It's 2024, and at some point, it becomes a situation of gatekeeping accessibility when the game has been available for over decade, and you have a version of the game that supports this natively, and various versions across multiple consoles and handhelds.

[Retrograde Unhinged @RetrogradePGH]

It seems highly ableist and questionable that @Microsoft // @Mojang refuse to officially implement controller functionality in the Java version of @Minecraft

Inclusivity doesn't need to be for-profit.

Explanation⬇️

[Retrograde Unhinged @RetrogradePGH]

Just seems odd that the same company that developed a controller interface to help create access to gaming for folks with disabilities is forcing players to use a version of the game with no official mod support (but plenty of for-money market mods) and that seems questionable

After shamefully admitting that I have never played Chrono Trigger on Punching up this week, I’m going to right the wrong. This is up next after Rebirth.

When I say I have to go hang out with my friends, this is what I mean

[Retrograde Unhinged @RetrogradePGH]

If y'all see me fist-fighting people on the sidewalk while blasting Waikiki Down Beat— mind your business or I'll throw hands just like the Dragon of Doja Cat or whatever.

What is your favorite video game or tabletop memory? Any funny stories or heartwarming anecdotes? If you’re comfortable sharing, sound off below!

[Retrograde Unhinged @RetrogradePGH]

Wow.

Please.

Right into my veins.

[Sarah Spectre @SarahSpectre]

Hype level is through the roof, folks

[Retrograde Unhinged @RetrogradePGH]

The implication is that we're your favorite morons. Please do not laugh at any other store's employees. Because we'll know. And we'll be mean to you and that's just bad behavior do not. 3PM to 10PM today at Retrograde!

Time to announce my third album for this year: "Despite Everything." 8 power thrash renditions of Undertale and Deltarune songs to stay determined to. Including guitar solos from video game metal powerhouses RichaadEB and ToxicxEternity

See you on December 14th!

[Retrograde Unhinged @RetrogradePGH]

@KatyVScary Nice (for the moment in time)

[Retrograde Unhinged @RetrogradePGH]

The legends seem to stay legendary. And they say to never meet your heroes. My heroes seem rad as hell.

I don’t care what anyone says, I really like Brie Larson as Captain Marvel, so there 🤣

[Retrograde Unhinged @RetrogradePGH]

God. Dammit.

Time to be back on that Eobard Thawn hater-arc this week, I guess.

[Essenger @EssengerMusic]

it was me, barry! i hacked Bricklink to reset the market value of all bionicle sets to their original retail prices so everyone can experience The Dream again

[Retrograde Unhinged @RetrogradePGH]

@JamesSager The Last Samurai. Kind of a mid-tier movie, but one of the best soundtracks I can remember.

[Retrograde Unhinged @RetrogradePGH]

What film has the best soundtrack? GIFs only.

[Owen K.C. Stephens has a Patreon! @Owen_Stephens]

What film has the best soundtrack? GIFs only.

[Retrograde Unhinged @RetrogradePGH]

@ShopifySupport Yep. Tried a few different avenues, browsers, computers and internet connections (hot spots AND Xfinity- same problem on both)

[Retrograde Unhinged @RetrogradePGH]

You're out of line, but you're right.

"Water, fire, air, dirt, fuckin magic, how does that work" -Final Fantasy I plot synopsis by ICP

[Sarah Spectre @SarahSpectre]

I got to do a lot of fun interviews in 2023 but telling Danhausen he’d make a great Bat-Mite is probably where I peaked

[Retrograde Unhinged @RetrogradePGH]

@ShopifySupport I'm stalled on a blank page and the page just says "CS System.'

Cleared cache, restarted, updated Windows, and flushed DNS and did an internal ipconfig -release/-renew.

Any advice?
