Mai_Andra: "Word." -Bison, overheard
CrossXhunteR: what about the hypocrisy?
Mr_Horrible:

Mr_Horrible: yeah bury his ass

BlueMechanic: One always lies and one is always wrong
247Gremlin: I liked the Dropout conceit of one always lies, and the other is always wrong
RockPusher: One leg tells only lies, the other, also lies.
TXC2: but also the hamsters talk?
Mr_Horrible: do they understand the concept of "truth"?
mtvcdm: The Princess Auto service desk sees Beej and goes 'oh no him again'

kingandcommoner: I pick the Adam that is not short
Mr_Horrible: I let neither out, to honor his principles
Invitare: put the jar tops against each other and take the lids off, so the two men can fight to be the one who's freed
RockPusher: Let out the one that demands you don't let either of them out
RockPusher: Get that man a bagged chicken!
OldUncleDan: Is one noticeably louder than the other? Cause I would prefer the more sedate one.

richard_ermen: Wait...is there a "Tall Shop"? Does it sell height? Can I buy five centimeter?
OldUncleDan: @TXC2 I know marathoners who are also around that level.

RockPusher:

richard_ermen: Will the Guild Navigator go "I was never here. This discussion never happened. You have never found me in a jar." ?
TXC2: OldUncleDan oh really? makes sense I guess
Invitare: also there's a lot of spice in that jar. You could sell it
247Gremlin: You find a man in a jar and a man in a box. Which do you let out?
richard_ermen: Are we talking Jar as in 1984 David Lynch-style big trailer jar, or more like tiny jar?
DoodlestheGreat: Are we on the Plain of Jars?
mtvcdm: Again, if need be, he's a weapon now. Smash him over the head of the next goblin.
RockPusher: get the worlds biggest strap wrench
richard_ermen: Why do I feel like the "Guild Navigator in a Jar"-question is a sort of Voight-Kampff-test?

richard_ermen: "There'S a jar in the woods" sounds like a sentence from the Shia LeBeouf-song.

Jillexie: Police Quest 1
247Gremlin: I feel like you have to do that in one of the Yakuzas but it's koi koi.
richard_ermen: The Police Quest games have had some really bizarre puzzles...remember, you're a police officer trying to solve a serial murder case.
mtvcdm: It threatened a sequel in the credits
richard_ermen: Was 5 the one where he started as an interstellar space...janitor?
RubikDarkwill: Welcome to Chillpoint
OldUncleDan: Officer Jan Itor?
richard_ermen: Ohhh, right. I somehow dimly remember him starring on the title screen as the indomitable space captain only to turn out its a daydream or simulation or whatever?
TXC2: Lister's job was to make sure the vending machines were fully stocked up

gnyrinn: "Award winning" - One of the devs won an essay-writing contest when they were 11.
TXC2: gnyrinn "winner of 3 of the 5 awards we made up"
RockPusher: enumerating the engines would be difficult though
Juliamon: the engine should 100% be a tag
RockPusher: Code language tags
gnyrinn: @TXC2 The other 2 went to Expedition 33, as having some awards and not give some to it would just have been rude.
mtvcdm: I think the engine should be a separate category of tag: Unity, Unreal, Proprietary, whatever others, 'other'.
RockPusher:
Proudly written in #brainfuck 
TXC2: gnyrinn indeed
RockPusher: Snakes on Film!
DoodlestheGreat: "Show me movies shot on Panaflex cameras." is not an unreasonable request.
TXC2: IMDB covers cinematographers, so it kinda covers cameras....
OldUncleDan: And the related Internet Movie Gun database.
RatherLargeToad: as popularized in “From Rewatch With Love”
Marvoleath: as long as they preserve the "psychological horror" tag for all the cute anime games
TXC2: OldUncleDan which has some fantastic trivia on it
CaptainSpam: At some point I'd argue it'd be better to assign that to a more specialist database.
RockPusher:
Look, we got a Capybaras tag, Valve are objectively correct in this regard 
Marvoleath subscribed at Tier 1. They've subscribed for 36 months!

