Game that's this good doesn't deserve the bumpy ride it's taking on the way to a sequel, some concerning stuff out there about the new studio direction

A SOUNDTRACK this good definitely doesn't deserve to be taken off of streaming, hopefully it comes on back once some publisher stuff is sorted out
Hi-Fi Rush's Soundtrack Delisted From All Major Streaming Platforms Without Warning (OST still on Steam) www.thegamer.com/hi-fi-rush-s...

also worth noting that the game was removed from PC stores (stores that sell Steam codes) last month. Not sure anyone else noticed at the time

So they're going to do this for one, maybe two games. It'll be full speed ahead until it's 6 months from release and the game is falling apart, at which point they'll pay an insane overtime rate for a QA studio to do it last minute which won't be enough.

This goes into that “deprofessionalization” of the game industry article that went around a few months ago. People who don’t understand the work or care about the value of the people doing the work or honestly even care about quality at all. They just want to not have to pay workers.

I imagined trying to get through bug reports written by an LLM and immediately got an honest to god headache. What do you mean I can’t even go back to the person who wrote it and ask for more details because there isn’t one, but it can still make shit up?

As many have pointed out, Mamdani didn't stand apart from our trans brothers and sisters. He didn't play the "Gee, gosh, it sure is complicated," milquetoast moderate card. And he crushed.

The way forward is together, not over the bodies of our own.
