I adore the work and advocacy of Larian, and wish it extended to respecting and refining the craft used in *all* of their processes, rather than selectively eroding them with AI--especially because it's those refined processes that have produced the games so many loved over their last three titles.

The next two weeks are going to be thick with the most putrid coverage and discourse we’ve ever had to wade through as a nation. Get the facts and then tune out and log off if you must. You are under no obligation to drink the poison.
The shittest Australians you can think of are touching themselves right now. They've got engagement brain. They're thinking about posts, snap rallies and their 'brand'. They're hoping they can get a Cronulla going and hurt a bunch of random innocents while the engagement is still fresh.

That’s PAX Aus Day 2 done for Team Gamer. A massive thank you to @barmearme.bsky.social and everyone in the Kirip Room for their trust — it’s scary having the ABC ask you for an interview and we’re grateful so many First Nations devs stepped up to chat.