RockPusher:
Marvoleath congrats on new 
LordZarano: Or open steam support -> my account -> data related to your steam account -> store -> game user tag votes
mtvcdm: Apparently Everything Is Crab got a Capybara tag
Akaiatana: Frame-narrative gameplay, yeah
kingandcommoner: amogus?
Desruprot: Rock and Stone
kingandcommoner: There is a certain allure to digging a deep hole
ArtDecoSunburn: Reminds me of the niche lists people make on BoardGameGeek.
SocraticMethod: hyper-specific tags can lead tag dilution because it catches all the games that have minor parts of it, like searching for non-main Ao3 tag. It
SocraticMethod: it's great for exclusion, not so good for inclusion
Izandai: Most of tags on Tumblr posts being useless is because of Tumblr's tag search being bad, not how people tag posts.
Juliamon: ^
ArtDecoSunburn: @SocraticMethod I just like typing "Holy Roman Empire" in the Steam search and seeing what shows up.
LordZarano: Anyway, go add the Photography tag to this list of games so it becomes a real tag: Umurangi Generation, Alba, Pupperazzi, TOEM, Shashingo, Beasts of Maravilla Island, NUTS, ISO, Alekon, SEASON, Shutter Stroll, The Star Named Eos, OPUS: Prism Peak, Beyond Good and Evil
SocraticMethod: @ArtDecoSunburn That's great when there is a surplus of games about HRE, less so when vast majority of results are EUIV content packs because the main game has a HRE
mtvcdm: Given the full list of tags on Steam, I would say the twelve least-used, from least to most, are... noting many of them are new tags: Reboot, Snooker, Rugby, Zoo, Wolves, Language Learning, Cricket, Capybaras, Volleyball, Falling Blocks, Poker, Cult.
kingandcommoner: when it can breed with others of its kind
MouDK subscribed with Prime.
LRRbot:
Thanks for subscribing, MouDK! (Today's storm count: 19)
TXC2:
mtvcdm interesting that Reboot is the least used given how often the industry does it
Invitare: cannot stand "roguelite". Overly granular
ArtDecoSunburn: @SocraticMethod Precisely. I don't want uniform packs, I want some indy eccentrics dream Margrave simulator.
SocraticMethod: I don't thin Rogue legacy is metroidvania because it lacks the backtracking aspect. It has metroidvania aesthetics, though. How would someone tag separation between mechanics and aesthetics, though?
Izandai: @Invitare Agreed.
kingandcommoner: There are few enough games outside of rogue that actually check all the roguelike boxes that roguelite feel reundant
Marvoleath:
@SocraticMethod easy - metroidvania-like vs metroidvania-lookalike
OldUncleDan: @kingandcommoner There is far more to it than that. For instance even though they are the same species, Domestic Rabbits cannot mate with Wild Rabbits.
ArtDecoSunburn: @mtvcdm So Capybara Snooker Volleyball Poker on Falling Blocks that Teach You French would hit multiple demos? Ka-ching!
ArtDecoSunburn: @Izandai The thing about all Rogue-derived naming schemes is that they mean I can not find any games about actually being a rogue.
SocraticMethod: @kingandcommoner That's the point I was trying to make above. If tagging is maximally exclusive, how does one search for Rogue-likes like Cogmind or ToME?
gnyrinn: There's a whole song, and plot point in a musical, about how different pool and billiards are.
ralphthellama: Give us a Snooker tag, you cowards!
RubikDarkwill: For example: Only Sleeping
LordZarano: I'm Only Sleeping is an indie game yeah
ArtDecoSunburn: @gnyrinn And a proper Edwardian gentleman's country house billiards room would separate tables for both.
RubikDarkwill: Only Sleeping is actually a game, not for webcams of sleeping
LordZarano: And it's impossible to find a stream of it
gnyrinn: @RubikDarkwill Would Beatles Rockband include the tag Only Sleeping?
kingandcommoner: @SocraticMethod Roguelite is already a less specific category than roguelike. you're not meaningfully filtering out anything by choosing roguelite over roguelike. All you're filtering for is subjective opinion
gnyrinn: @ArtDecoSunburn A gentleman doesn't have pool in his house! Only proper billiards, or possibly Snooker.
TXC2: that's a wild stat
TheMerricat: Just a heads up, Boardgame Root -is- a category on Twitch, at least now. You have to look for all caps root.
goombalax: is it employees who have babies with eachother?
ArtDecoSunburn: @gnyrinn The gentleman does when he had to marry an American "dollar bride" to keep the estate flush. Young Miss Vanderbilt's family play pool when they come to visit.
Marvoleath: Is it paying ppl to have babies, or paying ppl who would have babies anw?
OldUncleDan: I'd bet good money that there is some sort of Japanese Manga/Anime/etc. based on this idea.
ArtDecoSunburn: @kingandcommoner Is there "Rogue-ish?" Or "Rogue-lime" ?
kingandcommoner: also, a reasonable proof of concept: "You want me to have kids, then make it so I won't go bankrupt"
TXC2:
or they could just pay people a decent wage, and build affordable family housing. but that socialism and we can have that now can we
TXC2: *can't
ArtDecoSunburn: @TXC2 Something something Eugene Debs.
TheMerricat: So as a reminder we're talking about South Korea it's not just a decent wage and giving them the abilityto have affordable housing, this is also a country that rivals Japan in horrible work-life expectations
ArtDecoSunburn: Kids tend to be net positives for states, so they should pay to induce.
Marvoleath: Here we have social fund that pays for things like this, or other 'big events' like weddings or less fun things - funerals etc.
ArtDecoSunburn: @TheMerricat Also facing a steep population cliff, in part due to its national corporate culture and general sexism.
Marvoleath: and that comes from company money, but it's not a lot
SocraticMethod: @kingandcommoner I would like to be able to filter out Dead Cells from Caves of Qud because those are two different genres, but I recognize that the battle is lost. But I reject the original thesis that they are redundant, just unpopular
TheMerricat: @ArtDecoSunburn I guess I did forget about the rampant sexism.
RockPusher: Need to grow the national tax base otherwise the government might decide to tax the company more.
ArtDecoSunburn: @TheMerricat It's one reason why beauty culture there is so intense. Cosmetics are huge in Korea.
Izandai:
BusTed:
ghyllnox: Canada: Team Order
RockPusher: Which is why people get in a flag about declining birth rates
badpandabear:
RockPusher: *flap
gnyrinn: Remember Canadian Idealism? It's back - in POG form!
TheMerricat: Not to be combative but the government does do that too in South Korea this is on top of that.
Decaped: Korea do be not European
TXC2: UK has (had?) the child tax credits
TXC2: Decaped indeed, it's almost as far from Europe as one can get
TXC2: Japan has had a declining birthrate for DECADES
mtvcdm: Babies are expensive as hell
TheMerricat:
But but. but they have all those 'free' abandoned homes you can get in Japan you can get if you are willing to live in rural Japan. 
Marvoleath: on the other hand, often people in poverty are having more children than the middle-class

