Games media continuing to cover Call of Duty uncritically like any other franchise, while ignoring its substantial role in the rise of Western authoritarianism is one of the greatest morale failings in an industry with morale standards best described as "When they are convenient to have." Anyway...

Hey hey us lot at @thegamerweb.bsky.social have some cool stuff planned for Dragon Age 2's fifteenth (!) birthday this Sunday! Be sure to check that out!

I hate it when people waste their vote on a fringe party with no chance of winning like labour

very insane that a game goes from final announcement at the biggest gaming event to shut down forever in a few months now

A couple of weeks ago, I had the honor of interviewing Nick Apostolides (Leon) and Angela Sant’Albano (Grace). Two very cool humans and two great interviews. Give them a read! www.thegamer.com/resident-evi... www.thegamer.com/resident-evi...

The amount of Western people you can find telling Iranians to not feel any possible emotion they might be having right now, yes they can be devastated, happy, angry, sad, furious, terrified - they have a right to all these and more: their oppressor seems murdered by the hands of their oppressors.

Fuck Israel and fuck the US

ginger now

I'm a big fan of Resident Evil: Requiem but it can feel disjointed, and it's never quite as good as the two games it takes the most inspiration from. My review for VGC: www.videogameschronicle.com/review/resid...

Sources tell me Xbox is stable Please god

It is really funny how Xbox will break up its decade of humiliation with a couple of games on the horizon that makes you go "huh? that's neat!" before then shitting itself. every single time.

I was about to say how Phil Spencer could not leave a worse legacy behind, but I reckon his successor is going to have a good crack at it

I found out about the arrest because my mum text me basically saying this

Andrew finally being arrested has put another spotlight on the fact that royal correspondents are not fit for purpose. They are NOT journalists. They are paid sycophants who try to convince us to be good little serfs. It is more akin to LARPing than any actual journalism.

Joe is the card boy of all time. No one has been able to explain TCG stuff to me as well as him, and his work for TheGamer was fantastic. Everyone check this out!!!

I'm launching a site! Booster Pack is an independently run and community-funded site dedicated to TCGs like Magic: The Gathering, Pokemon, Lorcana, and Yu-Gi-Oh! Been working on this for a while, and I'm excited to finally be showing it off! www.boosterpack.site @boosterpacksite.bsky.social

Technically poor and hurried, devoid of the original's charm, and full of filler content and baffling changes, Yakuza Kiwami 3 is a 20/100, a 2/10, a one-star game. It's a seismic miss that left me questioning my love for the series. My review: www.gamerguides.com/yakuza-kiwam...

Doin birthday pints after staying up I told 5am watching the entirety of Sweetpea for Ella Purnell. Happy 27 to me 🎉

What is up with this series' running track record of weirdly cursed adaptations

I didn’t know BG3 was a solo dev game!

It really sucks how the reward for being recognised as a good game is an adaptation in a medium that does not suit the story or characters at all. BG3 is a deeply personal story. Better off making another d&d story with new characters deadline.com/2026/02/bald...

I need to stop seeing the UK get any praise for this - we should have locked him up ten times over. We already knew he was a rapist and he was still a prince until a few months ago.

packing to move house

the one and only @susanapolo.bsky.social wrote about dragon age and the way it handles player choice and it's SO GOOD y'all it's SO GOOD www.mothership.blog/dragon-age-g...

BG3 won every award ever (I happily voted for it!) but Swen has not really engaged with any criticism of it to my knowledge, particularly in the utter disregard of Wyll. And it's only gotten worse since the AI debacle. Not great going into Divinity!!!

my cutes in a garden

Yuri Lowenthal shares message speaking out against ICE

listen, not say that art from problematic people can't have value or be analysed, but i gotta say if you are giving this dipshit money or advertising space in a showcase in 2026, you can eat shit

Wait so......... 1348 Ex Voto???? Lesbian knight????? I am just hearing of this

never forget who had your back when times were rough

EVERYONE IS POSTING FABLE I'M SCARED

Prince of Persia Remake cancelled for AI slop btw

Oh! Another one from the amazing Jennifer Hale. Full interview coming, I swear www.thegamer.com/jennifer-hal...

One billion awards to whoever made the lighting in BG3 act 2 so gorg

Spoke to Tribute Games about Scott Pilgrim EX for @gamesradarplus.bsky.social's Big in 2026 features. The original ignited my love of beat 'em ups and revived the genre, so very excited to see where this one takes it www.gamesradar.com/games/action...

Words on Roblox, and how its constant need for growth might be the real issue when it comes to child safety, not a lack of parental controls (and in fact, the latest age verification update has likely made things much worse) www.thegamer.com/roblox-lawsu...

Felt inspired by that isometric Fallout 4 post going around

🎉Happy new year!🎉I hope 2026 sucks less 💚

Happy New Year! We got smashed @tjmulli.bsky.social

Hellllooo I had a lovely chat with Devora Wilde bout "mean women" and Lae'zel being gay (and Solasta 2 and Clair Obscur: Expedition 33!) www.thegamer.com/devora-wilde...

I won't have my interview with Jennifer Hale ready until the new year I reckon, but here's something we spoke about! Of course, it's Dragon Age. More specifically, how she feels about Krem more than a decade on www.thegamer.com/jennifer-hal...

Me and Alix Wilton Regan have been planning to chat Perfect Dark for a while now. We finally managed that yesterday. Sounds like, as you might expect, it wasn’t handled too well. www.thegamer.com/joanna-dark-...

You DO NOT need to AI generate concepts!!! I have commissioned artists before with nothing but a scribble and a prayer and I have received masterpieces
