kinda giving away the game if you have to pretend your shitty AI is a real person, because people won't willingly read regurgitated slop from ReviewBot #5.

Still thinking bout Sinners

Hell is Us and Styx publisher Nacon files for insolvency

Hey. Tell people when they do good job. When you like the stuff they make. When you like the characters they’ve created. The stories they’ve told. Nobody hears it as often as you think bc everyone thinks everyone hears it all the time. Trust. They don’t. Tell. Them.

Wemby actually did that lol

If we continue to let out-of-touch executives make out-of-touch decisions, this industry is going to look unrecognizable fast. Say what you will about Phil Spencer, Sarah Bond, and Xbox in recent years, but they were clued into the gaming community, even as Microsoft pushed the current against them.

I think it’s healthy to just block three to five people at random every day. Why? Because fuck them, whoever they are.

Nadella next week:

Incredibly wild that Natya mentions everyone BUT Sarah Bond in his email to staff.

the immediate impact is one thing, but this is one of those weeks in the industry that's gonna ripple out over years, in ways we'll only learn about through reporting. so i guess i'm saying, now is a great time to support and read the work those reporters are doing, so they can chase it.

A little over a year ago MS gave XB unrealistic goal metrics to hit for Gamepass subscriber growth "or else." It's part of why they went on a slash and burn axing studios to cut costs. XB was never going to be able to meet MS's goal. This is all to offset MS investment in AI that only loses money.