Laserbeaks_Fury: yeah, honestly, I would be distancing myself from X as much as possible

RubikDarkwill: I mean, Playstation walked theirs back, so...
Eklinaar: That sounds like Microsoft making bots to vote for that
ProcyonFlynn: The grognards of the console wars are still around, and still weird.
SocraticMethod: Exclusives sell console -> Bigger customer base -> More money in the ecosystem
kingandcommoner: Yeah, but didn't we guess that was the plan for PS? Put out a few exclusives on PC so people have to buy the console for the sequel
Laserbeaks_Fury: Which is funny because I'm fairly certain Microsoft *doesn't* want to invest in the console market
TheMerricat: @Eklinaar Don't even need bots, if they just opened an obscure site and only told the 'rihht' people about it.
SocraticMethod: Otherwise why buy 🅇🄱🄾🅇 when you can buy 🅟🅛🅐🅨🅢🅣🅐🅣🅘🅞🅝 5 and get Xbox AND PS stuff
Decaped: MIcrosoft is not a consumer hardware manufacturer.
RubikDarkwill: @SocraticMethod Exclusives sell less than if it was available everywhere -> Less income -> Less money
Decaped: Nintendo and Sony are.
Laserbeaks_Fury: Yeah, they really just want to own the games and spreadthem out as much as possible

ProcyonFlynn:
Thank you TXC2 
ArtDecoSunburn: @Decaped Could merge the divisions.
TheMerricat: I played in the gore. I remember $0.25 carts sitting in a pile outside every store in the mall because so many companies sold Atari games and had to liquidate their stock.
SocraticMethod: @RubikDarkwill That doesn't look to be universally true, though. PC ports of PS5 games are a minuscule fraction of total sales and Nintendo is powerhouse. As much as I wish otherwise, having single platform for optimization is actually helping a lot
Juliamon: Psychology is a hell of a thing
Vinewood_OG: Now all restaurants are Taco Bell.
mtvcdm: It's so weird trying to buy things to try and be the winner
ProcyonFlynn: And there there's Steam/Valve - doing the Tumblr model of "ignore them and stay in the lane"
RockPusher: Humans gonna human
RockPusher: and Beej has just described in abstract the trajectory of many companies
Laserbeaks_Fury: I don't care who wins the derby, I just wanna feed carrots to horses.
RockPusher: see also, Apple
mtvcdm: Worrying about console power is a part of why consoles are so expensive now
ProcyonFlynn: @Laserbeaks_Fury Are the horses the Game-Devs in this metaphor?
mtvcdm: Not every game needs to be Crysis

