Wow this sucks. I liked the idea of The Lift, but this absolutely kills my enthusiasm for it. I'm... glad they have AI Placeholder watermarks on the generated images, but not using Steam's disclosure section is unacceptable, as the watermarks aren't easy to see unless you're scanning every image.

A free and democratic society cannot silence comedians because the President doesn’t like what they say. This is an attack on free speech and cannot be allowed to stand. All elected officials need to speak up and push back on this undemocratic act.

Now that I'm (almost) done putting together all of my Warhammer sets, I finally have the table space to play boardgames again and figured I'd give Dorfromantik a shot. It's so, so good- to the point where I'd comfortably argue that it's better than the original digital version.

I know other creators have been beating this dead horse for the last week or two, but YouTube's new 'Restricted Mode' is an indiscriminate menace and it bothers me to no end. Of the last 48 videos I've uploaded to my channel, 17 of them have been restricted for exceedingly unclear reasons.

"Political violence" is a term that exists to suggest a moral distinction between "violence against politicians" and "violence by politicians" - so that one can be condemned while the other can be normalized. Obviously, no such distinction exists in reality: violence is violence.

Just a heads up for YouTube folks: YT has implemented "Most Relevant" as the new default sorting method, and I can only assume it's just as terrible as all their other "AI"-powered features. Luckily you can also set default filters now, so it's probably a good idea to switch it back to Newest asap.

I PROMISE you it is better for your activist flyer or pamphlet or website to have bad art, rather than AI art. People correctly see the usage of AI generated art or text as a betrayal of the laborers who the owners of this technology seek to replace. Are you for the bosses or the workers?

I would be over the moon if this happened more often. Some games are functionally perfect, and a sequel/prequel/remix with most of the same assets is such a good way to cut down on dev time.

Sorry, I know the word has already outstayed its welcome, but I think the main reason I don't like 'friendslop' is because I associate 'slop' with genAI, and I think it's useful to maintain that specific association. Let that be its rightful home, not as a descriptor for low-budget multiplayer games

This is quite possibly the best TTRPG bundle I’ve ever seen. Spire, Wildsea, Apocalypse World, Mazes, Dragonbane, Cipher, Root, and Vaesen are among my favorite TTRPGs ever made. If even 2-3 of those catch your eye then the full bundle is worth picking up.

I had a developer scold me last night, saying "Don't judge a book by its cover." after I had rejected them for what looked like AI art. But what choice to I have? At this point I have to be suspicious of every new game, judging based on public facing images, and it's hard to tell sometimes.

I get a lot of emails for new games seeking coverage, and nothing lets a game skip ahead on my to-do list more than a “this game wasn’t made with generative AI”. Its not an instant guarantee, but it helps so much.
