If as a developer/publisher you want to buy into AI gen for development, alright -- but if the result of using it is just your game feeling like you took a bunch of really shitty shortcuts, it can only hurt you and clearly isn't the future you think it is
I shouldn't have to write a lengthy critique of the use of genAI while discussing a series that, historically, has celebrated art & music. Do not buy Let It Die: Inferno, or realistically, any game that uses generative AI. Our review: www.rpgsite.net/review/19037...

If you’re curious about how our campaign livestream-fundraising strategy is going, @nathangrayson.bsky.social did a FANTASTIC deep dive.

Especially appreciate him giving my producer, @ashadotb.bsky.social, the credit she deserves.
Instead of relying on wealthy donors, congressional candidate @katmabu.bsky.social is using a Twitch stream to raise money – and fight a federal indictment

Honestly Expedition 33 might be the most gorgeous game I seen. It's a crime there's no proper photo mode or even a way to take screenshots without 'Pause' popping up in the middle each time.

The thing about fansubs is regardless of anything else that may be going on, ultimately fansubs are made by someone who *really cares about what they're making*. That actually was true at one time at Crunchyroll. It is not true now.

The Gintama dub is actually pretty nicely voiced, but CR what in the world is the point if you don't subtitle things like the thought bubbles and Elizabeth's signs when the series is heavy on that???

Was skeptical with the first episodes but enjoying the Gnosia anime a lot. Pleasantly surprised they just now finished introducing the cast seven episodes in.

Jennifer English realizing she's a lesbian and falling in love with one of her mocap directors (Aliona Baranova) over the course of making BG3 and seeing all the queer folks embracing Shadowheart and the impact the game had is genuinely one of the best stories in game production in a long time
Congrats to Jennifer English for winning the Best Lead Performer award at the 2025 #GoldenJoystickAwards!

And her acceptance speech about queer joy was a love letter to @aliona.bsky.social 🥹🌈

On this Trans Day of Remembrance, we remember the bright and courageous trans people whose lives were stolen by hatred. Their absence is felt across our city.

We will honor them by building a New York where every trans person can live safely, fully and freely.

I did not realize Steins;Gate was getting yet another remake.

I enjoyed it but it was a very neatly tied up story. They gotta let it rest...

Oh I wasn't expecting Expedition 33 to have a world map. It kinda reminds me of PS2 gen RPGs like Tales.

Starting Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 and is it just me or is the game in dire need of a bigger font size?

It's interesting but things like the pop-up boxes are so tiny...

Sonic Adventure 2 might actually be the most early 2000s game of all time.

Like if you want a time capsule for the gaming and pop culture trends of that era. That game is it.
