Adesso esco per strada e urlo

less than two months after release, highguard is shutting down. the usual suspects are chalking up its demise to culture war nonsense when the truth is more mundane: mismanagement sank another project. the video game industry punishes success and failure alike, but hubris most of all

Grazie Gianni! 🙏

I've been thinking about writing something in English for quite some time now... so here we are! Unwinnable is one of my favorite outlets: it feels great to see this little thing up there.

(PS: Jesse Makkonen truly exceeded my expectations with this one)

The Player as an Unwanted Guest - Unwinnable Without a Dawn made me believe that I was the one in control.

Era da un bel po' che pensavo di scrivere un pezzo in inglese... ed eccoci qui! @unwinnable.com è uno dei miei portali di riferimento e devo ammettere che è bello vedere questo piccolo pezzo ospitato in quei lidi.
(PS:@jessemakkonen.com ha davvero superato le mie aspettative)

Quando il cozy diventa dark: l’esempio di Dredge L’orrore può essere amplificato dalla quiete apparente.

Recupero finalmente questo pezzo di @psycholudens.bsky.social. L'estetica, mista alla tensione creata dalla possibilità dell'imprevisto, mi hanno ricordato certe traversate in solitaria in Sea of Thieves - dove certo l'elemento horror è ancora più cartoonesco, ma non manca di creare tensione.

Me stesso, 12 mesi fa, quando i miei amici mi hanno proposto di cominciare a giocare Commander:
"Ma sì, partiamo con un precon innocuo, cosa mai potrà andare storto"

The future of indie games I've followed Alice Ruppert on social media for a while now. She runs a good website focused on horse games. I'm not a horse girl! I mean horses are fine, but they're not something I'm mega into. But ...

Ripropongo anche qui un pezzo di qualche settimana fa, di @v21.bsky.social , perché è una riflessione che (come le polemiche all'indomani dei *ufffff* GOTY ricordano) rimane sempre attuale.

That was a (sad but) good read, thanks! It's incredibile how Wilds has created possibly the best virtual space in the series' history just to absolutely forget how to use it right after the end credits.

Oggi vorrei invece consigliare questo pezzo di @vitagiocata.bsky.social, apparso su @ludicamag.com: ha ravvivato l'immagine che ho in testa di Berlino, visitata ormai qualche anno fa. Una città strana, in continuo divenire: quanto è azzeccata la citazione di Hessel!

Recupero un interessantissimo pezzo di @ashlikeadragon.bsky.social. Osservare da lontano SF6 è, in effetti, un'esperienza strana. È come stare sul bordo di una strada di periferia a poco a poco erosa da un enorme, scintillante, anonimo centro commerciale.
