NEW: Following an employment tribunal that saw a group of fired Rockstar union workers denied interim relief, I asked a UK employment solicitor to explain how the mechanism works and why the threshold for success is so high.
Why would a UK judge deny fired Rockstar workers interim relief?

Okay, so I just reached a twist that I’ve been predicting would occur since very early on. I’m not disappointed though, because it’s a cool idea and I’m keen to see where things go from here.
I AM going to be smug about predicting it so early though 🥰

Loving Blood Over Bright Haven. Super cool dark academia fantasy book with imperialist/feminist themes at its core, a fascinating magic system, and likeable characters.

Am I showing my millennial ass by referencing Gen Z and not Gen Alpha? Yes, yes I am. Definitely more Alpha bait.

My theory is that Mr Bean has all the potential in the world to get discovered by Gen Z and become this huge viral thing. He’s like a Backrooms or Cappucina Ballerina just waiting to be found and shared in short clips and memes.

It’s so over for VR, man.
Update: Meta has shut down three game studios and laid off all employees.
-Armature, the devs behind the VR port of Resident Evil 4
-Twisted Pixel, the studio that made Deadpool VR
-Sanzaru, which developed Asgard's Wrath 1 and 2.

There’s something really transcendent about watching someone demonstrate their passion for a craft in such expert fashion. This is a reminder of the capacity humans have for being awesome in the literal sense of the word.

If reports are accurate, at least - it appears this is just a rumour for the time being! I wouldn’t be surprised if it hits 3 hours, but close to 4 does seem a bit unlikely in hindsight when they could split that in two and make twice as much money.

The magic system is so, so good. By the end I had multiple enemies floating in the air as I peppered them with all kinds of elemental magic while storms rained down striking lighting on them. Super cool!

NGL, the idea of playing again as a gun-toting dwarf very much compels me.
Best 8/10 of last year. It’s undercooked, but it’s cooked enough to be delicious regardless.

This appears to just be a rumour for now, but I wouldn’t be surprised if it were leaked intentionally to gauge reactions. Every teaser trailer has been leaked shortly before release in a pattern that’s felt quite deliberate to keep a conversation rumbling along.

Perhaps we’re getting a whole hour setting up Doom, a whole hour with the X-Men before their universe falls apart etc. Enough time for the large ensemble of characters to each get their due.

As crazy as this is, I’m just glad it’s not going to feel like a rushed mess in the final cut. Age of Ultron felt like it moved too fast, nothing had the space to breathe.

That’s great to hear! Every chapter I’ve read so far has made me keen to start the next. I’ve seen this author’s previous book (The Sword of Kaigen) recommended a bunch too.
