Jurassic World : Rebirth does not star Chris Pratt

“AI is clearly sticking around so you have to get used to it” wrong. I don’t have to get used to shit. I am a practiced hater and I can keep this going for decades if I am required to

This is kinda cool but I suspect it's gonna cause issues down the line

"i would have simply made a work that didn't trigger the invisible hand of an anonymous valve employee with a highly specific unknowable beef" "and if i did, i would throw away that project and start anew, confident somehow that this new project would not suffer the same fate"

They're called managers because they tell you to manage without support or resources.

If you're a writer on deadline to write a food vendor and it feels boring or unimportant, that's when you put on your Big Game Writer Pants and make the food vendor's dialogue a sneaky reference to the Chicks' "Goodbye, Earl," LIKE A PROFESSIONAL.

International Criminal Court judge, "sanctioned" by the USA for doing his job, blocked from using internet services worldwide, credit cards, banking... And nobody cares...

The Game Awards are not the Oscars of video games. The Oscars miss constantly but at least they are a bona fide attempt by an industry to legitimize and promote itself; TGA is not that, it's just ads for individual products masquerading as an awards show run by one guy's particular preferences.

(spending 9 billion dollars to make a robot say "i have always loved you") hard times create strong men

steam is apparently allowing "this game had AI in it that it didn't disclose" as a valid return statement, so if you or anyone you know actually paid $70 for slop, get that money back

I'm seeing variants of "ah but today's gamers just don't have attention spans so we sort of have to-" rolled out earnestly so No. You can let those players fail. The AAA conception of handholding is silly. There's huge genres that don't do it. You just have a bad manager making you do dumb things.

Compatibility with accessible controllers & control remapping Options to disable individual UI elements Custom difficulty settings Also, lesbians.

perhaps the most egregious thing that happened with the Future Class was when The Game Awards took money from Old Spice in the name of the FC & simply... pocketed it it wasn't used to fund Future Class initiatives, it wasn't used to help lift marginalised developers they just profited from us

This is the most ridiculous thing I've seen since that Crypto Island video

One of the most important jobs of a designer is understanding that there are some things that everyone says they want, but then absolutely hate if they get it

Absolutely not.

Finally watching SNW s03 finale. Geez. If I wanted a sanitized conservative Dr Who timey-wimey nonsense with a dash of queerbaiting, I'd just call Steven Moffat

The 2025 internet very much has a single point of failure

We believe knowledge grows through sharing. Together with friends at Midwest Games, Fireshine, Gaijin, and 11Bit Studios, we created GameDev Learning Drop—a free directory of 350+ resources for devs, who dream of creating worlds! Let's rise together! owlcat.games/learning

La France, c'est le pays qui célèbre chaque année une insurrection populaire mais qui crie à l'ensauvagement dès qu'une poubelle flambe, et dont la BD la plus célèbre parle d'un village qui résiste à une occupation coloniale impérialiste, sans parvenir à regarder son propre système oppressif en face

Can't find the backup

As BlueSky moderation cranks up, I'm genuinely surprised to see so many users diss on Mastodon. "It's like leaving your account to the whim of an unbridled Reddit admin with no accountability," I read. Okay. Not wrong.

Fact : Lecornu a tenu moins longtemps que Concord.

Je pensais pas qu'en France on avait un tel niveau de speedrun

People have always haunted me with me: "Hey Keano, when is your amazing Skyrim expansion named Lordbound coming out?" How about today? LORDBOUND IS OUT NOW! A Skyrim expansion 11 years in the making: 🌲60+ HOURS OF ADVENTURING 🏰 50 DUNGEONS ❓ 40 QUESTS www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecia...

Buyers: So your games... guns and football, yes? EA: Mmhmm, mmhmm, mostly guns and football, yep. Buyers: No gay stuff? No politics we're not going to like? EA: Haha, definitely not! Hey, could you give me one sec? I just need to shut down a studio real quick. kotaku.com/report-saudi...

I have such good news for executives and industry leaders - it is incredibly easy for *you*, specifically, to put a stop to this. Tell these bad-faith harassers no. Loudly and publicly support your employees & industry colleagues. Shut this shit down once and for all to protect the future of games.

The 60 hour Skyrim quest mod we started over a decade ago is actually releasing next week 😍 It's 1/3rd of Skyrim in size and bigger than all the DLCs combined 💪 www.moddb.com/mods/lordbou...

i think this picture, from a public promo stream for a video games starring one of the most popular comic book characters of all time owned by the disney corporation, should be used on every single story about storefronts taking down lgbt content

Mirri's face this morning when I stopped petting her and said I had to go to work 😭😭

Somehow this is Geoff Keighley's fault I just can't prove it yet.

Waiting for your girlfriend to take a short break to reorganize her entire inventory, sort consumables by type and use in separate pouches, then arrange her radial menus for convenience in a comprehensive and ergonomic fashion is Normal and LOVING behavior.

‪"Je sais qu'on va probablement avoir aussi mauvais voire pire après lui, mais je me régale quand même de cet enterrement symbolique de Bayrou aujourd'hui. Quand sa voiture s'éloignera ce soir je propose qu'on tire une fleche enflammée dessus, façon funérailles viking."

We're in an era of unprecedented automation and productivity. Mathematically speaking we have more than enough for everyone. Somehow we still have to work 9-to-5 shifts making shit nobody needs and is actively killing the world, all so Jeff Bezos and his cronies can play for Wall Street high score.

Congratulations to everyone on the list!! Remember to screenshot every nasty message addressed to you or your team and more importantly, keep up the good work. Fuck fascists.

Controversial opinion, but I think trans people should feel safe here on bluesky, and nazis shouldn't.

Was reminded of this interaction i had with a commission scammer 2 years ago where they were pretending they could make custom 3D models

Happy to report we are now content complete and voice recordings have started! 🥳🍕 Legacy of Orsinium now adds new quests to ALL Orc strongholds in #Skyrim, including some previously cut and unrealised content 🙌 #SkyrimMods #ElderScrolls

All of this. *All* of it. Whenever someone deigns to defend the machine to you, send them this. "They want to build a genie to grant them wishes, and their wish is that nobody ever has to make art again. They want to create a new kind of mind, so they can force it into mindless servitude."

lord I have seen what you've done for others

Can't believe Hornet's first kill is going to be the AI bubble.
