I think the most important lesson that no major studio is going to learn from Iron Lung is that if you're going to adapt a video game to another medium you have to love it.

There is no substitute for passion. If you do not love the source material there is no amount of budget that you can throw at the project that will give it a soul. You have to love it. If you don't love it you've lost before you've even begun, you cannot conceal the lack of soul with any amount of money.

There is no substitute for passion, you have to love it.

tbh im not entirely immune to a villain with a tragic backstory but i do think villain origins are a lot more interesting when the focus is less "here is the original sin, the first big bad thing that happened to them that made them who they are" and more "here is the first time a person who maybe otherwise felt powerless in their life realized that they could hurt someone and get away with it"

[dateamonster]

you can get a lot more mileage out of analyzing a truly abhorrent character through the lens of like. what sort of conditions would allow or even incentivize this kind of cruelty? what kind of person benefits from those conditions and how? over the more typical who hurt them type analysis. imo.

"my fucking balls" is the first thing I've seen about Silksong since the game came out and now I'm even less sure I know what that game is about

Here is a handy diagram that explains what the game is about:

Fifty ships and forty-four countries will participate in the steadfastness flotilla to break the siege on Gaza. Many prominent figures and large demonstrations bid farewell to the great activists, and everyone is chanting for this flotilla. What have you done? Donate here to Sami's family who are living the woes in Gaza, or share the post, or donate just 10 euros. Anything can make a big difference.

Y'all ever think about the way video game bosses are designed to lose? How the bombastic soundtracks, the impressive displays of villainy, the teeth-rattling power of their attacks, are at once engineered not just to sell you on how unfathomably strong and vile they are, but also to make the player's inevitable victory all the sweeter?

Viewed this way, a boss battle is more like a choreographed dance - they call, you respond and counter-call. The trick is to learn the steps - once you know where to move, when to strike, when to defend and how to best allocate your resources, victory is not just achievable but actually almost impossible to avoid. You cannot help but recite the winning plays, over and again, because that is what the dance demands of you both - and is there not a savage sort of beauty in such a thing?

Is it any wonder then that we look back on these bosses so fondly, almost as if they were old friends? We danced together once, and oh what fun we had while doing it!
