Gaming fandom is trained to love IP (see the petition) but hate the people in the industry ('lazy devs', 'did you see what Kotaku said???') because they don't see them as people but faceless entities

sorry i need to publicly be a hater for a second but what do you mean the giant 230k+ signature save mass effect petition is only about the IP and not the devs that were laid off

The CEO class exists to corrupt every artistic endeavor into a sweatshop to satisfy their endless gluttony for money, and then sacrifice all the pawns who made it happen, so they can gobble up even more money. ... I mean, uh, that'll teach them to be woke! Or something

The level of racism for politicians in my country to be able to say "brown people don't produce anything of value" and the specific brown people they're talking about are the ones who practically invented math

"arabs have contributed nothing to the arts and sciences" is such a funny fucking thing for a bog ape wearing a little suit to say

It's even more angering to me when other trans people will see "cringe" trans art and say that it's "setting the community back" or "making us look bad". Actually transphobes are going to hate us no matter what, you're just miserable and want everyone else to hate themselves like you do

JenWave1995@jenwave1995.bsky.social

When trans creators are subtle, people dismiss the trans subtext as “headcanon.” When trans creators are loud and proud, people call it “obnoxious” and “cringe.” They just don’t want us to be represented in media at all. Because they don’t want us to exist at all.

It gets to a point where I have to question if the executive class has just removed their souls and replaced them with data farms already

There was a fucking hole in our planet’s *atmosphere* Like a legit, no joke, “this will unravel our entire ecosystem” hole in the world, and then we fixed it by working together across national and political lines As a species we decided, “we will survive” Let’s do that some more

Social media loves talking about how everything is getting worse. But what’s something that you’ve seen get _better_ in your lifetime?

its very telling that critics in more left leaning spaces are obviously bummed out about corporations destroying the teams that worked on games they were often heavily critical of whereas grifters are reacting to bioware, 343 etc as personal victories in the war against blue hair and pronouns

‘Poison Ivy’ series is in the works at HBO • 'The Penguin' showrunner Lauren LeFranc is in talks to produce the series • It will not be set in Matt Reeves' Batman universe (via Deadline)

Not to be all "Cape shit isn't *real* art" But the fact that over half of the highest grossing movies aren't even original ideas, and are just adaptations of stuff you already recognize, is concerning

People want to blame graphical fidelity, scope expectations, etc etc etc for ballooning budgets and schedules when DA:V, a game with stylized visuals and constrained content expectations, "cost" however the fuck many hundreds of millions to come out because they made three games and shipped one

By the way, y'all know that, if this game is ass, it's getting endlessly compared to the awesome Battlefront 3 that we never got Just, keep that in mind before you go and do another micro transaction system

‘STAR WARS: BATTLEFRONT 3’ is in the works. Respawn and DICE are teaming up to develop the game. (Source: variety.com/2026/digital...)
