I play and make video games and try to figure out work-life balance. Currently working at Red Stage Entertainment, but this account is purely personal and in no way representative of the company.

I say this with zero irony: if you are even tangentially a part of a retro video game community, it is your civic duty to push back against this company and shun anyone who doesn't. This is fascism tapping gently at the door and as soon as you let it in, it's going to invite its friends.

a sign people really want a feature and find it good is when companies make turning it off a 12 part process (firefox), require registry modifications (microsoft) or contact support to reveal the real off switch instead of their two decoy toggles (google) so they can claim people don't turn it off 📈

It’s not Larian’s fault but it chaps my ass that because they’re Larian they can have a trailer with a full on orgy in it in the middle of the Game Awards and meanwhile adult content in games everywhere else is getting cracked down on left and right.

The point of this post was to say "I value my free time a lot more as as 32 year old."
I'm a lot more weary of things as I have aged especially in the gaming landscape. So many current games treat you as a consumer when we are the customer. If a game doesn't value my time I don't value it.

However you frame it, Valve's ham-fisted ban of an indie darling is another blow for free expression in video games, and this will always be a tragedy
Free expression in video games is in the spotlight, and Valve's banning of Horses might be only one instance of many that put that expression at risk.
