I'd rather be every other weekend dad than a yellowing Polaroid.

Here's the last recap. Let's all try to be just a little better, because the world ain't going to be a little better to us. Let's try to be a little better to each other. Let's begin anew POE currency trade .

ORIGINAL CONTENT


What Twitch Plays Pokemon and True Detective teach us about modern storytelling – Steven Hansen

I like to write this sort of thing and, if you humungous liars are to be believed, voi gente like to read this sort of thing. In a perfect world, it's all I'd be writing. So give it a read. I talk about authorship, crowd canons (less cool than crowd cannons), how memes are bad, a really good TV show, a really weird technology, the endless white noise surrounding contemporary art, and more. Read it. I'll count it as your good deed for the day, just this once. 

I was into Twitch Plays Pokemon (Red) for its novelty, for the creativity is spawned: songs, comics, and other bits of art. But its crowd-sourced canon is infinite monkeys on infinite keyboards.

The criteria for a final verdict will be stringent, and involve exploring a massive amount of content, such as endgame dungeons, as well as experiencing the game up to the maximum level cap. If we don't reach that mark we'll let you know the exact details.


Symphony of the Night came together by ignoring past Castlevania games – Steven Hansen

We're seeing less of these types of games [Metroidvania] and many fans are waiting for next one. Now that I've gone indie, I'm able to create things as I wish, he said. As opposed to what, the company wishes.
