doomguy more credit, please.

Like, you can have your headcanons, but what the devs say is also just a headcanon. Maybe it's one everyone believes in, but that doesn't automatically invalidate everyone else's interpretations. Especially if it's such a convoluted and disjointed series like Zelda, Doom, Wolfenstein or Contra.

I think that unless it's directly mentioned in the games, whatever the devs say doesn't count. And even then, paving over past games they weren't even involved with isn't brilliant either. I feel like everyone puts too much of an emphasis on canon in the first place. Just interpret it as you will.

I'm not saying this as a meme, I genuinely adore these games, and they have as much cultural impact as other entries in the series (if not more).
One day, I'll write an entire essay on why Faces of Evil and Wand of Gamelon are so great.

Haven't watched the cartoon though, but it still has merit.

I don't care nearly enough about Contra to give a good answer, but I feel like just making games non-canon is weak. I mean, the entire idea of a "mainline series" is nonsensical to me. There can be multiple timelines that co-exist with each other.
So I'd say yes. They're all valid in their own ways.
