Dear game studios: If you use AI imagery for your game's key art, I will never play your game. If you use AI imagery for placeholder assets in your demo, I will never play your game. If you use AI voices for your dialogue, I will never play your game. I rarely swear, but F*CK AI 🚫

The damage Kotick to Blizzard is far beyond what anyone could imagine. Nothing about the allegations were "faked". The environment was toxic everywhere, and not just precious Irvine HQ, and the C-suite let it run its course and enable it for years

Not to stir the pot, but a rumored February State of Play happens to be a month before Bloodborne’s 10th anniversary.
