My biggest hope for Elder Scrolls 6 / Fallout 5 is that Bethesda drops the way they currently program "essential" characters (wherein you try to kill them and they crouch for a minute before getting up and fighting back, and this repeats until you take a nap) and brings back this good Morrowind shit

lot of things i could say here but mostly i guess i would like to implore everyone to find a personality other than "least favorite roommate during a house meeting in portland, oregon"
Mayor Mamdani has nullified every executive order issued by Eric Adams after he struck his corrupt bargain with Trump to secure dismissal of the indictment against him.
yesterday while I was at the gym listening to gaming podcasts talk about their personal goty lists (as you do), I realized that I already collect data about all the games I play on my website so could easily build a ranking system to make my own list... so I did: tekniklr.com/goty/2025
"According to the…annual Harris Poll, for the 1st time, a majority of Americans believe billionaires are a threat to democracy. A remarkable 71% believe there should be a wealth tax.

Again, apologizing to all videogame environment artists who knocked up satirical posters for their games, I should not have rolled my eyes, yes, even you Cyberpunk billboard team, I am sorry

Has anyone else found it weird how little buzz there seems to be around Metroid Prime 4, being that it's a well loved (and neglected) franchise, and it dropped last week? Like, I had to actually search for it to find anyone streaming it on twitch.
