Los juegos en tono comedia siempre me entran bien, y este con magical girls a las que les pasan cosas por culpa del club de teatro me sentó de maravilla. Cortito y al pie, con combates interesantes que no son de spamear A
This Way Madness Lies is a great game and barely anybody bought it. It should be played by more people. If everybody here on @bsky.app banded together and bought a Steam copy and played it, well, that'd be a miracle and I would be forever grateful.

This is something that's been really bothering me lately with games. It's not just an aesthetic issue, it's also genuinely harder to read text if it's too wide, so I made this (little sloppy) quick guide to show what I mean.

No, no viviremos igual con esta gente.

Reino Unido lo demuestra.

Ya se están preparando para seguir el camino de allí y de EE. UU., para lo que nos espera en cuanto toquen poder. Bueno, el ejecutivo. El judicial ya lo tienen.

Y una tiene miedo, sí, pero también mucha rabia.

No dejo de darle vueltas a esta parte de la nota de prensa. Es que es vergonzoso hasta para las Magistradas que emitirán sus votos particulares. Lo de que no tengan la sentencia redactada, pues nada, la guinda.

Esto es una vergüenza sin precedentes en la historia de nuestra democracia. La derecha española tiene secuestrada la justicia y acaban de condenar a un fiscal general sin una sola prueba. Nuestro estado de derecho es una puta broma.
El Supremo condena al fiscal general a dos años de inhabilitación por la filtración del correo de la pareja de Ayuso
La Sala de lo Penal, con dos votos en contra, considera probado que Álvaro García Ortiz participó en la filtración y le condena por un delito de revelación de secretos a pagar una multa de 7.200 euros...

Rebecca Heineman's last message was for people to look up her departed partner, Jennell Jaquays.

Jaquays was so influent to tabletop RPGs that "Jaquaysing" became a verb for designing complex, non-linear dungeons.

@nickoten.bsky.social wrote a great article on her:

(This is a slightly cleaned up version of my two Bluesky threads on Jennell Jaquays, preserved in a hopefully easier to read format. Thank Amanda P for reminding me that having these things stored …

One of the strangest aspects of aging that they don't warn you about is watching as history gets rewritten right in front of your face and people 20 years younger than you confidently tell you about something you lived through and get it completely wrong.

one function of capitalism is to funnel these types into positions of power, because if competent & kind people get into power they start taking from the rich and giving to the poor. capitalist leaders must be either evil or ignorant or both, only by mistake does anyone else get near power
What if we could have leaders who aren't either evil monsters or spineless weenies

We don’t use generative AI at Strange Scaffold and I can confirm that a *lot* of other studios are not—whether indie or AAA.

Get outta here with this normalization bullshit.

sort of incredible to read a review that doesn't just made a vague nod at AI being bad, but actively reckons with the ways in which falling obsessively to AI usage actively obliterates the artistic intent and integrity of the work you've made.

Bluesky will hate me for saying this, but sometimes you have to distinguish between when a consumer boycott or buyer shaming is effective vs when other means that target the wider public, labor, and state would be more effective.

Arc Raiders is already a multi-million seller that uses GenAI.
Not to be the fun police but I do hope people know that Arc Raiders does use generative AI for voice acting, and by supporting the game you're letting higher-ups know that this is an okay practice.

They try to downplay this on the Steam store page by describing the AI usage as vaguely as possible.

Something worth noting: Rockstar is leaning HEAVILY on the excuse that the unionising employees were "leaking private company information"

They want people to assume this means game info or assets.

But I will bet you CASH MONEY this translates to:

'they were comparing salaries and work contracts"

Geoff is an embodiment of everything bad with the industry and his business is exactly the same

Greedy, shady and always putting corporations above actual people making games
perhaps the most egregious thing that happened with the Future Class was when The Game Awards took money from Old Spice in the name of the FC & simply... pocketed it

it wasn't used to fund Future Class initiatives, it wasn't used to help lift marginalised developers

they just profited from us

It's cool how we keep proving over and over and over again that there's a significant market for narrative-heavy, character-driven, single-player experiences in video games and publishers just categorically refuse to believe us