LRRbot: Next scheduled stream: Friday Night Paper Fight (Many Magic the Gathering players ask the question, wanna watch LRR play some more Premodern? Game: Magic: The Gathering) at Fri 05:00 PM PDT (2:36 from now).
TheMerricat: @ProcyonFlynn Oh believe me, they aren't as loud as Nintendo/Sony / Xbox fanboys but there are definitely Steam/Valve stand out there patting themselves on the back about how superior PC gamers are and by extension since Steam is the superior digital store place for PC games they are the best people out there
TheMerricat: Stannds--> stans
Laserbeaks_Fury: Same here, I loved Horizon and God of War, so I invested in a PS5, but if I know those titles are going to be on PC eventually, I probably woudn't be interested in getting a PS6
SquareDotCube: Gamer Scores
SocraticMethod: Also, multiplayer games are usually segmented by the network, so shrinking xbox console base also shrinks the playerbase for multiplayer games. Now if cross-play would be on by default it would be completely different
kingandcommoner: It's the green one
Akaiatana: Halo. Gears of War. Armoured scifi
Vinewood_OG: Chud leaning
mtvcdm: Good question Heather. Next question.
kingandcommoner: XBox was the Jock Console
SquareDotCube: Also Xbox LIVE, which stood out at a time where online on a console wasn't much of a factor
RockPusher: Xbox made FPS on console a thing
kingandcommoner: It had Jade Empire...
RockPusher: that's probably the biggest contribution
BusTed: I remember playing a lot of Jade Empire, yeah
TXC2: Xbox is american, playstation is Japanese, nintendo is Japanese, but for kids, that's the VERY narrow look at it
TheMerricat: PlayStation is the Darksouls console. Xbox is the shooter console
Decaped: I could make the argument Nintendo is American
lock3dinabox: Was Fable og Xbox or 360?
RockPusher:
At least, biggest contribution they intended - XBMC is also a pretty good legacy
Decaped: or was....maybe not anymore
SocraticMethod: Are we talking about exclusives, because Xbox had KOTOR, Morrowind, Fable to name few
SocraticMethod: PS had lots of JRPGs
kingandcommoner: To be fair, FF jumped ships literally as soon as it was viable
SocraticMethod: @lock3dinabox OG
RockPusher: also as the hardware converged
Laserbeaks_Fury: I wonder if it's because the next gen consoles are getting ready to cycle up
TheMerricat:
@kingandcommoner And after Nintendo burnt Sony 
SquareDotCube: let's be honest here, it's also a desire of nostalgic pride
RockPusher: going from a specialised computing devices to effectively a very locked down PC
Gekyouryuu: crash and spyro
TheMerricat: Rich.
Decaped: What console is my phone now? like a PS4?
TXC2:
you phone is the gameboy
ProcyonFlynn: I think there's also the cultural space as well. Japan has weird relationships with conglomerates and subdivisions being allowed to exist without homogenizing into a 'microsoft style' integration. Sony feels to be going increasingly 'world market' style of business - but nintendo seems deadset on 'brand identity IS part of the product, and the responsibility'
RubikDarkwill: And they are all too expensive to do that now
LordZarano: My phone is a Gamecube. Cause Dolphin runs perfectly on it
Gekyouryuu: vita died before switch even happened, because Sony can't do shit
SocraticMethod: Vita means Life!
ErynTzun: Fable was on the original Xbox, there's definitely not just one RPG on it. Japanese developers did not develop for the Original Xbox all that much, that was the difference. The Xbox was not popular in japan because they would buy Japanese consoles.
Gekyouryuu: i also have my vita still. near where I sleep, even
RockPusher:
The Vita died because the GameGear died so that the GameBoy and Switch could live
ProcyonFlynn: Also - Xbox is responsible for Windows 8.0s idiotic metro-start-menu-ui [I may never have forgiven them for that]
TXC2: ProcyonFlynn I thought tablets were the reason for that?
SocraticMethod: @ErynTzun Yeah, even Morrowind got a port for OG xbox. Not to mention KoTOR 1 was pretty big event
ProcyonFlynn: "One interface for all the devices" it was good on the phones, okay on the xbox, frustrating on tablets, and hell on PC.
RockPusher: ProcyonFlynn the metro interface itself *was* good on tablet - the real sin MS committed there was trying to force it onto desktops where it wasn't so good
RockPusher: (and I'm underselling "wasn't so good" there)
kingandcommoner: It's hard to justify buying it just to play games on the go twice a year when I'm away from my computer for days at a time
Anubis169: Well, exclusives are what built the gaming industry in the first place
RockPusher: The idea that a UI for touch will work for desktop and vice-versa is a faulty one
ProcyonFlynn:
- I can almost see it being good on tablets, but the default gesture controls were a nightmare and nobody could ever remember them. Having to print out a "guide" for a UI is a pretty damning judgement.
RockPusher:
Game Name! 
Anubis169: Egg's Box!
SocraticMethod: Steamdeck sold 4 million units lifetime. For comparison, Switch 2 sold about as much during the launch week
Laserbeaks_Fury: Xbox is dead. Long live the XBOX
ErynTzun: Already have a PC, there's never been a reason to to have an Xbox past the first one which I bought as it was easily modded to add a larger hard drive and install the games directly on it cutting the load time down. This was before solid state drives in consoles.
Anubis169: Oh...
TXC2: right chat I'm off
RockPusher: 'night TXC2
Anubis169:
Take care TXC2 
TXC2: Goodnight everybody, and thanks for streaming Heather, Paul and Beej
Anubis169 tags
Laserbeaks_Fury: Didn't have that mode in a Mario Party?
Strebenherz: Take care TXC2
TheMerricat: Night @TXC2 !
ErynTzun: It just looks a lot like face raiders it just doesn't play like that, I think that's the most of what people seem to be saying.
