All this proving once more that The Game Awards is nothing more than a hollow advertisement, designed explicitly for profit. It's not here for acknowledging cultural achievement, improving the industry or celebrating workers.
We should really stop glorifying this event as a 'celebration of games'.

I was a member of TGA Future Class 2022 and lemmee tell ya, my skin has been crawling since

pretty much every interaction I had with them (few) & story I heard about other members' interactions with them (many) was bad. & by bad I mean, so many shades of being used as photo op tokens & nothing more

EXCLUSIVE on @gamedeveloper.bsky.social: not only has The Game Awards not nominated a Future Class for 2025, it's told alumni it "does not have any active programming plans" for the award.

The Future Class page was taken down sometime this year—eliminating a definitive archive of honorees.

I am going to find the person who hasn't changed Beldum's catch rate from "legendary" and slap them with an Alpha Seaking.

If you're wondering how this will go Square Enix handed off their mobile Octopath game to NetEase who immediately started using ChatGPT to translate everything resulting in text like this. When players complained they started asking fans to fix their translations in exchange for in-game currency

An in-game message featuring awkward language ("due to unmet conditions, the story of the new continent Solistia Chapter cannot be started") and ending with "if there is more text or additional content you want translated, please feel free to provide it!"

Throné: "You did you stay alive for so now? I've changed my opinion of you."

It was announced that Z-A Pokemon could not be transferred to previous Pokemon games when Home support comes online: now we know why, as the Mega Dimension DLC is increasing the level cap.

I've seen enough. The Switch is the most shipped hardware in Nintendo history.

It's a good thing when you have to raise most estimates by 20-25% after financial results, right?

can’t tell if my antidepressants aren’t working or if they just weren’t built for this. like, zoloft was introduced in the 90s it barely needed to work then. if you got sad you could just buy a house.

Thinking about "the Pokemon discourse" again and how the idea that "Pokemon makes a lot of money so it needs to be more AAA" remains an indescribably dumb idea.

Second time I went to see a team in person and they lost the league championship in seven games.

This one stings a hell of a lot more than Edmonton did in 2006.
