i like that people in power in england have forever been half-saying what they mean, then dealing with the fallout of people interpreting exactly what they mean, always in the sway of "tell us how you really feel" from Turrel, The Ritual of Royal Healing in Early Modern England, 1999
in light of recent games journalists being pathetic about the support for pro-Palestinian anti-apartheid measures, C. L. R. James (1963) talking about how as a games journalist you can be a prominent and powerful anti-colonial figure in a national movement, before video games even existed

testing out plano with 'dilbert remade from memory' good tool thank u @bagenzos.house bagenzo.itch.io/plano
Echo Night (FromSoftware, 1998, psx), loved this, very atmospheric and uncanny, relatively short and features great environments and ghosts... this being a perfect example of the kind of thing that unravels as you explore a haunted ship through spirit memories. would recommend.
to honor this i should make an advert with a beautiful woman with a face tattoo that makes you think the game will be about cool beautiful women instead of being a little freak in a spaceship... like 1998's Forsaken
