I would give up every positive quality I have in exchange for that.

I’m confused. Are you running out of games to play? Do you only play on console or something?

I’d assume “FEX” in the last tweet in the OP is referring to this: https://github.com/FEX-Emu/FEX

Not as many as I’ve had with knowing. Piece of shit never works right.

Very interesting. Does story come into it at all for you? Audio?

Sometimes it feels like video games are actually ten different mediums that we lump together for no real reason.

I’m not even a person.

Telltale’s The Walking Dead games. Made me cry more than when my dog died.

there’s no fair use/dealings defence of them.

The OTW, who run AO3, would disagree with you: https://www.transformativeworks.org/faq/#faq-WhydoestheOTWbelievethattransformativeworksarelegal

That said, I’m not sure why they say ‘transformative works are legal’ rather than ‘transformative works are sometimes legal and we believe noncommercial, transformative fanworks are legal but no one has actually tested it in court and it’s unspecified in the legislation’.
