It is time that the game buying public accepted that all game development studios are headed up by a lazy man who can’t be arsed to go get his morning coffee. It is the new normal. The question is not “am I comfortable buying games by a sleepy man?”, the question is “am I, the consumer, wrong?”

What has happened to Maya Imamori sucks, and the Japanese tabloid journalists doing and perpetuating this crap should all be ashamed of themselves.
Maya was easily the best actor on No. 1 Sentai Gozyuger, and the show will be inexorably worse without her in it. I hope she finds a new agency soon.

We're working on Nothing's Ever Really Dead, a point-and-click adventure game where you and the ghost of your best friend solve the murder of your best friend. It's a cyberpunk comedy!

Look, it’s really straightforward to get a publisher as a new name indie in 2025. Simply do 95% of the work making and marketing your game, and if your metrics are trending towards almost certain success, a publisher will swoop in to promise the remaining 5%, deliver 3%, and collect 75%

Needing multiple streams of income to stay afloat is a societal failure not a personal one. You should be able to afford a comfortable lifestyle with one job. You are not lazy.

Genuinely think Psygnosis IP being sat on by Sony for 30 years has been such a blow for UK gaming culture. Whatever you think of them their games were hugely important and successful and most of them just vanished. Even Lemmings ffs and that's a game even my mum still talks about

Limited Run Games has now fixed the game breaking bug in their rerelease of GEX 2 and 3 that made you listen to Dana Gould “do comedy”

every UK economic policy is like "we must defund the arts (massive, we're a global leader, generates vast amounts in tourism) and pump that money into tech (we're bottom of the barrel, basically just cheap outsourcing because wages are a fraction of America) or fishing and steel (employs 11 people)"
