After about a week spent afk hunting for a shiny Fennekin, she finally showed up AND had the good graces to be an Alpha too💖

Nice to see that some outlets are giving Arc Raiders the criticism it deserves.

Genuinely laughable that it's set in a world where evil machines replace humans, then uses AI voices instead of human voice actors for, what seems to be, all of its dialogue.

Arc Raiders review - a smartly designed extraction shooter marred by one inexcusable decision
Rich combat and an unusually friendly community make Arc Raiders an cracking extraction shooter, but Embark Studios' continued use of AI voices is inexcusable.

I've only just hit the actual gameplay of Yakuza 6, how have I already teared up on two separate occasions 🥲

Just finished watching the new Frankenstein. Haven't read the novel yet, so I don't know how it compares, but it seems very different to what I know of it.

I'm just curious as to why is Guillermo Del Toro recently obsessed with mystical humanoid freaks? His last 3 movies have focused on them.

No Nut November? More like No Unbeatable November!! 😭😭

(srsly though, I'd rather this than get softlocked mid-playthrough or some shit. I can't imagine this was an easy decision for the team to make, even if it was probably the right one)

Oh that DLC really was just ready to fucking go from launch, wasn't it?

Yeah that's real shitty.

I genuinely hope the rest of this decade is spent watching this useless LLM AI fad crash and burn. Confine its use to detecting medical anomalies, and doing actual good for humanity. End the slop machines.

I literally stopped playing my video game, got up, walked into my office, unlocked my PC, and immediately turned this shit off.

Can companies just stop shoving AI shit down our throats? We don't want it.

So yesterday my mum dropped by with a bunch of my old stuff that she'd found whilst doing a big clear out.

This isn't even close to all of it, but they are some of my favourites.

Turn off Gemini in Google!
It's been turned on by default.

Go to your Drive, click the gear icon, click settings, go to "manage apps" and uncheck that nasty "use by default" box.

Within an hour of getting the shiny charm in Z-A, I found 4 shinies. 3 of them were at the same time. Hunts in this game are kinda silly.

Man I love the Halo series. I can't wait to not play the remake due to Microsoft's comically evil business practises, and insistence on shoving genAI into everything.

Krafton should unveil their AI-Driven fucking off technology, and use it to fuck off.
Krafton (PUBG, Subnautica, Tango Gameworks) says it is now an "AI first" company, with automated work, AI-centric HR, management systems, and workflows, in-game AI, and a full company-wide AI infrastructure.

I've just finished the post-game stuff in Pokémon Legends Z-A, and I'm still conflicted on a lot of the game, as much as I also love it.

To me it feels like the developers were held back in a lot of ways, and tried to scale down to hyper-focus on a more specific idea (new battle system)...

Genuinely thrilled with how my recent Pokémon video's been performing.

Kalos is a severely under-appreciated region, even after Z-A, and it was a lot of fun to go back and explore why that's the case.

Okay I've hit credits in Z-A

The stuff it does well, it does really well. The fan-service elements for myself and the 4 other Kalos lovers is brilliant.

But the corners that were cut are so blatant. The flat boxes for the buildings, the NPC's all standing in the same spot for the whole game...

The choices for new mega evolutions in Legends Z-A feel so specifically tailored to me, and I'm loving them

Of all the new ones I've seen, there's only one that's let me down (it's practically just a colour change)
