I went to meet the 'Rockstar 31', the developers who were suddenly fired from their work on GTA 6 for what the studio has described as gross misconduct.

That's not what the workers call it though. They have another couple of words they prefer to use: union busting.

games people, if you could talk to a game developer about their craft for an hour, who would it be, and what would you ask them about?

Bracketing that they absolutely failed here. And bracketing that such a failure reflects a dearth of discipline, understanding, and acumen...

They just don't got the juice, man. Absolutely sauceless leadership.
CNN: Was the shutdown worth it?

HAKEEM JEFFRIES: We have waged a battle on behalf of the American people.

CNN: But you didn't get what you want.

JEFFRIES: At the end of the day, the fight lives on.

I think hardware sales might've gone differently for Xbox if they could've figured out whatever design flaw led to this unfortunate situation.

The debate around using AI/ML/text-to-speech for voicework for games is fascinating because it's one of the only times I can see in gaming where a genuine, decades-long design / production problem is meeting a justifiably sensitive topic within games culture at perhaps the worst possible time.

Really enjoying The Séance of Blake Manor, an Irish folk horror detective game that does a ton of things really well. If you liked Obra Dinn or the Golden Idol games you should check it out.

Really enjoying my time with Tavern Keeper from @greenheartgames.bsky.social.

High production management / building game from an indie studio in Australia. Loads of fun, and a surprising amount of content given its an early access release.

this is probably the most bizarre request for help I've had in an online game.

this guy had a quest to deal damage to other raiders, and instead of just attacking them, he came prepped with healing items and asked me to take some bullets for him.

This is a landslide. The last NYC mayoral candidate to clear 1 million votes was John Lindsay—over 50 years ago. It will be dismissed by pundits saying it can only happen in New York. That's garbage. Think pledging to freeze rent and offer childcare won't resonate in Nevada? Wisconsin? Texas?

Aww thanks Steam community. Maybe I should do more of these
