I really am very grateful to the people I follow who work in game dev for being so open about the state of the industry. It's always been my dream (and still is) to make a living by making games, but working in that nightmare would have destroyed me by now. You guys saved me from that. Thank you.

Guess I'm not on Twitter any more because it force-logged me out and now won't recognise my username. Broken-ass garbage website.

This. LLMs just give you something that has the form of a statistically plausible response to your input. They work on resemblance, not content. That's why they hallucinate. If you ask for an address, they won't (can't) look it up; they'll just give you output that looks like a plausible address.

Haven't played a lot of @civgame.bsky.social yet, but imo people are being unreasonably harsh on it. Every Civ has been a bit rocky at launch, but the ideas in 7 are SPECTACULAR. The ages, civs, crises, city layout, diplomacy, independent powers... Design wise it rates the same as this good boi

Actually the real Gulf of America is what's inside the skulls of Trump supporters.

So many mobile game ads are "look how easy our game is! A drunk monkey could beat this game! But the monkey's standards are too high so the inputs you see here were generated by a brain-damaged goldfish headbutting its tank." I've never figured out how they think that shit's going to make me play.

True story, yesterday I showed this to my partner who has a PhD in Chemistry and I can confirm that it did in fact annoy her.

If I was responsible for coming up with a Devil May Cry spinoff, I can't decide whether I'd call it "Cry, Devil May", "Devil May Laugh", "Devil June Cry", or "Devil McCryingFace"

Americans will literally make up an imaginary guy you're doing better than to get out of feeding or housing the homeless.

- Open D4 for the first time in months - Leave town to kill some shit - Can't cast anything, all spells are greyed out for no apparent reason - "Maybe I have to do this purple quest it's forced me onto before I can play?" - Go to quest - It changes all my skills - Super expensive to spec back WTF

Weird seeing all the people who have been dumping on everything the MCU does for the last 5 years absolutely losing their shit at a fucking Superman trailer, of all things. SUPERMAN. As if he wasn't the single most boring superhero in existence.

Apropos of nothing, just thinking about the French Revolution, where famously they stopped using the guillotine after the first time because once was enough to get their point across and convince the rich assholes oppressing them to see reason and stop screwing everyone over.
