Spot on. If video games are art, game devs are artists. Those who truly love games understand this. You wouldn’t tell Picasso how to paint, Kendrick how to write, or Jordan Peele how to direct/cast. Video Games are just as much, an outlet of the human spirit.
It has become more obvious that their entire movement is formed from a base of insecurity and lack of skill to enjoy a story that doesn't pander to them.
It's not about good games or dialogue or anything.
They simply think all games need to pander to them.
Hayao Miyazaki once said that love is two people inspiring each other to live. And living is more than simply existing, it’s noticing the beauty in ordinary moments, finding wonder in the everyday, and being fully present in your life. To love someone is to awaken that sense of awe in them, to make the simple act of being alive feel meaningful. I can’t think of a better way to describe it.

Rationally I should wait to the August update of Dragon Dogma 2 that is improving the performance, greatly buffs a lot of vocations and gives you 6 active skills...
but also me:
Hard truth…
I can speak freely because I’m 65 years old and my pocketful of fucks is seriously depleted.
Working as a paralegal at various studios in LA for thirty years…I had the opportunity to observe studio executives closely.
They’re generally a slippery and clueless bunch who shouldn’t be allowed near anything remotely creative…but the new regime at Paramount is straight up evil.
I assure you.
These soulless bastards have nothing but contempt for a show about grace and redemption and the struggle against fascism.
ATLA is a mystery to them.
They. Do. Not. Value. The. Franchise.
THE WORST THING YOU CAN DO IS LET THIS WORLD STEAL YOUR WHIMSY. PROTECT YOUR WHIMSY AT ALL COST. DON’T LET THESE JOYLESS MOTHERFUCKERS STEAL YOUR MAGIC.
Michael B. Jordan’s advice for anyone feeling stuck in life
“When you’re feeling the most trapped and down and nothing can go right, those are the moments that define you. People quit right before they get what they’ve always wanted”
“Having the name Michael Jordan, knowing there was another Michael Jordan who was the best ever got me teased and picked on. For a moment, it made me not want to play sports but then I was like nah, I’m going to compete. It gave me a healthy chip”
“For the people who are listening who feel like they can’t change their circumstances, just hold on. Just endure. Look at things differently. Challenge yourself to see the glass half full”
“Find something that resonates with you, find your intuition within that thing and be obsessed about it”
