Everytime one of these guys opens their mouth about how great AI is, we were that actually they don’t know what the fuck they’re talking about and maybe games were a miracle all along

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.

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'm going to go through every story in @unwinnable.com's October issue over the course of today. Before we do, though, let us once again contemplate the spooktacularness of Tyler Pennington's horrific cover art.

This is what a digital-only future has brought us to. 210 fucking GBs, that's absolutely ridiculous. Shit needs to go back to fitting on discs

Sean ran The House Edge for us over on One Shot!!! I'm obsessed with every character in the Vegas Four but ESPECIALLY Acey Deucey

I’m becoming increasingly confused by people “not understanding” things. Everyone says they “had no idea what was happening during Control?” Huh? Watching a video rn “I had no idea what happened during the end of Blair Witch!” Wha? And I say this as someone who struggles to catch deeper meanings

And I’m seeing about this for so many things! And the only connective tissue I’ve noticed is that they’re stories that don’t explain every single thing, and leave meaning up to interpretation. And I guess people just can’t either grapple with that or don’t want to accept it??

TFW you get an email about a guest inquiry, who honestly sounds like they would be a great fit, but the email itself is AI-generated and calls you the wrong name

We go see our nephew for Halloween and the whole neighborhood turns out for trick or treating. My job is Car Adult. I watch for cars. Are there a lot of cars? No, it’s a neighborhood street. But there’s also a lot of hidden corners and odd cross streets. And 20-something kids. Never too safe

Katie Mack@astrokatie.com

A reminder, because it is almost that time of year: More children are killed by cars on Halloween than any other day of the year, by far. www.vox.com/future-perfe... If you're a parent, I hope you'll do what you can to keep kids safe. If you're driving on Saturday, PLEASE exercise extra caution.

Mass Effect was my ultimate white whale, my all-time dream project. For the last couple years I'd been in discussion w/ BioWare & EA to take on the project & as part of that I wrote close to 20 minutes of music to explore where the franchise can go next, may as well share it!

Living with a combination of depression and ADHD means constantly stopping myself from opening that door every few months.

Every (increasingly common) time this happens it's the most embarrassing shit imo. I could give one flying fuck about "Mass Effect" as a thing, I care about Bioware, the studio. The people that worked hard for DECADES to create millions of works of art

Hayes Madsen@solfleet.bsky.social

Does it need to be said that Mass Effect shouldn’t exist without the developers and team that was working on this game? Either they come back and make the game they were, or Mass Effect dies. kotaku.com/mass-effect-...

I've seen more than a few people jump in defense of things like this, saying "that's not me! that's not the true fans!" and it just feels like when guys say "oh but it's not ALL men!" You're only having a reaction because something about it is hitting you. If you understood, you'd understand.

I'd love it if people stopped posting screencaps of racists from Twitter like we should give a flying fuck what they think or say. We can just ignore them y'all.

Friendly reminder not to sleep on your Steam OST sales Freelance composers better be negotiating to keep it, DO NOT settle with just streaming service royalties. You earn AT LEAST 100x more from Steam sales than from a broken streaming industry It also aint hard to calculate:

As disappointing as it is to see "progressive" politicians throw trans people under the bus to score points with bigots that will never voite for them, it's absolutely disgusting to see other trans people do it. "He can do a little discrimination towards some kids" Do you fucking hear yourself???

He also mentioned that, when he visited the BioWare HQ yesterday, some seniors were still around, trying to help juniors find work, and opening their old storage to keep collector items, original concept arts, etc. Glad it's not just... destroyed :') The stream was a lot longer, here's the VOD:

IT WILL KILL is a solo or duet ttrpg set in the 3rd act of a slasher movie. I taken the gambit based combat system of Mythic Bastionland and turned it into a narrative action engine. In duet mode, a second player takes the roll of the movie's villain, turning your narrative dice pool against you.
