Here's the thing y'all Even if they made a new Mass Effect where you could be any flavour of queer, romance anyone, all that stuff Your dollars still go DIRECTLY to the Saudi family and Jared fucking Kushner. You need to let it go now.

EA belongs partially to the Saudi Public Investment Fund. The company tells employees its new "partners" won't make creative decisions, but queer BioWare, Apex Legends, and Sims fans aren't convinced. https://kotaku.com/electronic-arts-saudi-arabia-acquisition-lgbtqia-mass-effect-sims-2000735185

the average tech exec and venture capitalist and honestly an alarming amount of bay area software engineers have close to zero interaction or connection with regular people, and the richer they are, the more isolated they've become. They have built rationalizations for everything.

Tech execs do not have, like, a theory of mind for people who aren’t tech execs. If they did, they wouldn’t be so frequently baffled by how repulsive normal people think their whole deal is right now

This was a fascinating exercise: find out what went wrong with creativity in the games industry. The conclusion: there are too many cowards controlling too many critical levers, and until we figure out how to put people -taste, creativity, and craft- back at the top, we're going to be stuck.

The games industry is stifled by a culture of fear, concludes a workgroup hosted by Rami Ismail. https://bit.ly/4vPbIzv

ahem, AI CANNOT ASSIGN COPYRIGHT. YOU WILL NOT OWN THE THINGS THIS THING MAKES EVEN IF THEY TRY AND ASSIGN IT TO YOU. USING THIS WOULD TECHNICALLY BE IN VIOLATION OF 100% OF PUBLISHER AGREEMENTS I HAVE SEEN

'The road to Unreal Engine 6' - www.unrealengine.com/news/the-roa... "for UE6, we see LLMs, generative AI models, and tools like Claude and Codex playing a central role in helping you build content faster while maintaining the creative control you need."

Since genAI has completely fucked the market for home computers, I guarantee there'll be an article complaining that people are playing older and less resource-intensive games and how this is killing the AAA gaming industry

Nintendo doesn't need AI because the people who do the homework that AI copies are under their roof If you're a new hire working on Zelda, you can either chat the person who invented Z Targeting or you can pull up their notes. The person who designed the platform you're coding for is down the hall

I spoke to @fortune.com about my upcoming book Super Nintendo and the secret(s) to Nintendo's enduring success - a large part of which is cultivating and caring for developers instead of hiring and firing everyone in yearly cycles. (Book deets: linktr.ee/super_nintendo) fortune.com/2025/11/28/s...

IMPORTANT Discord is joining the ID bullshit Do as the images say and disable updates, and start looking for alternatives. If you value your privacy you need to abandon ship and tell them to fuck off. I'm gonna look at some options for my community. This is a dark era and it will only get worse

A twitter post by GoostieBee, featuring an image of Discord's new ID age verification update. Text is as follows "Hey so @discord just rolled this out if anyone n the US wanted to know Prevent updating if you can. I am never giving you my private information or my face Discord"A Discord conversation detailing how you can avoid the update. Important text is as follows "To anyone wondering you can disable the auto update by going into your task manager, going to startup apps, finding the update program, and disabling it"An image showing the exact file called "Update" in the Task Manager. It is accompanied by a Discord message reading "It's this one btw, you can double check by right clicking and opening the file loacation. If it opens the Discord folder, it's correct""You can also right click that file in folder as well, go to properties, and set it to read only"

Maine caved and enacted a trans sports ban at the University level but it's still not enough. Stop capitulating, they won't stop taking from you. They'll keep going until there's nothing left.

A screenshot of a social media post from Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) dated March 22, 2025, at 7:39 AM. The post discusses the State of Maine apologizing for a statement made by their Governor regarding men playing in women's sports at the White House Governor’s Conference. Trump asserts that the Governor herself has not apologized and demands a direct apology and a commitment to avoid such "unlawful challenges" to the Federal Government. The post ends with “MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!!! DJT.” Below the post, engagement metrics show 2.29k ReTruths and 9.58k Likes.

fun fact: if you draw fanart for a game within the first week of any sort of major PR event for it (announcement, demo, release etc) there is a 99% chance the entire dev team on the game knows who you are because they are doing nothing but reposting fanart in slack
