The interview includes a specific example of a writer/creator getting into games (and now development) from a underprivileged country thanks to emulation.

CYBERPUNK-98 Hope I got the palette limitations right!

Extremely messed up time to be in online media www.reuters.com/business/uk-...

Saw a Mario Galaxy Movie critic take that refers to the film changing/messing up the "Mario Lore" and I strongly now feel the need to go to sleep for 1000 years

This October, I will be interviewing PlayStation legend Ken Kutaragi on stage in the UK. It's part of Game Republic New Horizons. Tickets available now. The interview will be released via TGB at a later date. www.thegamebusiness.com/p/were-speak...

I had a chance to talk with the writers at ZA/UM working on Zero Parades. I asked them several questions about the process of writing on a narrative RPG in this style. I also asked them the hard question about the studio controversy. Here's what they said, if you are curious.

I am in pieces, on the floor, unable to move, destroyed utterly. You think it's done in the middle and then you get to a youtuber with erectile dysfunction trying to come up with witticisms at the end. There should be awards for this stuff.

I've been quiet about my legal case as I take it very seriously and wish to keep it as separate from my everyday life as possible, but I wanted to give you all an update that provides some context for my commentary. 🧵 (1/10) kusklaw.sharefile.com/share/view/s...

Would the fans support me if I decided to become a Nonverbal Autistic Man? Or would I get the usual runaround from clout chasing dick heads

How I feel reading 99% of art and media critique these days

Imagine if people like this had the same energy for literally anything that actually mattered

meeting many interesting people in the counter strike community

I get so many pitches where I'm on edge as to if the portfolio samples are AI-aided (or even AI written) now

If you really think about it, Epic is doing the game industry a favor by firing 1,000 people. 🙄

Tomodachi Life has no filter in it btw

Ten minute panic at an uncharacteristic revenue drop before finally using my damn eyes and seeing, in a bright yellow box at the top of the page, "NUMBERS FOR YESTERDAY ARE CURRENTLY INCOMPLETE. PLEASE CHECK BACK LATER." back to bed i think

i guess those celebrating soras death didnt get the memo that some of us need daily personalized greetings from james bond—for mental health

everyone in the games industry understands this with no added context

« Since it’s a thing now, I should note that the layoffs aren’t related to AI. » Pas du tout comme ce qui est arrivé à leurs prestataires de localisation qui n'ont pas du tout été dégagés pour être remplacés par des boîtes dociles faisant de la post-édition à bas coût de traductions IA.

this is what it looks like when you book flights from your phone

it's quite simple. phone is fake computer

A bit like Wall Market, one of those areas that doesn't stand a chance of evoking the same feeling with the fixed perspective removed, but I hope they successfully find a new feel (as they did with WM)

Final Fantasy VII ~ ファイナルファンタジーVII (1997) Developed by Squaresoft.

The thing about constantly pursuing realistic and "better" graphics is that in 2002 there was this little GameCube game called "Resident Evil" a remake of a tragically unknown PS1 game you see... And... That's still the most gorgeous looking game even today. We peeked 25 years ago!

Adam Sessler never did like turn-based combat much

I wonder what that ex-TV guy I used to see blackout drunk at every industry event I went to 20 years ago is up to these days

I think the question is -- is this really a /problem/, or just a reality the devs need to reckon with? There are plenty of franchises that have just owned the fact their player base is aging while finding it difficult to reach new generations, and has ultimately made lemonade out of those lemons.

Placeholder assets in a game should look obnoxiously temporary, so obvious that no one would mistake it for the final asset. In past games we've used the doge dog (rip) as an icon, hot pink versions of characters, our CEO's head, etc. If you use a temp asset that seems passable, it may stay there.

GreedFall: The Dying World fails to live up to the potential showcased by its flawed but ambitious predecessor, resulting in a wearisome experience that is merely 'okay'. Our review: https://www.rpgsite.net/review/19812-greedfall-the-dying-world-review

Saw your boyfriend in Hobbycraft

Reporter: Why didn't you tell allies about the war before attacking Iran? Trump: We wanted it to be a surprise. Who knows better about surprise than Japan? Why didn't you tell me about Pearl Harbor?

This is a really important edition. The video game industry worldwide is facing the prospect of age verification and even bans... so last week PEGI, the European age ratings agency, made big changes to show Governments the industry can police itself. Will it be enough?

if you visit this place you should be on a watchlist

if this movie has the Stardust Speedway (JP/EU) music in a highly recognizable way I might actually literally cry
