Despite my general distaste for how backwards looking culture is at the moment, if Sony put out a 4K 60 remaster of Motorstorm Pacific Rift I'd actually buy a PS5 (assuming they don't just port it to PC a year later that is)

incoming Megalopolis vs Wild Robot discourse will be he dumbest culture war. "people who think liking non YA and under stuff and think loving Paddington constitutes a personality" vs "people who call any movie where a frail white woman smokes a cig on screen 'locked the fuck in'"

The end state of poptimism is elevating people who talk like this unironically to "esteemed thought leader" thinkpiece/op-ed writers

@MaxKriegerVG Disclaimer: this whole mini thread is admittedly armchair analysis on my part. If I'm completely full of shit on this, I genuinely want to hear why I'm wrong or what I'm missing

[phatscout.bsky.social @phatscout]

@MaxKriegerVG but at the end of the day I can't help but feel like that initial step towards focusing on "covering the conversation" was small but damaging mvmnt towards the narrowing of coverage that opened the door for SEO BS to worm its way into every facet of games press apparatus
