I will die on this hill. Warhammer needs to evolve if we don't want to see it slide further and further into fascist propaganda.

To create a trans character in warhammer that is taken in good faith, to have someone who is neither a literally physical threat to humanity's existence or a weapon of the worst regime known throughout history, one thing needs to change. The Emperor Must Die

It sucks that Mass Effect 4 isn't coming out, but even if it did you shouldn't buy it. EA is owned by the Saudi royal family and Jared Kushner's private equity fund. Any money you spend on Mass Effect in 2026 goes into the pockets of the Trump family and Mohammed bin Salman.

I love being reminded that the audience really doesn’t give a shit about the developers. Like, forget that one of the most influential studios in our industry was just executed by its publisher, just make sure the product continues on the assembly lines!

After hearing news of BioWare's closure on Wednesday, over 75,000 Mass Effect fans have signed a petition demanding that EA put another studio in charge of the franchise or license out the IP. https://bit.ly/4siIubW

Took a break from the demos to play Map Map - A Game About Maps. Use an expanding selection of tools to pinpoint landmarks and interesting items on a series of island maps in a child's imagination. Entertaining, low-intensity, and getting quite finicky near the end. Out now and there's a demo.

The fact that billionaires can just buy an entire film distribution company that has been running and respected for over a decade to kill a documentary about their billionaire friend and nothing can be done about it is just Fuck man

Talia would know better than I, but the idea of either queerness or queerphobia as a 'western imposition' smacks of western supremacy, as if colonisers are the only people who could invent either queerness or bigotry and that the colonised have no power to define themselves or their own actions.

Twitch continues to do our marketing for us I see. "we don't want to make our own tools, bet we can get someone else to pay for the LLM slop too" - twitch probably. Meanwhile, our site is made by a single human dev with assistance from community members who actually know what they're doing.

OpenAI and Twitch are teaming up to see what developers can build for the Twitch community with AI. The top five will be featured at Twitchcon.

Deathloop has STYLE, the island's environments feel like places that could actually exist dressed in glorious 70s excess. The journey of exploration, discovery, practice, and that final masterful loop is brilliant fun. So rewarding.

Yes! Deathloop is seriously underrated. I’m always surprised and sad to learn so few of my friends played it. It’s fantastic, original, and also has brilliant voice acting.

This game is maybe the single most absurd dev story in the industry at this point Partially because its a sequel to BEYOND GOOD & EVIL A great game! That didn't sell super well! And only ever had the one cult hit game! That came out 23 years ago! What an impossibly stupid mess they've made.

HOW ABOUT MAKING A SEQUEL TO BEYOND GOOD AND EVIL

STOP doing colourblind filters. I don't wanna change the entire look of the game to piss yellow or blue and then still not be able to tell the colour apart that im trying to distinguish. Just let us change UI elements OR BETTER YET STOP USING RED AND GREEN

Everything is so much simpler when you're watching live video of planes landing or taking off. People going to and from all these far off places. Holiday makers, business people, maybe artists and musicians, scientists and engineers attending conventions, planes full of letters and parcels. Life.

And I look at the flight times. 50 minutes from Dublin, people have just had time to get comfortable, listen to a podcast or read a few chapters of a book, and they're alighting again. 8 hours from Dubai, their sore and achy and just glad to be on the ground again. Looking for a bed or a coffee.
