Final Fantasy XVI producer Naoki Yoshida has sparked a discussion over the term JRPG, and how it makes certain Japanese developers uncomfortable due to its history of negativity.
As someone currently on an RPG kick, I'm finding the debate pretty fascinating. As the corn in the basement cries, let's discuss the term JRPG!

Hello patrons!
It’s been quite some time since I wrote an update blog about your second best Trashgirl’s various doings. For the most part, there’s not a massive amount of exciting stuff going on in my neck of the dumpster. I’m mostly ticking along, been doing some videos I’m super proud of, wrestling is going tremendously. All told, not bad.
That said, there’s one major...

AI generated art is all the rage right now, but have you noticed it's been sold with the same techbro evangelicalism that tried to shove NFTs down our throats? I'm hardly surprised, as both of these grifts have the same endgame - cutting artists out of the commercialization of art.
Let's look at AI art, the people pushing it, and the moves to sell creativity without paying creators....

I've really wanted to talk about this bizarre thing. On the surface, it's a somewhat mundane hack n' slash shooter. Once you dig into it, however, you get a truly eccentric entry into the "good bad" category of games. Just a shame about the weird balancing... and the price.

J.K. Rowling is a transphobe who uses the success of Harry Potter to claim her vile views are justified. Hogwarts Legacy is a game that supports and benefits her, and as a trans person I really need to talk about that, the trolls rallying around it, and the "allies" who sold us out for the sake of a media product.
For most people, it'll always be "just a game." For those of us threa...

This past week saw a whole pile of live services - including Rumbleverse - shut their doors. This follows Square Enix closing a whole bunch of similar games, and the overall trend of "games-as-a-service" falling apart.
Who called it? This girl called it!

A brand new show comes to the Jimquisition Podcast Outlet! Our lovely Trashgirls Stephanie and Elsa try to stick to the script as they discuss everything around the topic they set out to discuss. Collector's editions, sausage boxing, Dragon Age, and the beloved Stranger of Paradise hat... what more could you want?

The tech industry is seeing massive layoffs, with Microsoft alone jettisoning 10,000 people in the face of slow growth. The key word there is "growth." Microsoft isn't losing money, but people are losing jobs because it ain't making money fast enough. This is supposed to be reasonable
It's high time the nonsensical lie corporations operate under was challenged openly.

Marvel's Avengers is finally closing its doors after failing to make waves as one of Square Enix's many "live service" games. Let's look back over the broken promises, financial losses, and assorted failings of Crystal Dynamics' busted cash cow.

I had a ton of requests to cover this one. While not strictly videogame related, the situation with Wizards of the Coast and Dungeons & Dragons is a perfect example of everything this show talks about. So let's talk about how Wizards and Hasbro tried to become some D&D landlords.

Yes, we have to talk about Square Enix again. They shut down ANOTHER game after just 13 months, and their scummy president has doubled down on NFT and crypto horribleness. Also, I have a Godzilla pinball table.

Choo Choo Charles isn't a joke game, but nothing would have changed if it was. God, I really want to be in love with this game. The concept is beautifully silly, but it demonstrates how games need to be more than one good idea to be actually good.

I'd like to report a murder. Or maybe it's a mercy killing. Either way, when it comes to Square Enix and so-called "live services," there's a lot of death going around. God, Square Enix sucks.
