If you want a good modern example of a dev rejecting AI, look at Platypus Reclayed. A game that was lovingly and painstakingly recreated with higher quality claymation techniques And the game looks amazing because of it. AND IT'S ONLY $15 ($11.50 now since sales are going on now)

It feels so good to have a gaming console of my own, hooked up to the TV in all it's beautiful glory! It feels like it's been so long since I last played a console hooked up to a TV and it's filling a special kind of void in my life that had been empty for a while. I feel so much more at peace now 🩷

On the one hand, I get it. Especially since the PS2 library is massive and has a ton of games to keep you coming back to it. But on the other, it's good to broaden horizons to not only other Retro platforms, but there is still a wealth of modern games that don't use GenAI. Games are a vast medium

Transfolks don’t deserve to be mistreated like crap the way they do and instead deserve to have happy and health lives. I feel awful for them especially to the ones I am friends with all over the world.

Sending my heart out to my trans friends and followers today. You are seen and you are loved.

As soon as that Mega Man contest ends I think I should close my twitter account for good, or at least delete all my posts

Jesus, this is way worse than I thought - they want to just remove Section 230 entirely, not limit it. This would make websites legally liable for all user-generated content, which would effectively force most such sites to close down, or require all content to be pre-approved.

As I tell other game translators, the reason I tend to be pretty comfortable even on big projects is when I'm working, translation is purely a process that takes place between me and the game. That it gets packaged in a box later is just a byproduct and genuinely doesn't enter my mind day-to-day.

- Daisuke Amaya (Cave Story, 2004) - Derek Yu (Eternal Daughter, 2002) - The Behemoth (Alien Hominid, 2002) - Jun'ya "ZUN" Ōta (Touhou Project, 1997) - the numerous shareware devs in the 1990s All devs I'd sooner call "the father of indie gaming" over Jonathan Blow.

There is no overstating how bad repealing Section 230 would be for the Internet. If you are a US citizen and have ever enjoyed one of our games, or any other piece of queer or "controversial" media, then please consider contacting your representatives and encouraging them to not support this.

It goes far beyond just games and media, and would affect anyone posting anything at all. If your senator is one of the ones in the attached image, it's especially important that you make your voice heard. It can be scary, but it makes a difference.

Everyone else go home — this is the year we secure ABOLISH ICE on a Chicago Snowplow chicagoshovels.org

Another game to avoid on my list of games to avoid. They just make it easier and easier without even trying.

In the year 2525, if man is still alive If woman can survive, they may find JONATHAN BLOW IS NOT THE FATHER OF SHIT.

Show me a hot person with a gun again

I still feel Kyle Ren is a very stupid name of a villain. Before anyone tell me why he called that, I am aware of the reason. It does not make it any less of a stupid name. This is also a new hope rehashed. Still not the worst Star Wars film, but it is close to it.

Anyone who supports this is an embarrassment. "Instead of typing it out they'll generate their idea"? Are you insane? Call yourself whatever you want but you aren't creatives, that's for sure.

If we are banning cell phones for kids we need to be talking about banning chatbots for boomers www.persuasion.community/p/my-chatgpt...

Remember when Druckmann swore that the horrible crunch on TLOU2's development was more on those higher-up on the corpo ladder than him and how he promised he'd make sure it wouldn't happen again? Lol. Lmao even.

Naughty Dog more like Shitty Dog

Sassy.

Wishing everyone at Naughty Dog a very Merry Unionize Right The Fuck Now Holy Shit

Bro Neil Druckman needs to go They need to get rid of that bitch

Sounds eerily similar to Anthem..

Your daily reminder that Naughty Dog is still a shit developer and hasn’t changed their work ethic

fuck this company, fuck this advertisement bullshit of a game, but most of all fuck you druckmann you absolute hack of a human being

Remember how TLOU2 broke the studio and drove away a lot of core talent? I saw so many ex-Naughty Dogs floating around that time, and some friends worked their weird part time artist positions they scraped together to try and finish it. Did leadership learn nothing, or just the wrong lesson?

Gamers should be furious about this, honestly. We had the "crunch is bad" discussion years ago. Studios already know gamers don't want to play games that rely on this. They're doing it anyways. You should be as mad about this as you are about AI use, if not more.

Some people hate Naughty Dog because they're "woke". I hate Naughty Dog because they overwork their employees, we are not the same.

There should be no crunching. And if there is, it should not be mandatory, and if they are, the staff better be paid, and even then, WHERE ARE THE LABOUR LAWS?!🤦😫

Good to know Naughty Dog is still an awful workplace with Druckman at the helm. Competent leadership at Sony would’ve canned him a while ago for this poor of project management. The class fuck up, move up career path

This is activating my "this game won't be good" radar

I am really tired of games being made with crunch or worker mistreatment! All that is doing is turning me off the game. This should not be the norm at all in the game industry. The sad part is folks will defend this terrible practice. Naughty Dog at this point is a shadow of their formal self.

So another game made with Crunch in the end. Another game that even if I had any interest in is now gone.

Hi this is the OFFICIAL STANCE OF THE HHS words cannot describe how rough 2026 is going to be for trans folks and how much we are going to need your support

Any Democrat who thinks it's appropriate to "find common ground" with the Republicans on issues like high school sports teams is negotiating with a political party that does not believe trans people should exist. This policy will kill people, so maybe stop wringing your hands about volleyball.

My games have arrived!

Don’t let CEOs quibble over how much they’re pushing for AI. Regurgitative AI is a plagiaristic poison, to use any amount of it is to use it too much. They want the concessions, because concessions can creep. Zero tolerance is the only way to say no to it.

@ivyisnerdy.craves.coffee Good morning Ivy!

JUSTICE FOR JAR JAR BINKS

Good night everyone!

So I posted a new Lucky Star fanfic on my AO3. It is a Minami x Yutaka wholesome 18+. I will share the link to those that want to. archive.transformativeworks.org/works/75950746

it is terrifying and awful that this passed the House with any Dem support at all (and once again, the continued leadership support for Cuellar is unconscionable) call your senators and make absolutely sure this dies in the Senate, lives are on the line trans people deserve so much better

Man, early 4Kids Pokemon had so much sass

Once someone has completed the lawful process of naturalization, sworn an oath to the United States, and waved their miniature American flag 🇺🇸 in front of their friends, family, and an authorized administrator of the oath, that's it. You can't take citizenship away from people. They're Americans.
