@BudoNick Unless Japanese law has changed in recent years, you CANNOT get a working visa unless you have a college degree

I think there are a lot of people, and this applies to me too, who are too stubborn to ever admit they're wrong. They'll go to lengths to "prove their point". This is why I don't engage online. Go grab a drink and discuss with buddies, not randos.

Echoes of Mystralia--the booth I helped with at TGS--is doing a public playtest! If you like roguelites, I highly recommend giving it a go!

Worked on a game with an older lady that used 90’s slang to date herself. So what’s the problem with using modern slang in game dialogue again?

@AvengerMags @JoinMeInReality I guess I don’t mind the use of “rizz” but I do remember a version of Zelda that used the doge meme and the UK version got rid of it

@DougDinsdale I’m looking to build a budget gaming rig but the specs listed looks like it could be cheaper if he just bought a premade laptop. Unless the project is to build the pc in which case I’m all for it
