Four Boxes, America.

I just have my real name as my username on Xiaohongshu in English at the moment, but it has led to a situation where users on the platform just refer to me as "Senshi" (Because of my PFP) which honestly, makes me pretty happy lmao

These are honestly the stories that should get attention but are buried under endless outrage farmers complaining about minorities or the amount of cleavage alternative costumes have

‘An overwhelmingly negative and demoralizing force’: What it’s like working for a company that’s forcing AI on its artists and developers: aftermath.site/ai-video-game-...

Mega Man told people to pick up a pen that’s my fucking GOAT

Streamed for work today, which means I spent three hours showing off the game and a solid hour and 45 talking about how fucking ASS it is to pay $9 for a Terry’s Chocolate Orange!!

Also, it’s not “bullying” to call out corporations and businesses for dog shit business choices. The fans of these AI titles that are out using ‘progressive’ language to police others frustration in AI, can frankly, eat shit seven ways.

We spoke to a dozen professional concept artists who are currently or have previously worked in game development about whether generative AI image tools have made their jobs any easier. Zero said it did. Most said it made things harder. thisweekinvideogames.com/feature/conc...

TikTok will now be owned by the Ellisons, Jared Kushner's firm, and Abu Dhabi's state investment fund.

Time to leave, gang.

So look man if we're just gonna be online here watching all these big studios come out and lay down on the tracks about Gen AI going "I have to do this for some reason." then I think it's more important than ever to celebrate games from based devs who are out here openly posting "Nuh uh, fuck that."

Come hang out with me :)

They'll ask you to move across the country for a pittance. They'll work you til you develop a condition equally born from acid reflux and anxiety. They'll lay you off when you only make one billion dollars instead of two, and then they'll give this guy more money than you'll ever make in your life.

Streaming again tomorrow. One last one before 2026 arrives. We'll have giveaways, and (!!!) we'll be showing off a sneak peek at our new Twitch integration!

The thing about GenAI freaks is they know nobody likes it and they're trying to erode the foundations with tiny cuts. "Oh I'm just a little guy, we only did the concepts and placeholders with genAI, it's also my birthday!". Absolute rejection is the only possible response, otherwise the dam breaks.

YouTube has a fascist breeding algorithm and is a pipeline to the alt-right. We need a YouTube killer ATProto app sooooooooon 😩

Being the director of the FBI and releasing a couples podcast while a mass shooter is on the loose is a wild choice

if you're part of Larian that pushed back on generative AI initatives, i want to talk to you anonymously: [email protected] signal: joell.01

If you're annoyed by the out of touch CEO AI hot take on the TL today, spend some of that energy on promoting non-AI material. Bias included, naturally, but, how about some of ours? <3

Concept art by talented Elaine Luo, we absolutely recommend checking out the rest of their portfolio!

> Victims of communism memorial > Look inside > Hitler, Mussolini

the larian stuff sucks to hear a lot. you have to be a true all-timer loser to think generative AI is useful for concepting ideas or artwork. you let the machine do the fun part you dumbass. it doesnt tell me you think efficiently it tells me youre a fuckass who's given up on being interesting

Only one thing can turn this into a December to remember and it's illegal to say what that thing is

Damn, just imagine this could happen to a game that was good or interesting or remotely worth caring about !

—I’ve been asked to baptise the King of Spain’s daughter —Infanta? —No, holy water as usual. Weird thing to ask honestly

Hey you! Stop playing Fortnite!

online gambling is essentially legal and open money fixing and laundering at this point

I derive a lot of joy that even when Canada is focused on protecting its sovereignty from American media and interests that none of us were like “Actually, Kendrick…” Like yea, fair shout on Drake. If anything we’re sorry, he’s like Jordan Peterson, one of our other less than stellar exports.

Oh wow, absolute power corrupted you absolutely? That’s so weird, I got absolute power last year and my subjects say I’ve only gotten wiser and more virtuous

We had the 100 Gold required to cover The Game Awards trailer fee, but sadly had to give 99 of that back to Hildegard due to some light property damage. We'll settle on sharing the For The King II trailer here! Your help spreading the Resistance's message is greatly appreciated, Adventurer! ⚔️

I’d really, really like an answer from @geoffkeighley.bsky.social as to whether or not he actually invited a guy known for serially harassing and tormenting numerous women into the same fucking room as many of those women.

Go on, treat yourself.

There's no perfect regulation, but social media being regulated in Canada right now over the States, is starting to become a prerequisite for me. Canada's digital laws need work, but this is frankly ICC shit, but we're too afraid to hold Propagandists culpable for their work.

This fucks and I'm immensely jealous of studios who get to do cool shit like this.

Something I have to reiterate is that you are being straight up lied to about trans people and our healthcare on an unfathomable scale, this instance reporting is already being torn to shreds by other people commenting, but the frequency of this kind of reporting is astonishing, it's neverending.

in case anyone was wondering wtf happened to @thelouvreof.bsky.social/Louvre of Bluesky: the creator got doxxed, bsky did nothing, and they decided to go out in a blaze of glory

AI use in government should result in immediate firing. If an elected official, it should immediately result in an by-election to remove them from office.

Time is owned by Marc Benioff, the CEO of Salesforce, which is currently trying to sell its AI tool to ICE in order to triple their recruitment. just a thing I think about sometimes while I’m at work, implementing his product for nonprofits.

I've kicked off about Steam's (Professionally, of course) DOG SHIT moderation system for years. Glad its hit the news cycle, will likely force them to do something, but, I imagine the usual grifter suspects will also take this opportunity to be fucking nightmares about this.

No one is going to save you this time, America.

Another good reason to not bother watching.

Trump and co fully just referring to Canada as a vassal state now, btw. Get him in the mid terms though, for sure 👍

Valve has now rejected my complaint, confirming that "I don't like muslims" is a valid reason to leave a negative review on a game on Steam This is where we're at now.

Genuinely incredibly fascinating study in what marketing vectors lead to literally zero sales here, wowwww kotaku.com/king-meat-gl...

Scratch a liberal something something.

It's lost on the current bunch of money folks that this is basically the history of Hollywood movies as a cultural and business phenomenon -- understanding that you HAVE to take risks, but if you just manage that risk you can cultivate a lasting, broad-based audience and STILL have huge wins.

Give him a little hair tussle, you feckless cunt.
