"Rowling will undoubtedly receive substantial royalties from the Fortnite skins… That money will likely be funneled into her hate campaign against trans people.

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.

NEW: For the last seven weeks, Naughty Dog has enacted mandatory overtime for staff to finish an internal demo of their next game, Intergalactic. The game won't be out until 2027, leaving some staff wondering: If they're crunching now, what will next year be like? www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

A lot of people missed this. Jagex CEO Jon Bellamy seemed to double down on RuneScape’s muted approach to Pride in 2025, hinting he’d make a similar decision again if it’s still controversial to support LGBTQ rights in 2026

Gamers I'll be real, with Hogwarts Legacy free on Epic again please just don't play it.

I quit Jontron and Disturbed, both cornerstones of my teenage years, cuz they ended up being pieces of shit.

Trying to justify giving any attention to Joanne is just sad at this point.

Please bear this in mind if you consider grabbing Hogwarts Legacy for free, thinking that you can accept/play it without it now doing harm. It's free to you but comes with a cost elsewhere.
Since Polygon is leaving it out of the headline: Epic Games partnered with The Game Awards to put money into the pocket of a bigot who uses her wealth to further the genocide of trans people through lawsuits and legislation. Every 'free' game gives money directly to JKR, and they are complicit.

28. Laika: Aged Through Blood

Extremely challenging "motorvania" where you play as a coyote biker mom killing fascist birds, the controls are a little tough to get used to, but stick with it and you'll be pulling off stunts in no time. A harrowing story and truly one of the best soundtracks ever.

It says a lot that AI “artists” are so creatively bankrupt they think writing prompts is a difficult, arduous task.

You realize coming up with a prompt is what a real artist would call “having an idea,” right?

It took them weeks of sleepless nights to have some basic thoughts.

Kudos for these women for standing up and doing the right thing but they're trying to ban trans women from e-sports now? Absolutely ridiculous.

I'm begging any artists still using Twitter claiming it's integral to their work to just leave. It's been revealed the site works off a made up "credit score" from hell and punishes you for posting like a normal human being.

Abandon Twitter for good. It's time. It's been time.

I love video games, but every time I see a “Gamer“ screaming about games being “Woke” or attacking minorities in games as “DEI” I feel ashamed of the people I share this hobby with.

Grow the fuck up or fall in a hole.

I feel real bad for Grasshopper Manufacture. There's the Lollipop Chainsaw remake whose developer says there'll be "no DEI" in the game. Then there's the Let it Die sequel that's jammed up with AI. They have nothing to do with/no input on either game. This is what happens when you don't own your IP!

The way most musicians distribute to streaming services is through a distributor that lets you literally check a box to add a new service. So if the music has been pushed to one service, it's on them all. In fact, the streaming service that more musicians intentionally avoid is Spotify!!
There's several services to transfer your entire library and I've heard it is easier than expected. Just a few:

Spotify will keep raising prices and is not going to last forever with how they're running their business, so I think this is actually proactive.
