Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2 was a hell of a game. I had never heard of Bad Religion before that, and they're still my favorite band (their most recent single isn't great, but they can't all be winners)

(note: this video is on the official Epitaph Records YouTube account, so I don't think there's any legal issue posting it)

No discussion about good-ass cyberpunk names is complete without at least some mention of Friends at the Table, an actual play podcast hosted by former BEaster and friend of the site, Waypoint's Austin Walker. This current season in particular, Twilight Mirage, the FatT crew is on their bullshit like never before. For instance, the player characters are named...

• Tender Sky
• Gig Kep-hart
• Even Gardner
• Grand Magnificent
• Echo Reverie
• ⸢Signet⸣ (shortened from her full name, "They marked scars of light in pitch; born in fiercest purpose, and beheld as the signet sealed upon our pact")
• Fourteen Fifteen

God, the mini-games in DR2 are so bad. They're like the already bad mini-games from DR1, except they're worse, and you have to do more of them!

I don't want an Eisenhorn game unless it's a point and click adventure where you investigate and prosecute threats to the Imperium and it's called Law and Ordo.

I don't know anything about it other than the 20 minutes or so I saw of Patrick playing it on a stream, but Yoku's Island Express looks real promising.

The pitch: What if Sonic Spinball was a Metroidvania (but maybe secretly also Mass Effect*?)

*I don't know if it's a big mechanic later on, but at one point in the stream, Patrick had to make a Paragon/Renegade style moral decision (you have to find a mushroom for an NPC, but there's also a poison mushroom hidden nearby that you can give to them)

Also, the game is cute as hell

Bright yellow mustard-ass mustard
or
A sinus-clearing spicy mustard (preferably with horseradish for extra oomph)
or
Chili, cheese, onions, gimme that Sonic the Hedgehog dog

I didn't eat breakfast this morning so looking at this topic was a huge mistake >_<

This specifically is where the problem is. A personal choice of an individual don't really matter all that much by itself, in the grand scheme of things. But if enough individuals make these one-off personal choices over a long enough span of time, it starts to look like a deliberate attack on a culture.

In other words, a white guy going to a Halloween party dressed like a native American isn't an isolated incident. He's part of a larger group. There are other white dudes at other Halloween parties wearing the same cheap costume, which was only made by the costume company because enough other white dudes bought the company's "Big Chief" costume the previous year, and the years before that.

THAT'S why it's a problem.

I am a big fan of this bold prediction.

Dang, people really pulled through at the last second! When I posted in this thread about 2 weeks ago, it was trending solidly toward finishing at 80%. (from https://www.kicktraq.com/projects/476090608/the-good-life/)
