So much incredible talent wasted, just so stupid. If you're looking for some best in class developers I highly recommend you reach out to folks. Heart goes out to all my Night Schooler friends ❤️

I was a Lead Writer at NSS from 2024-early 2025. There's so much I wish I could say, but all I'll say is this: the rank-and-file IC Nightschoolers were some of the most creative, passionate, innovative people I've ever had the pleasure of working with. Hire them. You won't be disappointed.

There is a big sale on Dragon Age, so: ✨DRAGON AGE BUYING GUIDE✨ - DA2 and DAI on Steam will still open up the horrible EA app when launching. - DAO and DAV run natively on Steam. - DAO is best on GOG, which has some needed stabilization fixes. If bought else where, you will NEED to mod DAO.

I spent the last few months talking to over 30 game developers about generative AI. It began as a sort of interview survey but became a pretty comprehensive collection of arguments against the technology altogether. www.gamesradar.com/games/why-so...

Why so many game developers don't want to use generative AI

With credits ranging from Dispatch and Marvel Rivals to Uncharted and Dragon Age, over 30 devs share their thoughts on gen AI

all of the UE6 stuff is really exciting news if your idea of a videogame is turning it into shitty Roblox-core slurry for Fortnite otherwise it's a pretty catastrophic misreading of the room, after indies successfully jumping ship from unity with the promise you actually care about developers

Cam Riach @cameron-riach.bsky.social · 17/06/2026

UE6 announcements are troubling (not even gonna touch the MCP stuff) but this is deeply DEEPLY concerning. To rip out the entire core that made UE4/5 so universally useful and for what? At this point I might as well just learn Godot

even in a world where generative asset tools had significant upsides to production time, it should be clear that the reputational backlash against them makes it absolutely not worth it. in fairness to Valve, their storefront AI disclosure requirement has really forced this issue into the open.

I say this with utmost respect, but Taylor is an absolute tool for saying this privately or publicly. I can say on good authority that it takes 7 to 10 years to develop game development skills to “good enough” to produce commercial game content. 7-10 years plus the cost of a university education.

As some of you are aware, part of Dragon Age day was to thank the DA Devs for all the hard work they put into the series we love so much. This is also the first DA Day where we have no DA team, as they were laid off earlier this year. So let's make an effort to support their new projects!🧵
