The tragic paradox of modern gaming discourse: most active participants don't understand that piling up on new studios which made something fairly generic or not to their taste (like Highguard) won't fix their problem and result in better games.
The outcome is MUCH worse.

"I just want to catch a fish, drive my truck, drink my beer" well I just want to drink intensely resonant blood, dominate my foes, hear the lamentation of their ghouls, and claim praxis in my domain, but you don't hear me complaining

Adobe's discontinuation of Animate isn't only a hit towards animation artists, it's also a strong pivot towards AI and a warning: any of their hands-on features we use daily in our creative work may get discontinued any day and replaced by genAI features.
Learning alternatives is crucial right now.

i completed 69+3 games in 2025, so here’s 81 reviews
Man. 2025, huh? I had some pretty big, bad things happen, which earned me a lot of burnout. My health is deteriorating, and I can’t afford…

Another warning re: Pinterest: it used to be pretty on point with genAI badges, but not anymore. A lot of obvious AI isn't marked, while I've seen some older VTES art with AI badge. No option to report it.
Artists, your work can be marked as AI by Pinterest and displayed that way to thousands.

Few months ago, as a response to the frequent complaints on genAI, Pinterest added an option to opt out of seeing AI-generated content. This option is now gone; instead, you can edit your "GenAI interests."
Despite turning off everything, my feed is now filled with AI slop. (1/3)

There's apparently people out there thinking Cryaotic came back under the name "TakingBack2007" or something on YouTube or maybe twitch.... But like... I can fucking assure you that's not Cry, lol.
Absolutely insane people would think that and push that rumor, super gross.

Just did the training tutorial in Highguard, damn that's a fun concept for a game, but it feels like one of those games that would be miserable with randoms. Gotta have a team to play with. Wish there were bot matches to get through the proper loop multiple times.

new song I haven't heard shuffles in, really good vibe, totally enjoying it, vocal comes in, oooh wait, it's arctic monkeys? huh, haven't liked anything from them in a while, maybe it's time to change my mind?
then, lyrics kick in.
"ten years later, it's been a decade"
