About 10hrs into Silksong so far and I'm absolutely loving it. Definitely living up to my expectations right now, which is very rare

Matt Turnbull, Executive Producer at Xbox Game Studios Publishing - after the Microsoft layoffs - suggesting on Linkedin that may maybe people who have been let go should turn to AI for help. He seriously thought posting this would be a good idea.
![Post from Matt Turnbull:
These are really challenging times, and if you’re navigating a layoff or even quietly preparing for one, you’re not alone and you don’t have to go it alone.
I know these types of tools engender strong feelings in people, but I'd be remiss in not trying to offer the best advice I can under the circumstances. I’ve been experimenting with ways to use LLM AI tools (like ChatGPT or Copilot) to help reduce the emotional and cognitive load that comes with job loss.
Here are some prompt ideas and use cases that might help if you're feeling overwhelmed:
Career Planning Prompts:
“Act as a career coach. I’ve been laid off from a [role] in the game industry. Help me build a 30-day plan to regroup, research new roles, and start applying without burning out.”
“What kinds of game industry jobs could I pivot to with experience in [Production/Narrative/LiveOps/etc.]?”
Resume & LinkedIn Help
“Here’s my current resume. Give me three tailored versions: one for AAA, one for platform/publishing roles, and one for startup/small studio leadership.”
“Rewrite this resume bullet to highlight impact and metrics.”
“Draft a new LinkedIn ‘About Me’ section that focuses on my leadership style, shipped titles, and vision for game development.”
Networking & Outreach
“Draft a friendly message I can send to old coworkers letting them know I’m exploring new opportunities.”
“Write a warm intro message for reaching out to someone at [studio name] about a job posting.”
Emotional Clarity & Confidence
“I’m struggling with imposter syndrome after being laid off. Can you help me reframe this experience in a way that reminds me what I’m good at?”
No AI tool is a replacement for your voice or your lived experience. But at a time when mental energy is scarce, these tools can help get you unstuck faster, calmer, and with more clarity.
If this helps, feel free to share with others in your network.
Stay kind, stay smart, stay connected.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:qpbuxrel3f3njvjw5rakf532/bafkreiei32dnyvihcdgifb5niw7rf65o2obawz5nschbc4czojo4ecgz4u@jpeg)

Very happy to see Stellar Blade doing well out of the gate on PC. I had my fair share of issues with the game on PS5, but it's a very good game over all and is well worth playing.
I hope this encourages more mobile/mmo studios to branch out in single player games

Leave it to gamers to hype themselves up based on a tiny thing only to get disappointed and mad at developers for not living up to their concocted fantasy. Never change

I really love not having internet. It's so much fun and is not making me go completely insane at all!

Played the Dune beta this weekend for ~5 hour and I really enjoyed it. Didn't have any expectations going into it, other than assuming it would be similar to Conan Exiles. While it definitely is similar, it plays much better.
Hope Funcom can stick the landing on this!

I was already pretty hyped for Death Stranding 2, but after reading a couple of previews and watching some footage my hype level has now left earth. Kojima you son of a bitch

It's amazing to me how many people seemingly forgot that Metaphor came out last year. "Turn based is back" it never went anywhere, you just need to broaden your selection

Reading some impressions of the 0.4.0 update for Stormgate has gotten me very excited to come home and check it out myself later today. Sounds like they hit a home run with this patch, which is great to hear

Super interested to see what Marathon looks like now. Can't deny the visual design is absolutely peak, let's hope the gameplay and mechanics are at the same level.

Norwegian prices for the Switch 2 are now out, and it's 6699NOK, equivalent to $636 or €575. Hell nah

After getting some more information about the Switch 2 (especially the price on games, what the fuck is that shit) I'm not so sure about buying it any more. Norwegian prices aren't even out yet, which makes me extra worried.

I was going to buy a Switch 2 anyway, but an exclusive FROM game sealed the deal. Looks fucking amazing

It's so bizarre to me that people have decided to use ac shadows as this weird hill proclaim their "brutally honest opinions" on.
It's a fairly middle of the road ac game (that I will play the shit out of), not some sort of crossroads in the gaming road brother, relax

Finally got around to playing Mouthwashing.
Good game for sure, but I guess I don't understand why some saw this as an incredible 10/10 masterpiece.
I liked it a lot and it is well worth playing

I'm having a good time in Monster Hunter Wilds so far, but good lord the PC version is just terrible. Blurry-ass image quality, TERRIBLE texture resolution (yes, even with the texture pack on) and the worst performance I've seen in a AAA port in YEARS. Really disappointing, Capcom. Do better
