Not sure what are the chances of people on Bluesky are playing #twistedwonderland or #ensemblestars but I guess putting up my player IDs wouldn’t hurt

(And in case anyone’s wondering: yes, those are my actual ranking numbers in EnStars. Getting old is mandatory, being mature is optional 😛)
How am I still in first place, normally if I get that high on the leaderboard I’m usually knocked off relatively quick

where are the leviathans who have max copies of Kanata during the Stella Maris event

F for the Rose Parade participants and the campers along the parade route

I wonder if rain on the new year works the same as rain for Chinese New Year…

Executives are like very young children. Pretend to pull a coin from behind their ear, tell them it’s magic, and watch them become mystified.

Except children grow out of it. Executives invest billions into every hole they’re told is magic and expect money to come squirting out.

Thanks for reminding me why I had to re-wishlist 17 games earlier this year because of a fucking disrespectful prick, Steam.

If this wasn’t the straw that broke the relationship, it was certainly one of the factors.

Latest from me at The Guardian!

Chatting with @videogameworkers.bsky.social at their protest outside The Game Awards. ✊
Before the Game Awards in LA last week, a US video game workers union turned up to protest. "Anyone who works in the games industry can identify that our art form is being sold for parts to make a few people a lot of money." @alyssamerc.bsky.social reports

Outside the lavish event, workers called out the ‘greed’ in the industry that has left games ‘being sold for parts to make a few people a lot of money’

Everyone loves AI so much that companies have to quietly smuggle it into our lives and hope nobody notices.

That’s definitely what popularity looks like!

I’ll say this though - I’ve *almost* more respect for the ones who say the quiet part out loud. The “DEI” smokescreen is the sniveling coward’s way of saying you hate anyone who isn’t a white cishet man.

Sick of the same old shit from little bitches who are too afraid to say what they mean.

These miserable cunts whine about stuff being “too political” yet here they are again, outrage touring their way to another game that has nothing to do with them, writing inane and stupid drivel to shove their politics down everyone’s throat.

They need to make EVERY game about them.

This is fucking pathetic on Steam’s part. There’s no way in hell “has muslims” should be approved as criticism, and the DEI whining is the same hateful sentiment with a flimsy cover draped on.

I can only assume Valve *agrees* with the bigotry if it’s gonna keep claiming such nerdzi shit is valid.
We had an Overwhelmingly Positive score on Steam, then these two reviews rolled in

Why does Valve allow this?

I’d put more EOY infographics but there’s only so much room in that meme so Spotify Wrapped gets to be the representation of why I go full Scrooge on these things

A truly great idea. 10,000 ethical assets freely available.

There’s no excuse for resorting to so-called AI with this and the *many* other assets you can use without resorting to laundered plagiarism.

Support real artists, not con artists.
More coverage of our 10,000 Game Assets Pack, this time on Dexerto. We really do appreciate all the support everyone is giving this - basically it makes the last year of working on it full time worthwhile & spurs us on to create more assets!! www.dexerto.com/gaming/indie... #gamedev #indiedev

Is it too much to ask for a December to not be inundated with all these end-of-year infographic statistics 🙄😒

Such a fucking plague during the holidays…

I thought the purpose of the test alert was for this crap; I expected a PSA notification would be for something like a gas leak or maybe a freeway shutdown. 😡

The "let them eat cake" vibes of TGAs this year are off the charts
I asked about Game Awards press tickets in October. Got an email yesterday encouraging me to buy my own, as there were no spares.

Time to stock up on popcorn, I’m not sure if November 2026 is big enough for GTA6 and Call of Duty 2026 🍿

Don’t kid yourself, of course there’s going to be a new CoD title out next November

(They’re totally trying to bury the story about those Rockstar employees trying to unionize, I tell ya)

This layoff is not related to Square Enix saying earlier today that it is looking to automate QA testing with generative AI — this is consolidating publishing, marketing, sales, and other business operations from the US and Europe to Japan
