Warfame's story in a single sentence: You're an immortal child space ninja, super soldier, wizard, cowboy, fighter pilot, time traveler trying to get over your weird relationship with your adoptive mother and her ex while trying to kill god.

Electronic Arts can't manage a single studio that isn't designed to produce annually or using live-service models. I've said this before, and I'll say it again, they don't buy studios to benefit from those studios' creations; they buy them to kill their perceived competition. Slowly. While we watch.

I've come to the conclusion it's fine to just be blanket anti-AI right now. We can have the nuanced discussions about local models, limited usage, etc. later. It's simply not possible to have those discussions right now. The current emergency is AI as fascist movement. We need to fight that.

Are you looking for games from the heart where no AI is used this next fest? Here’s Alpine Lake, a cozy innkeeper RPG. I love working on it at a manageable pace with traditional tools. I have immense respect for the craft and I wouldn’t trade the journey for anything.

PSA: The latest NVIDIA App update adds a Default-ON option that allows AI Agents to control the app... Might want to turn it off.. Even aside from being lame AI features, that feels like making security even worse by defaulting it ON.

Screenshot of the Nvidia app's "Settings > Features" section. Showing the newly added "AI Agents and App Connections" section. The option for "Allow Agents to control NVIDIA App" is enabled by default. This happened in version 11.0.9.565

after two years of bargaining thanks to activision's stall tactics, unionized workers have authorized a strike. I spoke to them, as well as an ex-employee with disability issues who was basically forced out of the company due to the return-to-office policies the union has been trying to fight

“I repeatedly received essentially the same answer [from Activision]: that working in the office was considered an essential function of my position and that the company would not meaningfully consider remote work,” Kunze said. “I have watched coworkers struggle with similar issues involving accommodations, attendance, return-to-office expectations, AI uncertainty, outsourcing fears, and inconsistent treatment. Employees frequently tell each other they are exhausted. Many stay quiet because they fear retaliation. Some leave.” Near his wit’s end in 2025, Kunze gathered documentation of his experience and filed complaints with the Minnesota Department of Human Rights and the United States Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. Then came multiple internal investigations of Kunze’s conduct from company brass in 2026, which to Kunze felt retaliatory. "Employees frequently tell each other they are exhausted. Many stay quiet because they fear retaliation. Some leave."
