LIVE for Capcom & Bandai Namco! (also my internet is fixed lol yay) twitch.tv/charalanahzard

hotline miami soundtrack that is all

A great analysis about the current situation. Playing games anywhere is ideal, but the miscommunication of "This Is An Xbox" marked change for the status quo. Cloud gaming has been growing and somewhat improving over the last few years. It makes sense for Xbox and other companies to pursue this path

so this is a blatant lie

A video worth your time to check out from @charalanahzard.bsky.social, as its a more objective piece about the changes happening in Xbox's leadership and the road ahead. A far better examination than most of the coverage that comes off as doom-projecting. #Xbox

This is an excellent overview from @charalanahzard.bsky.social on what's going on with Xbox and the ramifications of what means for the gaming industry and consoles. There's a lot packed in to just over 15 minutes here.

This is the smartest analysis of the Xbox news I've seen.

This change at Xbox didn’t happen because Xbox is dead, or failing, or because it’s ‘losing’ to PlayStation and Nintendo. I also don’t believe Asha Sharma was hired to ‘sunset’ the brand in any way (that one doesn’t make any sense to me at all!). Let’s talk about it: youtu.be/AXf66oSSwHU

I wish I could come up with a compelling counter-argument here, but no. @charalanahzard.bsky.social is right, as usual. It's the end of consoles as we know them (and I don't feel fine). www.youtube.com/watch?v=AXf6...

@richtomorrow81.bsky.social Amongst all of the discourse surrounding this recent news regarding leadership changes at Xbox, this analysis from @charalanahzard.bsky.social is especially relevant and adds much-needed necessary context. youtu.be/AXf66oSSwHU?...

We’re going live 1 PM CT Friday for a fireside chat with host @charalanahzard.bsky.social joined by CEOwl @buddingmonkey.bsky.social and team. Join us as we dive deeper into the vision, the journey, and ultimately the impact of VR game development here at Owlchemy Labs. 🔗👉 twitch.tv/charalanahzard

There are many things players say they care about that they don’t - like ludonarrative dissonance. It’s fun to criticize a game for having a kind protagonist… who is also a mass murderer. That does not mean players *actually* want to shoot less, or want asshole characters. (Anyway good read!!!)

This video took me a whole ass month (on and off) to make, so hey, thank you so much for watching it!

I remember @charalanahzard.bsky.social 's reaction to THAT moment in AW2 saying that we needed to protect Remedy at all cost... Can't help but thinking that we failed 😞

I'm a bit behind on this video but @charalanahzard.bsky.social is putting the dumpster fire that is our economy in such simple terms that even tho she's preaching to the choir, it's still just as confounding that this is the world we live in. youtu.be/ifyaI4TOsDM?...

If it seems like the AI technology being pushed onto you is not serving any purpose, you would be right!

Babe, wake up. Alanah posted another banger.

This is a great breakdown of the coming AI bubble bursting. Or how all of the money is just feeding all this debt upon debt. It’s just crazy. Great work @charalanahzard.bsky.social

It's not even midnight and we're already at "Deport Elmo."

This one will help you explain the next recession to your dad.

Watched the whole thing and it's so worth it. We need people willing to brutally honest about this.

Alanah @charalanahzard.bsky.social coming in hot again tirelessly and in terms most will understand talking about the biggest scammers fucking us all. Doing gods work here... if god was real... and so on...

Another brilliant video from the amazing @charalanahzard.bsky.social on why these AI losers are going to ruin us all... youtu.be/ifyaI4TOsDM?...

Introducing the “AI-BOROS”: the few companies at the ‘top’ of the economy handing each other billions of (debt-ridden) dollars for a product that both doesn’t exist AND doesn’t make any money. and we ALL get to go broke when it inevitably implodes ha ha i love it here!!! youtu.be/ifyaI4TOsDM?...

