As someone that might be considered in "Big Games", I'll give you an alternative. When games cost tens of millions of dollars, an extra $500 per devkit is barely even noticeable for the average AAA game budget.

Instead of blaming internal sabotage and external paid reviewers, maybe take a shred of responsibility for the game and culture you created at your studio.

Want to avoid AI gen on Steam? This browser userscript might save your day

With more and more game developers creating AI slop, or just using AI generation for stupid things in their games, we need more ways to avoid them.

It's funny as he's a hockey player and has to be pretty tough to do that at all, but my brain instantly goes to "this is a frail human being, do not breathe near him" after seeing that. I don't even feel that way around my enfeebled mother.

Petition to have all baseball games on TV announced by the announcer from Baseball Stars Professional.

I like seeing Slaf sitting on people, but gotta be careful about that. A lot of teams will be very happy to trade penalties when it takes someone from the top line off the ice.

Amazon broadcasting Buffalo vs. Montreal's hockey game tonight. Easily my favorite hockey broadcaster as they give you things like being able to just watch the pregame warmups, eavesdropping in on the broadcast team as they go over their notes and talk to each other, etc... doing it right.

Oh my god, I gotta watch this now for sure.

I dropped Spotify a while ago when they started to run ads for the Government of Quebec warning people of the "dangers" and "evils" of using English words, even just one in an otherwise fully French sentence. Do we not have better things to worry about? Maybe advertise French courses?

Wajahat Ali @wajali.bsky.social · 2d

Cancel SPOTIFY.

They are running ICE ads.

F them.

Is Spotify running ICE recruitment ads? Here are the facts

The advertising "is part of a broad campaign the US government is running" across various platforms — not just Spotify, a spokesperson told Snopes.