Laserbeaks_Fury: oh no, are they going to develop the technology to project the children of you and your favorite Fire Emblem character?
ProcyonFlynn: Reddit is still online, there are people saying it.
RockPusher: To be fair to Beej, the hoovering the image data up for nefarious purposes *was* the first thought I had about it
RockPusher: but I am particularly primed for that thinking for professional reasons
gualdhar: weird that Beej went straight to the Pinkertons...
LordZarano: WarioWare developers: Nintendo R&D1 (2003), Intelligent Systems (2003–present), Nintendo SPD (2004–2013), Tose (2023)
TheMerricat:
Chat, last night I started my bread machine making a 2lb loaf of caraway seed rye bread, telling myself I'd have a few slice with the chili I have in the fridge. It is now 4:30PM the next day... I have a heel of the loaf left and I'm not sure even that will survive to the end of Chillpoint... and I haven't reheated a single smidge of chili yet.
RockPusher:
TheMerricat sounds delicious, I endorse the decisions you have made
Laserbeaks_Fury: Is there an app to scan you head so you can manipulate it like Mario 64
Decaped: It doesn't even have to be for nefarious purposes, either. All it takes is a stupidly overbroad subpoena and an agreeable japanese government official, and any data they have stored is given.
Marvoleath: More and more countries also block social media access for children, which could potentially limit the audience
SocraticMethod: Isn't there a way to detect and block screen recording? IIRC Snapchat uses it.
ProcyonFlynn:
Have you ever thought about how much data Jackbox has on people? 
Marvoleath: @SocraticMethod There is, but you can usually override it with debug
RockPusher: You already voted Wiggins off the island
RubikDarkwill: Onto the other sinking ship
Lord_Hosk: If I had to guess... None of the debt
TheMerricat:
TBF I think Wiggins voted himself off the island.
ArtDecoSunburn: @TheMerricat You need Chili-point as inspiration.
TheMerricat:
@ArtDecoSunburn
RockPusher: Fellowship of the Profitable IPs
Laserbeaks_Fury: It would be really funny if they named the company with everything that's left Armus
SocraticMethod: Embracer should change their name, too. I guess they skipped Extender and should go straight to Extinguisher
ghyllnox: I don't want to pigeonhole you, but I've got this *great* pigeonhole!
RockPusher: I wonder what the local market for a LotR game would be
ArtDecoSunburn: Embracer is bizarre in that at one point their twoconsistent acquisition categories were board game companies and European parking lots.
Vinewood_OG: @SocraticMethod Extruder?
TheMerricat: Embracer Group - HR Violation Group - Escorted out of the Building by Security Group
RockPusher: Since at least in theory, LotR and The Hobbit are public domain in my jurisdiction
ArtDecoSunburn: @Vinewood_OG That's probably the term for the division they have that destroys family protractor businesses.
TheMerricat: @RockPusher .... What country is that?
RockPusher: TheMerricat New Zealand
Vinewood_OG: Here, have some debt.
SocraticMethod: Huh, Deux Ex is Embracer IP. I though Aspyr was a squenix support devs
Laserbeaks_Fury: It's like seeing the women and children getting put into lifeboats and you start asking "Is the boat sinking?"
TheMerricat: @RockPusher Ah I did not know that New Zealand was the only country in the world that did 50+ life instead of 70+ life or when Disney says so.
ArtDecoSunburn: "Let them die" is the universal final stage of private capital groups
RockPusher: TheMerricat we are in an interesting position since extending to Life+70 *was* done as part of a trade agreement, however it doesn't take effect until a particular party of that agreement ratifies the agreement and that party pulled out of the agreement before ratification
SocraticMethod: Embracer could have gotten a money printer if they'd have given remaster to Nightdive instead of delaying it indefinitely
TheMerricat:
@RockPusher Win win?
gualdhar: slowed acceleration of profit growth? is that what they mean?
anosognostic: v a l u e c r e a t i o n
Laserbeaks_Fury:
There should be a word for negative profit
ArtDecoSunburn: A plug for "Barbarians at the Gate," where a CEO trying to take his company private begs for support to free up from bad management -- namely himself.
Vinewood_OG: Hi, I'm Maximilien Robespierre, and welcome to Jackass.
RockPusher: TheMerricat indeed, it's a state of technical weirdness I hope holds indefinitely
Marvoleath: number go up, never down, never stop
Mai_Andra: say it together, "infinite growth is not real"
ArtDecoSunburn: Sycophants (coughs) Tesla board.
Marvoleath: and now the US government is like that too (to an extent)
TheMerricat: "While clinical psychosis (characterized by hallucinations or delusions) is not typical in executives, research shows about 21% of CEOs display clinically significant psychopathic traits. This high rate of antisocial personality traits—like a lack of empathy and a fearless dominance—often helps leaders navigate high-stakes corporate environments."
ArtDecoSunburn: Great classic movie red, from 1954: "Executive Suite." About a board of directors fighting for a company's soul.
Invitare: it's why the games industry does actually need publishers sometimes. Just look at Star Citizen. Or Duke Nukem Forever
Anubis169: Being a bit of a cynic... why is it that whenever money's made, "Steve Jobs (for example) did XYZ and made loads of money", but whenever money's lost "The company didn't do so well this quarter" and no names mentioned
TheMerricat: @Anubis169 Obviously we failed because the company failed to get behind the CEO's vision and execute it properly.
Lord_Hosk: Sometimes its technology, and then you make avatar, and everyone says its a bad movie... but it makes a billion dollars.

