I love all of this. The entire industry, and the way people think about games, needs to change.
Sat down for a lovely chat with @clert.bsky.social over @eurogamer.bsky.social To talk about my games and how I'd like to keep making and improving them sustainably. To step away from the launch, meme and hype driven madness that has taken root in games.

What if all this money, hoarded and funneled between stupidly rich people busy pissing away our world for the vague promise of a line going up. What if it was just... taken from them. Every single cent.
And used for actual good. To help everyone.

Based on analysis of years of revenues, losses and funding, since 2023, OpenAI has taken in $28.6bn in cash and had $13.7bn in losses.
However, reports say OpenAI ended 1H 2025 with $9.6bn in cash - suggesting OpenAI's losses are billions higher than reported.

You don't need me to tell you this is yet more good money being burned after bad. But as someone who's worked with that QA team, I'll say they're unsung heroes who truly play a huge role in maintaining SE's reputation for high quality locs and to attempt to replace them with AI is deeply insulting.

Unfortunately I suspect as union activity gains momentum and popular support in this broken industry we will continue to see studios ramp up their union busting efforts.
Be smart: practice good infosec, read up on typical union-busting tactics, and most importantly: don’t let them scare you.

Att barnen går och pantar burkar för att köpa frukt till fruktstunden känns kanske inte som något man borde göra reklam för som vinstdrivande förskolekoncern. I det här fallet Edukatus (tidigare Thorengruppen).
