Kinda sucks that I can't activate a sub promotion on my Twitch channel for my 9 year streamiversary tomorrow because there's some sort of sitewide thing happening at some point.
It would have been nice to have some warning, especially when they all expire in 11 days.

And so my last day at Eurogamer arrives!
Worked out I've written around 3700 articles over the past four years, so thought I'd highlight a few of my favourites.

I do love how YouTube thinks I own the rights to The Game Awards 2023 and gives me the option to request removal of Asmongold and Gamespot videos.
I feel like the system isn't working as well as it should...

With all the discourse around AI and voice actors, I wanted to delve deeper.
Big thanks to all I spoke to, especially David Menkin, Jennifer Hale, Alix Wilton Regan, and Colin Ryan for being so candid.

Today marks my last week at Eurogamer, and my last as a games journalist. Working for Eurogamer was a dream for me, and I'm incredibly proud of the work I've achieved, but the time has come for me to move on in the industry to something new.

Just played and beat Despelote.
Such a charming slice-of-life game set in Ecuador against the backdrop of their 2002 World Cup qualifying campaign.
Really, really enjoyed it.