Vinewood_OG: Wild Wild West
7gorobei: peter gruber
kingandcommoner: supposedly that's part of what killed Kevin Smith's superman movie
RatherLargeToad: wanted Superman to fight a giant mechanical spider
TheMerricat: @Lord_Hosk TBF in that scenario 'everyone says' is mostly 'everyone who bothered to get online and complain about it' which is a self selecting group. I know plenty of people who thought the first three Avatars were great. But they are terminally offline and/or online in very cliquish groups
e_bloc: Buffalo buffalo buffalo lololololololo (wicky) Any damsel that's in distress Be outta distress when she meet Jim Dress
Laserbeaks_Fury: And then we eventually got the Thanagarian Snarebeast
e_bloc: I think the world is better in it for that giant spider existing
Laserbeaks_Fury: In The Flash movie, there's snippets of alternate realities, and one was a Nic Cage Superman fighting a giant spider
TheMerricat: @SocraticMethod Well now, thats interesting.
e_bloc: god bless video games
Lord_Hosk: unfortunately... the world didn't change... enough
mtvcdm: But the world refused to change
TheMerricat: You say they'd be relaxed Paul but what if they were playing MTGA?
e_bloc: I tried playing a book once
Lord_Hosk: once
SaxPython: @e_bloc Ghost Ship // Cursed Voyage
RockPusher: The Candy ain't gonna Crush itself, Beej
TheMerricat: The world changed, but there was also backlash to that change, and now we are living in that backlash.
e_bloc: @SaxPython I think it was faerie mound something
TheMerricat:
@e_bloc Lone Wolf! 
ErynTzun: Hahaha
Foxmar320:
e_bloc:
476
ErynTzun: That tone deaf guy will never live that down
TheMerricat: That Spiro looked like it had been starved for the entire time
Decaped: Diablo Immortal is making millions of dollars tho.
ArtDecoSunburn: Not all phones play games. I have a Blackberry. It does play spreadsheets, though.
ErynTzun: That Spyro statue is neat but not my favorite design
TheMerricat:
@ArtDecoSunburn With the right macros, you can play games in spreadsheets, ipso facto... you can play games.
e_bloc: unfuck my house
Lord_Hosk: Heather "It can come into the house, but then you aren't coming behind it"
ErynTzun: I have a Palm Tro 700wx from 2006 it could technically run Doom
ErynTzun: *Treo
LRRbot:
If you see something funny or particularly noteworthy, make a Clip of it! Your clip could appear in a fortnightly video or be seen at https://www.twitch.tv/loadingreadyrun/clips (Please give your clips descriptive names if you want them to be seen!)
ErynTzun: My Handspring could also run other games but the games they made for Palm OS we're as varied as Windows. Mobile of the era
BusTed: "it's a living"
kingandcommoner: Tethercat
TheMerricat: As an old, I'm reminded that Atari held a contest right before it imploded with the Atari 2600 based on the * Quest games (SwordQuest, EarthQuest, etc) and the idea was the kids who won each of the games and decoded the secret in them first would get these trophy prizes that were worth $100k each or something similar. But the company went under before the contest actually was held so.... those prizes went missing somehow.
e_bloc: every day he wakes up and rolls a dante's inferno booth up a mountain to a convention
SquareDotCube: IIRC Dante's Inferno also spawned the infamous "Sin to Win" marketing contest
RockPusher: spotters
LilyOfTheVeil666: Yeah, the Dante's Inferno marketing campaign sure was...something
RockPusher: or if your outfit is big enough, pilot you like a ship
ErynTzun: As a person who wore a mascot costume for school. It was rather hell to try to navigate without someone to help
ProcyonFlynn: So Beej as a protogen. That tracks.
Thefluffiestguineapig: Yup, it sure was
e_bloc: if I were a furry I would simply just be an owl
e_bloc: 345 degrees easy
BusTed:
Foxmar320: That scans Heather yeah
Mr_Horrible: a "Mr. Met" of Beej
Snowcookies: yeah...
ErynTzun: Hahahahah BEEJifur
Foxmar320: Beej piloting a Beej mech
e_bloc: its like the gif of sting and he takes off a sting match and it's sting
Marvoleath: finally, the Meej made real
mtvcdm: !addquote (Heather) [now] Can you picture Beej in a giant mascot outfit of himself?
LRRbot: New quote #9585: "Can you picture Beej in a giant mascot outfit of himself?" —Heather [2026-05-22]
