There is a sub genre of mobile game ads on YouTube that are about getting revenge on the girl who broke your heart and the jerk who won her over

My favorite mobile game ads continue to be the lava/water/gold puzzles that like 10 different games advertise (and I'm pretty sure none of them actually have that gameplay)

Watching trailers for things I might like or watching a gaming press conference is hardly the same as being forced to watch the first 10 seconds of a PragerU video or getting earblasted by cartoon mobile game characters abusing their spouses or whatever.

Whizzing Wizard posted:Discovered that I had Killer is Dead, probably from a humble bundle or something. That game certainly has a … vibe. Think I might continue playing it, does not seem to be overly long either. Get to the first dream sequence fight, and if you like it keep going. The ending rules

YouTube mobile also has the "stories" feature which is only accessible on the phone. If you wanted to know more about the "simp wars" between IGN and gamespot it's only there

Mobile youtube is a nightmare. Youtube's algorithm has gotten so incredibly lovely in the last couple of years it's insane. Just pages of poo poo I've already seen and weird poo poo I would never watch.

YouTube Vanced is an off-store version of the YouTube Mobile app that blocks all ads and lets you lock your screen without pausing the audio. It's good stuff.

It's remarkable how much these big websites are intentionally making themselves terrible. Like when you search for a specific movie or book on Amazon and the first two results are ads for ebooks in the same genre as what you searched for and the next three results are for streaming videos whose title includes a word that's a synonym for one of the words in the title you searched for

So back in 2018 a cocktail book called Cocktail Codex was released that posits that there are actually only 6 "root" cocktails - the old fashioned, the martini, the daiquiri, the sidecar, the whiskey highball, the flip. All other modern cocktails are evolutions and variations stemming from one of those six roots. And while it doesn't really cover pre-Prohibition mixed drinks I think it's otherwise pretty spot on. This got me thinking, what do people think the root gaming genres would be? As with any discussion of genre there's a heavy amount of subjectivity to this and I think you'll end up with wildly different categories depending on where and how you draw the line, but from thinking about it very casually I think I'd identify as my starting point four root genres. Action - Skill based, reflex oriented games e.g Spacewar!, Asteroids, Pac Man, Space Invaders. Spawns roughly fifty million subgenres. Maze games, platformers, shmups, beat em ups etc. Adventure - Narrative focused exploratory games. Colossal Cave Adventure leading to text adventures/IF and later graphical adventures. Adventure game elements added to wargames gives us role-playing games, much like narrative elements added to pen and paper wargames got us D&D in the real world. Adventure and Action eventually combined into the Action/Adventure genre, the titanic juggernaut that now feels like it comprises a big swath of AAA gaming. Puzzle - The player tries to solve a problem presented by the game using their wits, starting with adaptations of pen and paper thinking games like Tic Tac Toe and Hangman, leading to things like Sokoban games, Tetris, Pipe Dream etc. Simulation - Simulations of (predominantly) real-world experiences in videogame form. Early wargames and strategy games like The Sumerian Game, as well as sports simulations like Tennis for Two and Pong. Spawns the RTS, Sports and Racing genres. I'd need to sit down and do a bunch more research in order to flesh this out properly but I'd say these four root genres can account for just about any other genre by blending between them. It'd be a fun project to see someone map a theory like this out tracing the descent of genres over time, and I'm sure everyone would endlessly argue over it for all eternity much like, say, subgenres of Metal.