“our stories are good enough for TV but the writers aren’t?” 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Mistress of Hell #dispatch #art

Honoured to play ‘A Familiar Voice’ 😌 in IRON LUNG! The biggest congratulations to Mark & Amy for this absolutely Herculean effort - the success could not be more deserved. Here’s to many more such (very indie, very human made, very passion-fueled) successes ❤️🔥.

holy fuck hahahahahaha

🫡❤️🩸🩸🩸

can’t believe i forgot to share this: It was an honour to present Most Anticipated Venturr Capital Take-Over at last year’s @hard-drive.net awards!

When they ask you what you did to stop all of this in 20 years time, what will you be able to say?

@xbox.com I’M STILL AVAILABLE

There’s a video game announcement coming some time this year that I have not seen anyone even remotely touch on/guess/theorize about, and I think people are going to absolutely lose their minds. I have nothing to do with it, but am genuinely excited for it to be announced just to see the reactions.

A few people have come at me for “still paying to subscribe to X” even after making this video, since I’m still verified on there. It seems a lot of people didn’t know this: Twitter ‘gifted’ verification to a number of people, even after making a big deal out of verification being FOR THE PEOPLE.

HORSES was nominated for the Grand Prize and Nuovo Award at the 2026 Independent Games Festival! What a great opportunity to give shoutouts to the incredible talent that made this production possible. Check out the following posts to find out who they are, and what else they worked on! Thread:

Officially into our SEVENTH YEAR of Play, Watch, Listen 💜! A huge thank you to everyone who listens to this show, which is very much just a regular conversation between @mikebithell.bsky.social @awintory.bsky.social & I, where the middle part just happens to be recorded.

I wrote about my experiences being sexually exploited as a child, and what we need to do to make sure AI doesn’t make that a reality for millions of children. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

permanently side-eyeing anyone who still uses the Nazi + CP + non-con porn website

New rare opportunity at work has opened up. Come work with us on the gaming teams in this sweet new role (did I mention it's remote?) Any questions holla at me! wrkbl.ink/iL6cxuS

This is very good from @charalanahzard.bsky.social on X and how media have been reluctant to cover it. Mind boggling to me that the British government, MPs, councils,etc, still use the platform. Putting out policy announcements sandwiched between non-consensual porn imagery and racist abuse.

The past several years we've seen the normalization of absolutely deplorable behavior in online spaces and irl. It's honestly driven me nuts how there's a lack of any reaction at all to everything that's been going on. Thank you, Alanah, for the reminder that this shit is not acceptable.

An excellent (as always) video from Alanah about the disgusting shit going on on Twitter. I'm not going to criticise anyone for still using Twitter, but anyone that is, I urge you to watch this and then ask yourself if it's really a site you want to continue using.

An obviously decent person with cut through analysis delivered with wit and humour. You can't go wrong.

Twitter is the world’s largest generator of CSAM & non-consensual porn by a margin of about 8000%, and somehow… MSM isn’t even reporting on it. (also includes advice for reporting ‘deepfake harassment’ to police if it escalates to a point where restraining order is necessary) youtu.be/p71qQKmIGhQ

Good video with @charalanahzard.bsky.social on X generating child sexual abuse material and non-consensual undressing pictures and how the mainstream US media have almost all failed to cover the story. youtu.be/p71qQKmIGhQ

To paraphrase @charalanahzard.bsky.social : the more you know about a topic, the more AI tends to get it wrong, so you should only ask it about things you know nothing about

HI THE INDIE FILM I CO-WROTE AND AM CREATIVE PRODUCING IS NOW ON BLUESKY!!! Go follow @watchgodmother.bsky.social (it genuinely really does help for our upcoming festival run + the likelihood of you being able to see the movie in cinemas!)

I’ve had porn deepfakes made of me since long before genAI existed, and am (sadly) very unphased by it at this point, but I do strongly agree with this sentiment. These men don’t do it to jerk off to - they do it as a means of ‘digital rape’. If anything, they jerk off to knowing you don’t consent.

call me crazy but it really feels like “World’s Richest Man Creates AI Chatbot That Generates Child Porn” would’ve been a huge international outrage requiring a governmental crackdown not even 24 months ago
