"Know" is such a pedestrian concept. Tech executives are those who have freed themselves from such mundane boundaries as "basic job competency" or "responsibility for one's decisions." They are a freer than these limited and concrete conceptions of "this was obviously going to happen you dumb fuck."

they saw them trying to make a perfect dark game and immediately gutted them

I think we should contemplate the very real possibility every executive is now literally just asking the slop machine what they should do. Like every single one.

Forgot about that possibility....

If the next Id game, if it ever releases, is on UE6 I am going to be on the news

asha sharma going "we want 1 billion players a day" a nice reminder that these execs are fundamentally incapable of understanding that their customers do not have infinite money or even just that time is finite. they just think you haven't been fed the right marketing yet to get you on board

They deleted most of the game already so no, not really.

it's not impossible they just have to finish the game first

i've been playing End of Starlight, a game i assume has flown under the radar of basically everyone (except @dominictarason.com) by virtue of not being on any game storefront play this. play it immediately. shadow game of the year contender. msx.horse/eos/

Well yea, the whole point is that if I have the choice between.. A) buying new $70/80 games to keep up with what's going on but get fucked at every angle -or- B) enjoy old games that are amazing for free I'm now going to do the second one *primarily* and instead of *partially*. That's the point.

Show me a cool physical game

If buying isn’t ownership, piracy isn’t theft

With PS3 the situation is direr than with PS Vita. Across all regions, only half of PSN has been preserved when it comes to games.

good to know that this console gen will be it's last ownership is dead used game market is dead dead delisting will be up the ass and physical delisted games will sky rocket in pricing fuck. this. industry.

Gaming is so funny, because while Tim Sweeney keeps insisting that games NEED online, hi-fidelity graphics, and generative AI to succeed nowadays, one of the most creative and stylistically robust games released this year... is just a Doom mod - the antithesis of everything he's been hyping up

@dcellgames.com thank you.....

I need gta 6 to fail. Desperately.

video games had a good run lol

they dropped the best character design ever then dropped her forever, huh

Happy 10th Anniversary to VA-11 Hall-A

Farewell, Bobby Prince. Thank you for creating the tunes to one of our most beloved computer games ever

the lyric "He's using Unreal Engine in any way he can" continues to age in worse and worse ways

tim sweeny wakes up in a cold sweat every night furious that the entire industry of engine driven games development isn’t just roblox but owned by him

it's so fucking cool how you can never trust anything xbox says or does. nobody does it like them. that game we showed 4 times? it never even entered real development. We knew we were canceling it after the second time we showed it.

Because my (Cassidy's) dander is currently up after letting myself get briefly excited about this piece of steaming shit. Get these fucking talentless / completely AI-dependent hacks out of the games recompilation scene.

Good

uh-huh

rj lake forced me to make an account eve from unbeatable #unbeatable

Blazing hot take: we don't need an Ocarina of Time remake. Just play Ship of Harkinian. Remake bad games instead

fucking finally

no no you don’t understand, we only used AI for the part of the production pipeline where we didn’t want to pay employees, it’s different

"looks fun, im still gonna play it" with these spineless hacks like these no wonder everyone is okay with eating shit

Seeing people talk about genAI use in video games and being like "Well it's fine if it's just coding" No, absolutely not. You do not encroach upon my field and decide it's okay just because you think it's less artistic somehow. Video game code is art too. Way more than it's science, even.

bold of them to announce Persona 6 when consumer electronics won't exist in 2035

but of course lmao.

drum taking a happy swim, swimming happily

i hope RGG Studio burns in hell

geoff charging all these devs and companies millions of dollars to show their trailers for a show with the shittiest stream quality ever

Yokoyama wasnt happy enough bringing back dead characters so he found a way to bring back an actual dead person whatever man

A successful game people broadly seem to like releases and an executive has to rush out and reassure people that they won't be letting that happen again

glad to see everyone calling this out, very unexcited to see everyone play it when it comes out and any mention of this is met with a tepid non-response or "it's pretty good though =/"

mina eating a single popcorn

going to the cinema to watch advertisements and spending 12 dollars on pretzel sticks

you know maybe not being alive in the next decade isn't such a bad way to go

>log into bsky >kojima getting into AI >$950 steam deck >morris day sold out to trump because they don't have Prince money anymore >milli vanilli back from the dead

enjoy your current computer and consoles because they are the last ones you will actually Own for at least a decade lol ps4 about to become the longest-lasting console generation
