does anyone else feel like talking verbally is a quicktime event and you’re constantly missing the button cues
Unpopular opinion: All games should have the option to enable pausing.
And to save almost everywhere.
Yes even in soulslike games.
I am an adult who has a full time job and responsibilities. I get to play maybe an hour a week. I do not want to lose that hour of progress because devs decided 'pause' was not allowed in their game and I had sudden unexpected things come up that meant I had to quit the game without saving/leave it playing and hope enemies wouldn't respawn.
Also it would massively increase accessability. I have fully working non-injured hands and they still need a break after a tough boss fight. I can't imagine how frustrating it must be for people with joint pain, arthritis, etc, etc.
electric stoves aren’t real btw they’re placebo stoves. your food cooks because of the placebo effect
yeah no its just a bunch of LEDs that turn red, it only boils water because you expect the water to boil

Gerald Anderson Lawson (December 1, 1940 – April 9, 2011) was an American electronic engineer. He is known for his work in designing the Fairchild Channel F video game console as well as leading the team that pioneered the commercial video game cartridge. He was thus dubbed the "father of the videogame cartridge" according to Black Enterprise magazine in 1982. He eventually left Fairchild and founded the game company Video-Soft
he's the reason nintendo got as far as they have.

Anonymous asked:
Tell me about you're first crush.
It was Cookie from Animal Crossing for gamecube. I used to bring her flowers and fossils and talk to her over and over until she told me to go away. Then one day she said she didn’t want to lose me and a heart emoticon floated above her head and I knew it was real. So I sent her a love letter. Then, a few weeks later, I had a friend over and we traveled to each others towns. A few days later, I opened my mailbox and saw a letter from Cookie. She told me that she had moved. She moved to my friends town. I was heart broken and planted flowers where her house once stood. Then, the next week at school, I walk into my class and everyone started laughing at me. Cookie had showed my friend the letter I wrote to her. She showed him the letter. I had never felt more betrayed in my entire life. I couldn’t believe that she did that to me, so when I got home I ripped up all the flowers I planted in her memory and vowed to never love again.
i see past your fake smile, you coldhearted bitch

Only 13 percent of video games are readily playable and accessible. No other form of media is as endangered as video games. There is no legal path to preserve or archive video games. You can go to libraries and archives for books years out of print. You can rent a movie or download a pdf. There is no legal equivalent for video games. Games companies do not double as archival organisations and they never will. They have never been about preserving. They are about selling. Which is not inherently evil compared to anyone else but they along with the law are directly preventing archivers and preservationists from doing their job and allowing this entire medium to be experienced in the future.
Think of some of the most influential video games of all time. How many of them can you play right now. Without piracy. How many of these could your not very technology literate friend play. How do you think this is affecting not only the wider industry now but also people in the future. And for completely arbitrary meaningless reasons.
