I appreciate that people want a new Mass Effect, but the future where fans advocate for the work itself and not the people who make it is the one the vultures at EA want. If you'll take it however you get it, they can keep treating people who make what you love as expendable.

I feel like ever since Twitter became X and Bluesky started, I have lost touch with the international gaming community and can't get it back. Not sure why it's hard to find anything on Bluesky, I must be using it wrong ๐Ÿค”

Making games is a business. But without people who genuinely love making games, there wonโ€™t be much of a business left. The industry doesnโ€™t just need better numbers. It needs more passionate people in leadership, more new talent welcomed in, and more belief that games are art worth fighting for.

I went to sleep last night, pretty happy that i got to 70 wishlists on the first day of my game's store being live, expecting i'd wake up to maybe 5 more. but it nearly doubled overnight??? I know it's not as many as some people brag about but this genuinely made my day already #gamedev #indiedev

Every year I come here and ask myself: why don't I move closer to a beach? Living in Cairo is exhausting, though I can't complain because I have moved to New Cairo 6 years ago when I got married. But still, it's draining.

Replying to @ramiismail.com

Israel has committed so many war crimes in its genocide that literal Holocaust scholars are suggesting that the term "genocide" -defined to be the ultimate crime- no longer suffices for Israel's conduct. Apartheid scholars have said in no uncertain terms Israel has "perfected" apartheid.

Today Microsoft moved all its GitHub copilot subscribers to token-based billing. If you want to see what happens when people have to pay the actual costs of AI, the day is finally here. It's obvious that every customer sees the deep, meaningful value and isn't angry at all.
