uchikoshi pretty literally said this too in that inteview recently and idk yall. if you view your coworkers as obstacles instead of collaborators maybe you're just a bad leader

I appreciate the bar is quite low but this excerpt from an interview with Molyneux about AI is almost too on the nose. Nice anecdote about a colleague he used to respect and enjoy working with, followed by an explanation of how him and everyone like him is now expendable.

NEW: Remedy's latest game, Control Resonant, is filled with art galleries. The galleries are filled with real art When I began talking to Remedy about it, I was delighted to discover who the artists are: many are the game developers' parents My story... www.gamefile.news/p/control-re...

gamefile.newsWho made the art inside Control Resonant?When the developers of Control Resonant needed to fill their video game version of New York City with art galleries, they tapped the talents of people they knew particularly well

I wanted to not write this! I'd rather talk about the cool games that are coming out every day. Yes, Sweeney has half a point. But for everything correct he says about Valve's near-monopoly, he does two headass things that only drive people further towards Valve. Billionaire yells at monolith.

I also only just learned!! The most recent patch note from a couple weeks back very gently pushes back against the Married Couple allegations lol

Bauza… the kindest, sweetest, funniest friend and also the most talented, wish I could talk to you about all this. I miss making silly videos in the toy aisle with you doing the voices, going to the to see the latest animated feature, eating Japanese bbq. You’d always cheer me up when I was sad…🩵

THE BAGMAN asks what if the Genesis/Megadrive had its own version of Clock Tower, introduces an "if then" command system for moving NPCs around, and then swaps the mouse buttons for "look" and "use" that every other point and click game has used for decades for no good reason. Intrigues me, though!

My heart is heavy. Walter Koenig, our Ensign Pavel Chekov, passed away early today. Walter and I met on the bridge of the Enterprise in the 1960s, and we stayed friends for nearly six decades. When Brad and I married in 2008, Walter stood beside us as our best man.

So much to say about Brazil, not least of which is the role that Erika Hilton, a Black trans leader and most voted woman politician in Brazil, played in mobilizing folks for Lula. She was behind the critical, concrete, economic promise of shorter work-week. theprint.in/feature/erik...

APPLE CRUMBLE is a cozy mystery game and it appears to be up to you if it becomes a cozy MURDER mystery game. I think I can guess the conceit of the mystery from the demo but it'll be interesting to see if the full game sticks the landing! The art style is gorgeous and the voice acting impeccable!

CODE OF THE SAVAGE harkens back to the days of oldschool CRPGs like Ultima, and like those games this feels like it's best played with the manual open next to you and the hotkey sheet perched on top of the function keys on your keyboard. There's in-game tutorial tips but... it's not the same.

ANOMALITH asks what if you were a ranger from the FBC of Remedy's Control, only you were an anime girl who also gains magical powers through parrying? Honestly, very stiff and slow-paced which feels like it came from a world that never had RE4, with sudden difficulty spikes when facing bosses.

Also, full disclosure: I know the voice actor for the main character and have auditioned for parts in this game in the past so I might not have the most impartial opinion on this game. Demo's still worth trying out though!

Fun fact: this is also true of gardeners! Beginners often use mistakes as proof they’re not good enough, but experienced gardeners know you just have to keep making mistakes, and eventually it all works out. Every garden is a bunch of happy accidents, and I think that’s beautiful.

For aspiring voice actors (or really any creative) wondering when they will finally feel like a professional: the distinction between beginner and seasoned pro is not that the pro makes no mistakes. A pro makes a LOT more mistakes, faster, and more embarrassing mistakes than any beginner!

EA's closure of BioWare is transparently a vile move to shutter the studio that made by far their queerest titles. In the wake of this, I implore you: MAKE MORE QUEER ART. Make it trans. Make it horny. Make it scary. Make it loving. Make it with every inch of yourself. Flood the world with it!
