Georgiou also got fridged for Michael’s character development. And then we follow Michael over the timeskip. Right out the gate, the universe exists to tell a story about Michael.

I think Zero might be a he/they enby

Insulting Janeway’s coffee is a dangerous move, holo-Rok

Mariner interrupts Boimler’s captain’s log in S1E1

Having a good clone protocol is important. Rok had the right idea.

I hope Robert Beltran isn’t around next season. Surely they can recast Chakotay. Maybe give the role to an actual native turtle islander?

“I haven’t seen a crew this dysfunctional since the Cerritos.”

Hey a Lower Decks reference!

Terra Nil. It’s an anti city builder. Land in a polluted wasteland, clean the soil, plant seeds, set up ecosystems, make sure they can persist without you, and recycle all your structures before you leave. Appreciate the beauty of the natural ecosystem you restored as you fly away.

I want more games like this.

Antichamber is the game like Portal

This is so cool. I bet Beta Shift would love it.

I’m going to vote ranked choice, because first past the post is antidemocratic!

4, 1, 2, 3

To be fair the blonde bombshell in a catsuit was initially nonbinary.

And then Janeway immediately gave it conversion therapy and told it to be a woman.

Well the last one was One so this one must be Two

Whereas in a communist economy where people didn’t have to struggle to survive, game developers could focus on improving their craft and telling whatever the funnest story they can think of is. We can already see this on a small scale with the difference between indie passion projects like Hades, and AAAA cash grabs like suicide squad. Imagine if everyone could afford to chase their passion instead of money.

According to the game sales industry, providing a useful service is anticompetitive behaviour, because you might steal customers from the platforms that are screwing everyone.

I disagree. The bad reviews and refunds produced, effectively, a single bad week for the company, while getting the publisher to backtrack on a decision that would have slowly but surely killed both the game and the company. Spitz saved Arrowhead. Unfortunately, instead of capitalising on the cooperation between developers and players to win back their reputations and make the game profitable again, Arrowhead decided to throw away Spitz’ hard work by firing him, ruining their reputation just after he saved it for them. Now they’re fucked.

The way I see it, their only chance to return to profitability is for them to explain that Spitz was fired for his earlier comments mocking players for complaining about PSN. If they did that, the players would return to Arrowhead’s side. But if the narrative that he was fired for sticking with the players and saving the company prevails, then Arrowhead is doomed.

Arkane’s gone? Aw.
