Great thread and investigation. Exactly what we all assumed: the ‘confidential information’ was wages and work conditions discussed in a worker-only Discord, not leaking anything about the game. Pure union busting.
EXCLUSIVE: So far it's been unclear what proof Rockstar Games has to justify its firing of 34 union members, who it claims were leaking "confidential information in a public forum".

PMG has now seen some of the messages which contributed to this decision being made.

For reasons I can't bear to mention, this dam goat has the most complex dialogue tree in the game.

Such a lovely preview review from Adam Ryan at Well Played!

@wellplayed.bsky.social always has such amazing writing, truly one of the greats!

🎙️ So does your game have a good physics model?
😅 You could say that.

Your game can be:
1. Pretty
2. Optimized
3. Quick to Develop

But, you can only pick 2.

I wrote a thing about some art I liked, cause I wanted to try doing, like, media-analysis/journalism/criticism-type shenanigans.

I don't know, it was fun to write...

the thing about transition is that you don't have to be sure that it's the thing you want before you start doing things towards it. you can just stop at any time! wear those clothes, cut your hair or don't, ask to be called a different name, see how it feels.

Writing purposefully confusing dialogue, but now I am confused. Slain upon my own sword, I cry for understanding, but my callous foe is the cruellest of authors (myself).

Accidentally gave one random knight in our key fairy playtest 86 stamina. This means it requires 86 stars to calm down, considerably more than the other knight, who requires 4 stars.

This must be what it's like to design bosses for Monster Hunter.

You can't beat good games criticism
It's been a whole year since I joined Bluesky and started spreading the good word of fishing minigames! I'll be honest, I was expecting only a few followers, but just a couple of days ago I managed to break 1.6k! Thank you to everyone who has supported me in this past year! #fishing #fishingminigame
