We lost our family dog Sadie this week, the bear, the tank, the best animal that has ever existed. She spent 15 years (!) as the most spoiled animal on this planet. What a run, what a legend. 🥰 Instead of all of us being sad, fill the replies with your beloved creatures 💖

Wild Hearts grabbed me pretty quickly with the trial on Game Pass. Six hours of adventuring and I’m really eager to dig into all these combat systems.

I don't really know how to explain it, but Hi-Fi Rush, Forspoken, and Wanted:Dead all have the same vibe to me as awesome next-generation PS2 games, and I cannot be more enthusiastic about this renaissance of purified, focused action RPGs with weird, fun features.

I'm watching a friend stream Wanted: Dead, and this game is bonkers and wonderful in every way. A ramen-eating rhythm game is immediately followed by a cop responding to the question, "I heard you have a gun?" with "WHO TOLD YOU THAT?" Then you go hang out with a cat. GOTY

My new favorite thing - Bing's new ChatGPT bot argues with a user, gaslights them about the current year being 2022, says their phone might have a virus, and says "You have not been a good user" Why? Because the person asked where Avatar 2 is showing nearby

this is so heartwarming for the obvious reasons, sure, but the subtext of this being "wholesome reason to boo the visiting team and its supporters" is nuclear-grade chirping and you have to absolutely gotta respect the Wings arena producer for this whole bit

Hey friends, I know AI technology is exciting, but if you see my voice or any of the characters that I voice offered on any of those sites, please know that I have not given my permission, and never will. This is highly unethical. We all appreciate your support. Thank you.

Also, there are things I used to believe that I held onto out of habit, and they just weren't true anymore -- I reflexively thought "I don't like JRPGs that much" while the genre changed me for 10 straight years.

For 20+ years, I did not care for turn-based games, found "cards" to be an instant turn-off in almost any genre, and thought "slow-paced" equaled "boring." A turn-based slow-burn with some cards sounds so dreamy to me now. Ideal, even.

The older I get, the more I try to consciously revisit media that didn't resonate with me at the time, like Prime. It pays off almost every time. "I didn't like that" doesn't mean anything when it was 20 years ago and I was a literal different person. Taste changes with you!

This restored some hope in humanity this week for me. It’s really reassuring that this many people will come together to help
