A friend recently was reflecting that they felt art direction in games has gotten generally worse. I think it's a good use of our time & energy to celebrate the fact that while there are a lot of whiffs in the world today, the recent era has also seen some of the greatest of all time

The language a work is written in defines the work. Books are not just vehicles for plot. If you take, say, The Sound and the Fury and rewrite it with the same basic plot but in more “accessible” language, that’s a completely, fundamentally different book, not “the same book but accessible.”

The supposed "AI will shop for you" future is possibly one of the AI dreams that makes the least sense to me. Like, are most of you not *extremely* particular about the things you buy? I'm never going to just say "Hey chat, buy me shoes." I need to be very involved in deciding what goes on my feet.
If nothing else, I know that Square has a pretty good track record of Final Fantasy games with cover art featuring a hot girl atop something that looks like a monster. So Resonance has a good chance of being good.

Gonna give this solo journaling RPG thing a try, I think. @zigorously.bsky.social @moreblueberries.bsky.social
This is nonsensical. Libraries buy huge numbers of books you wouldn't otherwise sell. They're a massive discoverability vector for authors. The reasons behind the declining author earnings are not hard to guess. People read less, have less $ to spend, +media is being consolidated by megacorporations

I don't really get game codes from PR these days. There are at least 15 games here, conservatively, that I want to play. RIP my wallet and my free time.

James Joyce is gonna read this and come back from the dead so he can publish Finnegan's Wake 2 out of sheer spite.

This will end real fine.
You all-- I never thought I'd see the day, but library peeps, strap in for a fight. The Author's Guild is going after us as the reason why authors are making less money. I don't think they understand who they are dealing with: www.publishersweekly.com/pw/by-topic/...

This is an updated list of games (new titles, remasters, remakes, and big ports) launching from late August to November, aka GTA 6 month. It's hard to look at.
