Bloober bomb

I assuming here, and may be wrong, you mean their own odds with their rather interesting history of games?

Apropos of nothing, Bloober Odds anagrams to Slobber Dodo.

Were it only that benign. But that’s not the world we live in, I’m afraid.

Tom · October 4, 2024, 4:33pm

Care to enlighten me? I’ve read a bit about them, not familiar with their games at all - but if what I have read is true it seems that it’s how they have handled mental health and other parts of the human condition.

I may be way off the mark, but I am eager to learn here. SH2 is a favourite game of mine for many reasons so I am watching this remake carefully.

Tom your good natured and credulous questions are defusing my efforts to insinuate video game journalists are being racist against Polish people

Tom · October 4, 2024, 5:04pm

I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to get in the way of that! I was hoping that any issues would only be based on the quality of their work and not where they’re working.

Please continue to insinuate, I’ll be a silent observer now!

What?! I’m always reading reviews that say a game doesn’t have enough Polish.

God Is Good

it is the duty of every polish dev to create Witcher spinoffs in the roguelite, tower defense, and gacha genres

rejj · October 6, 2024, 6:36am

Look I’m sorry yeso but Bloober are having a laugh here

yeso · October 6, 2024, 7:34am

that’s on konami

I just couldn’t get into the gwent game despite efforts unfortunately :/

yeso · October 7, 2024, 12:12pm

after posting that 7/X/2024 date and nothing further Ice Pick now posting about nonlinear time. Unprecedented move by a video game developer to treat release dates as dislocated from the time-space continuum, and more should try this imo

I had never heard about Phoenix Springs until absolutely glowing reviews started popping up in my news feed about a half hour ago.

Releases today. Looks cool as fuck.

Yeah, it’s beautiful! I hope it’s as engaging as it is eye-catching.

There’s a lot of potential to explore what exactly a video game can be when it comes to interactive fiction and adventure/visual novel type stuff where different types of traditional media can merge in unique ways. (That sentence makes sense in my brain, not sure if I’m explaining my thoughts coherently.)

sabertoothalex · October 7, 2024, 5:08pm

I know what yeso is typing rn

yeso · October 7, 2024, 5:08pm

smash that wishlist button everyone!

(Trailer probably needs a CW for hanged child corpse)

Ice Pick Lodge will get to the bottom of this:

What is time?

Mnemogenic · October 7, 2024, 5:23pm

Weren’t they still doing work on 2?
