Really enjoyed the novella But Not Too Bold by Hache Pueyo. Great gothic horror vibes and the sapphic romance with a humanoid spider is both alluring and disturbing.

A note about the TGAs worth remembering as this Future Class story unfolds: it’s a marketing beat, consumer-facing, and voted on by media/influencers. Developers are, by design, not included or considered in the structure. Which feels bad! www.polygon.com/explained/49...

A lot of people using "don't comply in advance" today
What makes you believe this was a voluntary decision? (Don't comply in advance = don't do this voluntarily)
Also, some of you have suggested "alternate payment processors" as if that's a real thing. It's not.

I've been looking forward to this game for a while and bought it only a few days ago, but have now refunded it. This is extremely disappointing to see, especially from a studio whose work I admire.

The reason generative AI is so popular with wannabe creatives is best illustrated by something every pro writer has encountered: getting pitched an idea by someone saying "You write it and we'll split the profits!" because they think the idea is what has value, not the writing. The opposite is true.
