Google Docs is usually my go-to for document writing, but what is WITH all the AI? It almost unusable now. The Gemini UI barges in and appears wherever I'm going to type, and there are constant "would you like me to write/re-word this for you?" pop ups... why would you DO this to your own product?

If you want to get into an animated discussion with a game dev, find a game that does certain things really well and others really poorly. If it's just an awesome game all around, that's a short conversation... but this? You can talk for HOURS. To date, that game is still Marvel's Midnight Suns.

It's kind of interesting to watch how many different articles spinning off from the interviews I did during the Kickstarter, where I never spoke at all about Veilguard, can be spun ever so slightly to make it seem like I was speaking about Veilguard. 🤔

I have never joined in on a "save this show!" campaign, but by golly I'm gonna do it this time.

The one good thing about the Kickstarter being over is that I don't need to do any more interviews. Kind of sick of seeing my RPG opinions in print, myself. 😮‍💨

I finished watching Sirens on Netflix, and it seemed like an amusing enough comedy (and Meghann Fahy is a delight, as always) right up until the last episode... which feels like it was written by completely different people altogether? Very odd. Still OK overall, I guess, but what a weird ending.

And now Amazon has cancelled the Wheel of Time. I guess we're not allowed to have anything nice in this particular timeline. 😡

You remember that post that got so much attention, where I suggested that Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 did for JRPG's what BG3 did for CRPG's? Well, someone DID reach out and asked me for details! Read about it here: www.gamesradar.com/games/rpg/ex...

I had the absolute pleasure of chatting to @davidgaider.bsky.social about his new roguelike deckbuilder, Malys, Dragon Age, and even Vampire: The Masquerade. Loads of cool content coming soon, but for now, here's Malys: www.pcgamesn.com/malys/david-...