7gorobei: Beej on Titan
Lord_Hosk: I was just thinking. Giant Beej in the convention outfit
YFiddler:
GapFiller: Mecha Beej
ErynTzun: Oh yes the Meejifu
Mr_Horrible:
"REPENT" 
GapFiller: hmm or maybe Chu Chu Beej a la Xenogears
RockPusher: How is your stilt-walking Beej?
e_bloc: that might be his response with or without an outfit
Mr_Horrible: "My faithful ward is taking care of that for me"
RockPusher:
Foxmar320:
e_bloc: did you say hoop or poop
Vinewood_OG: X, the everything crap?
ErynTzun: Hopefully Meejifur won't destroy Tokyo
TheMerricat: *crumbles into ash*
e_bloc: no
SquareDotCube: also: the suit can double as a hazard suit to prevent Pax Pox
Foxmar320: My back hurts now
Mr_Horrible: Limited Walk Games
couchboyj: The games are still pink in the middle
kingandcommoner: over half of all the video games made were made after 2019 according to the gremlin that whispers into my ear
RockPusher: The physical article has value
ProcyonFlynn: At least it's a physical object.
RockPusher: the game maybe less so
e_bloc: very low supply and I suppose some sort of demand
Foxmar320: Gotta display Poop Slinger front and center
e_bloc: some?
DoodlestheGreat: SOME of us?
e_bloc: I'd rather spend 1k on a poop game than go to therapy
Mai_Andra: need help... to finance their copy and get it authenticated...
ErynTzun: I feel like now those kinds of collectors start YouTube channels now
Mr_Horrible: oh HELL yes, I hope this is what I think it is
RockPusher:
Counterfeit poop!
7gorobei: bootlegs?
Foxmar320:
Oh this is getting good 
Vinewood_OG: @Mr_Horrible You son of a bus, I'm in.
BusTed: Fascinating
YFiddler: Nice! Crash the market!
Marvoleath:
like chair company?
e_bloc: do the games work?
RockPusher: Were the stores all close by?
ErynTzun: Then there are some that don't know jack about games and just buy them to try to monitor the video of them buying the thing they have no interest in
kingandcommoner: very silly games
e_bloc: hold on I'll drive out there
RockPusher: As in, could it be attempting to launder a counterfeit to create provenance?
ErynTzun: Monitize, damn autocorrect
kingandcommoner: A romantic poop
couchboyj: The great white bat has great white guano
e_bloc: nevermind that's damn near north carolina
RockPusher: All of the above
ProcyonFlynn:
Chaos Gremlin in the wild ~ 
ErynTzun: Worthlesa like a any copy of Madden the next year
e_bloc: was there no room in the plot next to the ET graveyard?
Marvoleath: someone bought an abandoned container filled with those?
e_bloc: pateron dot com, where you can sponsor canadian chaos
ErynTzun:
The ET graveyard was unearthed with a lot of other Atati games, and some people value those crushed games . 
Marvoleath: 900 months later...
Lord_Hosk: Road trip to game stores selling them across the US
e_bloc: in other news, next week on watch + play
mtvcdm: I came across 26 copies of one of those Burger King games once
e_bloc: I mean it was produced professionally, so it actually is professional shit
mtvcdm: Rent a plane and a bunch of tiny parachutes
ProcyonFlynn: Shipping that had to cost like +500 dollars. That's not someone making money
TheMerricat: Now I'm getting flashbacks to the distruibuting the masks scene in V for Vendetta. :LD
TheAinMAP: If I remember right, there was an episode of "Elementary" where the victim had found the former landfill where the fictional version of the E.T. game was buried, and was selling one or two copies at a time.
e_bloc: @mtvcdm and thus the legend of BM Cooper
kingandcommoner: Just make a kickstarter and see who sues
ErynTzun: My grandmother used to have 12 of the exact same Return of the Jedi Burger King glasses because a family member worked there I. 83, and every time someone broke one she would get mad. I'm like, these are not going to be valuable because they are being used Gramma.
7gorobei: @e_bloc doe BM stand for bowel movement?
Foxmar320: Stealth poop
e_bloc: @7gorobei natch, game is poop slinger
Bruceski: Authors posting on Bluesky "three of the books in this store are now autographed."
GapFiller: James bonus homestreamed it yesterday yeh
LilyOfTheVeil666: There's a lot of weird discourse about it
