MFW I get to the part of any Marathon lore recap when they have to be like “and then the aliens told Bill Clinton to plant a nuke”

a lifted gmc whatever the fuck truck adorned in a palestine vinyl wrap and flags and such. hello kitty. things of that nature

while visiting a friend i witnessed this truck. the back read "REDNECKS SUPPORT PALESTINE" and the israel flag has a big red cancel with "FUCK ZIONISM" under it. incredible.

one of the simple pleasures in life is saying 'wow it looks like silent hill out there' when it's really foggy

Marathon's world building is like if you made the commercials from the start of MGS4 the whole game.

I was standing at my local Döner shop here in Berlin the other day, waiting for my order, when it hit me: A Döner (plus a Coke) costs roughly what Tackle for Loss does here in Euro. That felt right for Berlin. But it made me wonder: Is that "Döner-Equity" the same everywhere else? I started chatting with players from all over the world, and it turns out that Valve’s default currency conversion doesn't feel fair in my opinion. I don't want the game to be a luxury investment. So, I’ve manually adjusted the prices to make things more fair: For my players in Turkey and the Middle East: I’ve reduced the price by 36%. It should now cost about the same as a solid chicken kebab, and yeah, I’m talking the luxury version with extra sauce and a coke. In Eastern Europe and CIS countries (like Ukraine or Kazakhstan): Prices are down by 32%. Across Latin America: You’ll see a price drop of about 28%. In South Asia (including India and Pakistan): I've reduced it by 23%. A huge thank you to everyone who helped me figure this out. Admittedly I’ve made some of these calls based on gut feeling, so if your local experience tells you something else, hit me up and share your perspective. Daniel

Casey Edwards ™M @ComposerCasey Follow ... NOTHING SPECIAL?! I think the phone call went more like "as you know Vergil is an extremely important and beloved character of this franchise. He needs a song to match." Me: **sweat nightmares and pulling my hair out for weeks** Kubilay @resonmon • May 29, 2021 @ComposerCasey Capcom: We need you to make another song for another character. It doesn't have to be anything special. Casey Edwards: Gotcha! Casey Edwards: Bury the Light

Every time I see those stupid “it’s just a silly game the song didn’t need to go that hard” memes I’m always reminded of Casey Edwards describing making Bury the Light for Devil May Cry 5

I got reminded of this post I made a few years ago.

this was an idle joke a year ago but what with current events and so on i think there is now a legitimate chance that by the time this game releases whatever world it is satirizing will be so dead its genre might as well be fantasy
