Hi, I'm the vocal director for Star Wars Galactic Racer. My office has a Huttese dictionary, a mountain of cocaine, and a line out of the door of the loudest theater kids we could find. I hope you like the result!

I don't think the issue with Black Desert Offline is a day one patch--the issue is its total lack of meaning, lack of intent or meaningful story. It's a game with no connective tissue and just an endless list of things to do.

all these people know is how to steal. every creative part of their process is based entirely on ripping off shit from the backs others. they come in with half a mind and no plan, looking to solve a problem already solved better tenfold, shit on it, and take all the credit

Like I can't stop hearing that Dan Olson NFT bit running through my head: What they have built sucks, but even if it did everything they wanted it to and it they reshaped society in the image they're proposing it's *still* an awful nightmare.

I get what you're saying, and I've just been unfollowing the artists in question, but the arrows in quivers thing doesn't really matter. If they had no actual evidence they'd just make something up. Lack of proof has never deterred bigots.

You should be asking why Rockstar gets to do this and doesn't run into any issues with payment processors, while the rest of anyone drawing or writing "explicit content" on any platform have so much trouble getting paid

part of me is like maybe i shouldnt instantly block the moots who drew the terf trend, maybe if i give them time they will delete it and apologise but. nah. they had enough fucking time to think while they were drawing it. if they cared they wouldn't have done it in the first place.

post about the terf wizard art trend broke containment to other sites. i don't have the energy to deal with all that so i'm gonna leave it at this: if you draw HP fanart, you are supporting JKR and ignoring the damage that she has done to trans people, and i do not consider you an ally. fuck off.

Saying you can threaten trans people with camps? That’s fine. Telling the hard of trust and safety that there’s been an uptick in this behavior and telling him he’s to blame? Verboten, you’re suspended. Fuck this platform.

Are they threatening trans users directly?
No. Trans folks in the US have been targeted repeatedly. That's awful and you have my sympathy.
Within the context of a single post we wouldn't consider it a direct threat or targeting a protected category. le send trans folks to concentration camps.

Like NFTs right? GenAI is an expensive toy with almost no real use case for the average person and when the novelty wears off it's going to die. People hate data centers poisoning their towns, they hate losing their jobs, and they hate the tech bros evangelizing to them about how this is the future.

microsoft is in full damage control mode following last week's layoffs. its main strategy so far? namedrop sequels to popular series at every turn. but despite what execs like asha sharma might want you to think, those series were made by people, and now they'll never be the same

Todd Howard just shared plans for the Fallout, The Elder Scrolls, and Starfield franchises. These worlds have earned a special place with hundreds of millions of people over many years. I'm looking forward to what's next, including the partnership with Obsidian on a new Fallout game and closer collaboration with ZeniMax Online Studios on The Elder Scrolls. The achievements of these franchises are remarkable: The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim has crossed 65 million units sold, becoming one of the 10 best-selling games of all time, Fallout 4 has also crossed 35 million units sold, joining the top 25, and Starfield will soon reach over 1 billion hours played.
This statement sucks so bad that it makes my blood boil. Look what the franchises did, all by themselves! Look what they’ve accomplished, of their own volition, thanks to their own intrinsic goodness! So many big numbers, which translate to giant heaps of cash in the bank accounts of execs and shareholders! Never mind the people who spent decades painstakingly crafting the many games, stories, and other creative endeavors that corporate ghouls now so happily flatten into “franchises,” erasing themes, meaning, and human beings in favor of empty iconography.

This is how the people running the show at Xbox—and countless companies besides—view games, not to mention everything else in their robotic, colorless lives. Numbers and lines trending ever upward. Fuel for platitudes and faux-inspirational nonsense directed at the LinkedIn hivemind, of which they all paradoxically believe they’re the main character. Another stepping stone toward the next bigger, better thing. No ultimate destination, no camaraderie, no soul. Just an endless ladder that leads to the void regardless of which way you climb.
