glad ppl are finally opening their eyes to how classist people are when it comes to others watching gameplay as a form of interacting with a game.. like no not everyone's gonna have the money for a pc/console nevermind the game itself

You got to be really careful around someone who has intellectual horsepower like this, but is capable of playing dumb most of the time. Sociopath archetype

A dad says Valve has “a customer for life” after the company sent him a free replacement Steam Deck case. He reached out to Steam Support after his baby threw up on the original case and asked if he could buy a new one. Instead, Valve told him they had already ordered a replacement and would send it free of charge. “Valve has a customer for life. I reached out asking if I could buy a replacement case after my newborn got sick all over mine, and they just sent one for free.” “I know it’s a small thing, but this kind of customer service means a lot.”

many reasons 1. accessibility 1a. money 1b. age 1c. platform/device 1d. region 1e. game is not on market 2. enjoyment 2a. game is more story than gameplay 2b. gameplay is lackluster/not necessary 3. previewing before buying 4. etc who are you to be policing?

According to persona fans you can only be a fan of a game if you have played it yourself

"Play some classics" And here we go. This is where the misunderstanding starts. When people on Xitter say "I want to get into gaming", they mean "I want to partake in the zeitgeist and that requires buying 80 dollar games and 700 dollar consoles

Me because everything is so boring rn

Pre Columbian Basalt Sculpture of a Homosexual Copulating Couple (1000-1500 CE) - Costa Rica 🇨🇷 This unusual Costa Rican sculpture is of two naked males wearing flat headdresses engaging in a homosexual activity. Carved of basalt stone, the sculpture is highly stylized and created in a simple, minimal manner. The larger man stands behind, with his hands firmly holding the shoulders of the smaller man. Such pose generates the feeling of tension, more of a power play between the men than the sexual connotation. Although such scene of homosexual activity may have a certain connotation for people today, the people of Ancient Costa Rica had a quite different interpretation. Wearing little clothing was a symbol of high class for Ancient Costa Ricans because only people who worked in the fields had to wear clothing to protect their sensitive areas such as the genital area. Costa Ricans also considered sex as the unpredictable force, which often leads to tension and destruction. Thus, sex was naturally analogized with beings of aggressive power, such as human males who were often warriors, the fighting force in their culture. Moreover, such activity had a ritualistic significance. During ceremonies, a strong, masculine warrior engaged in the sexual act with another warrior of lesser power to transfer his strength and virility. The basalt sculpture, then, embodies more conception and symbolism than just sex itself. Looking at this sculpture, we realize that symbolism can be interpreted in a myriad of ways depending on the culture and context in question. It behooves us to look below the surface to understand the intricacies of symbol systems and their use within a given culture during a given period. It only expands our understanding of the beauty and complexity of the overall human experience and its infinite expressions. Barakat Gallery, London #archaeohistories

My only concern is he broke up with his last girlfriend over the phone on Valentine’s Day ONE DAY after going public together because he thought she would be bad for his public image and brand because she used to be a sex worker. He was fine being with her in private but not public. Considering Keke’s ex also trying to shame her for wanting to have fun and not being a traditional woman I just hope Sean doesn’t try to change her.

Let it be known: female protagonists in gaming wouldn't be where they are today without Ellie Williams. She helped bring them into the mainstream and proved they could lead some of gaming's greatest stories. So whenever you see a peak female protagonist, be grateful for Ellie🐐