GapFiller: can see why its already getting potentional GOTY nods based on his playthru
7gorobei: if you are of a certain age it hits much harder
Mr_Horrible: I've seen most folks basically say "if you were this kid, this will hit"
7gorobei: super cool of them
Mr_Horrible: it's also populated with a lot of b-sides and less popular tracks from the artists in question
RockPusher: The very concept of not licensing perpetually is utterly bonkers to me
Mr_Horrible: so the licenses probably aren't actually bonzo dollars
TheMerricat: A non-indie indie game
Mr_Horrible: it's more indie than Dave the Fuckin' Diver was lol
TheMerricat: Unfortunately I get stuck in the wrong corners of Youtube and all the angry people who are in scary corner I've been stuck in are angry because they made up shit about it to punch.
SocraticMethod: It has aesthetics of an indie game but it's being funded by AAA/AA publisher
Mr_Horrible: there's a lot of conspiracy theorizing about it regarding Annapurna (from people that didn't realize Annapurna was a publisher until 2 weeks ago)
allan_human: Mixtape is Aussie? so it’s all Regurgitator and Frenzal Rhomb songs?
ErynTzun: Annapurna Games, LLC (trade name: Annapurna Interactive) is an American video game publisher and developer. The company was founded in 2016 as a division of Annapurna Pictures. It focuses on publishing innovative and emotive indie games. In 2020 Annapurna launched an internal development studio.
Mr_Horrible:
it takes place in "Your Youth" if you're vaguely 30's-ish
TheMerricat: The biggest thing that wasn't just made up shit that I heard about it was people claiming it was "an industry plant" because somehow this was going to make the music in the game trend or something.
ErynTzun: Remember that those of us who were adults in the 90s also might like that music
LordZarano: James loved how it was deliberately a little vague about the year so more people could relate to it
kingandcommoner: maybe it pulled a Clue
mtvcdm: The Mixtape reviews average out to: uhhhhhhh good luck
ErynTzun: You don't just grow up and stop
Decaped: It is neat that this is basically a movie that would have come out had Hollywood not imploded.
RuiFaleiro: two of the bands in it are joy division and smashing pumpkins; those two are separated by at least 10 years
Mr_Horrible: @LordZarano honestly, I do really like that approach to a nostalgia-focused piece. Make it fuzzy
frnknstn: They weren't fast forwarding, they were rewinding side B
TheMerricat:
@frnknstn
ErynTzun: When you put in music from the 70 through the 90s that's a pretty big span
TheAinMAP:
Foxmar320: wat
Cptasparagus: maybe the devs thought it was like splicing film?
TheMerricat:
DoodlestheGreat: I'd rather just children lasers.
Mr_Horrible:
radiowasabi2014: i still have my sailor moon laserdiscs
DoodlestheGreat: Er, GIVE children lasers.
radiowasabi2014: lol
YFiddler: what?!
Mr_Horrible: to be fair *I* would think it's a rice cooker
ErynTzun: The Game Cube wasn't the problem. There was a different shaped thing that it was not very clear
DoodlestheGreat: @Mr_Horrible You'd likely be right.
FenrisSchafer: tbh, I would by a rice cooker in a game cube skin
Mr_Horrible: @FenrisSchafer also this
Lysander_salamander: That's a joke from Man of Mystery
radiowasabi2014: you could search frame by frame
public_key_reveal_party: Don't have chrome records, but I have ones with fake gold
DoodlestheGreat: @FenrisSchafer How about a toaster?
ErynTzun: That is a special kind of person who did not actually look at the disc
RuiFaleiro: a gamecube sized rice cooker would not produce enough rice for me, a single person, imo
Mr_Horrible:
@DoodlestheGreat nah, toaster's gotta be a GBA
gualdhar: there's no damn way
Ed25519: I saw that…. pretty amazing
Mr_Horrible: or maybe an N64?
Juliamon: Probably there was one with a lid
FenrisSchafer: @TheMerricat If only I used a toaster... but maybe?
radiowasabi2014: you had to flip the disc manually first
Mr_Horrible: I guess it depends on the form factor we want
convoyash: oh you sweet summer child
radiowasabi2014: to watch the other side
Foxmar320: Large cup holder
gnyrinn: @Foxmar320 How big are your cups?
ErynTzun: It looks like a VCR but you put a big disc in
Foxmar320: @gnyrinn Florida
