Made this account to separate Church and State. The Church being my mysterious, monolithic game studio @somewhatsoft, and the State being my state of constant distress and confusion.

We are heartbroken to learn that David Lynch has passed away at 78.

Lynch's family writes on Facebook, "It is with deep regret that we, his family, announce the passing of the man and the artist, David Lynch. There’s a big hole in the world now that he’s no longer with us."

I dreamt that I met Kojima in a small party in Montreal. He came up to me and licked the ice cream I had in a bowl.

Later, he offered his hand to help me up on my feet but put no strength in his arm, so I had to stand back up whilr weakly holding hands with him.

Quite rude.

Currently considering buying a hunting simulator game such as Way Of The Hunter just to get my moody, lonely walking sim fix.

Gaming hot take : I do not understand the love and hype for Arkane’s Prey. It felt like mostly rehashed stuff. Competently made, but everything had an air of deja vu to it.

[William Somewhat @SomewhatWilliam]

@BustedKeyboards It absolutely does.

Merry Xmas to all.

At my parents’, one of my uncle’s paintings next to the festive tree. Dread runs in the family.

(I know nobody cares about my posts on X-Files, which I am only catching up on now in 2023, but Scully’s cancer subplot is making me uncomfortable for all sorts of reasons).

Oh no! They just said Mulder is DEAD!

Also, as a side note, I’m weirdly uncomfortable with the inclusion of ‘the ring girl’ as a cliché that needs to stop, as it’s more of an asian culture thing and not our role to criticize.

[William Somewhat @SomewhatWilliam]

I personally would add ‘Making me look through every drawer of every piece of furniture’. Does ANYBODY honestly feel like systematically rummaging through evert drawer in a house is gripping gameplay?

Another suuuper niche tweet. Yay me and my social media savvy

Watching a Game Center CX episode without translation, because at this point the format is just so obvious that I don’t need to know japanese to understand.

This is not a slight, btw, I’m working with the same 8 pngs as you do.

[William Somewhat @SomewhatWilliam]

There are only, like, 8 royalty-free blood splash png images on the entire internet.

When you’re a horror dev, you learn to recognize them quickly in other games / trailers.

Hey, errr, that’s stupid.

[William Somewhat @SomewhatWilliam]

@Beetlenaut Seriously. Haven’t drunk-shopped in a while, but pretty sure that what’s available is pretty pricey. 😭

New unnecessary need identified : I want to own an original Akira movie painted background cell.

[William Somewhat @SomewhatWilliam]

I cannot help it, this fills me with (un)life. 💜

Rise, Kindred, and join us in September for a big announcement!

[William Somewhat @SomewhatWilliam]

You know when Youtube autoplays some random video and it’s a 120 minutes vid about something like “Top 10 Brazilian Videogame Consoles You Never Heard Of” and when you watch it, it totally reads and sounds emotionless like it was made by an AI?

So, err, what’s up with those?

[William Somewhat @SomewhatWilliam]

AI Somnium Files : nirvanA Initiative contains ‘mysterious viral ARG videos’ and it feels like the devs truly got their finger on a certain irl pulse with those. It looks…authentic.
