MAX MCGEE'S PROFILE

I CAN'T NOT MAKE GAMES.

I have enough lockerspace to hold an episode of Friends.

"We'll make a toast to absent friends and better days,
To remembering and being remembered as brave
And not as a bunch of whining jerks!

Don't lose your nerve.
Do not go straight
You must testify
(or I'm going to come to your house and punch you in the mouth)
cause CLOWNS MUST STAND."

- TW/IFS, "All The World Is A Stage Dive"
Iron Gaia
As the only human awake on board a space station controlled by an insane AI with delusions of deification, you must unravel the mystery of your own identity and discover: "What is the Iron Gaia?"

FF7 remake. It's a thing.

Ugh, you mean it's not going to be ATB/turn-based?

It's going to be the pseudo-MMORPG bullshit they've been spewing from FFXII onwards?

Goddamnit. Enthusiasm severely dampened if not entirely squelched.

Edit: If they made it like...an actual action RPG (idk like...Deus Ex or Mass Effect), that would be...interesting, at least.

I am legit excited and cannot stop smiling. My face hurts, guys. I mean, I hope they don't mess with it too much but damn, I called this shit years ago.

Word. I am so down for this.

I can very easily see the director imposing changes to increase continuity with the sequels

Final Fantasy has continuity now?

This petition is too damn important to be ignored. (trigger warning)

Before the relationship ended, and without my knowledge or consent, my ex filmed himself having sex with me, and when we broke up he posted them online and they were shared to over 30 pornography sites.

It wasn’t until two years after they were posted, when a link to one of those videos was emailed to me, that I found out they existed or even that this sexual encounter had taken place.

This is extremely strange wording that she is using. It makes it sound like she is actually saying that she was unaware that the sex act happened at the time it happened. I don't understand how this is even physically possible. (Unless she was unconscious from a date rape drug, but that is not the kind of thing anyone films and uploads to the internet, because it is clear evidence of you committing rape, so that can't be it.)

So yeah, the wording is just very confusing to me.

Revenge porn overall is a complicated, thorny, really interesting topic. Is everyone aware of the biggest scumbag in the world, his rise to power and his inevitable downfall? It makes for fascinating reading (Wikipedia's summary is dry and sparse, but check out the links). It even has a happy ending, because he is in jail now, and hopefully what happens to you sometimes when you go to jail is happening to him.

Obviously the "victims" of revenge porn are adults who made poor decisions. Even if it is obvious who the actual bad actors are here (very very very sleazy guys and their websites). The poor judgement involved should at least be acknowledged because women are not infants. Letting anyone get nudes of you or whatever in the era of the internet if you want any kind of control over where they wind up is a very bad idea. Maximum dumb.

If it happened in 2000-2005 you could certainly plead naivete convincingly, especially with the "internet" still in the process of taking over the world. But nowadays...everyone, male or female, should know better. Don't take nudes et al they will wind up on the internet in the worst imaginable context. This should be not just common knowledge but universal wisdom at this point.

What are you thinking about right now?

I am wondering if I will ever finish a video game again before I die. Which hopefully won't be any time soon if you were wondering. But still. Seems real doubtful.

Clarification: Making one. Not playing one.

The Last King of Hyrule

this does not have a downlaod - bug or feature?

TwoHour, coming to an IRC near you!

aw heck, I already missed it

(oh well, these things kind of always gave me panic attacks anyway lol)

The official English 2k3 version is out!

This is the most baffling timing of anything that has ever happened in human history.

They decide to support an official English version more than a decade into the engine's nominal obsolescence?

I'm not even complaining or anything just...what the actual fuck. Maximum inscrutability.

The "new" RM2k3 engine

Wait, wait, wait, the official English whatnow whahuh what the what huh?

I don't think so, at least not soon - as far as I know, everyone involved is either busy with other projects or AWOL.

Sorry :/ I guess you could say this project has a Bleak Future.
Worst-case scenario, I have a future project that the tilesets I made for this would be perfect for, so if this doesn't get made, and the others don't mind, the tilesets will at least live on ^^;;


Broadly speaking, I am available to work on this, so youse guys know. If you're similarly motivated, I mean.
