Rolled credits on Trails in the Sky ch1. Much like many anime, I can say it's a great game, but with a big *. In this case the * is a classic "the protagonist romances her own brother"

man it's almost crazy how much better Final Fantasy Adventure is than Secret of Mana, I played the former and had big expectations for the latter and so far have been very let down.

Thinking about Satoru Iwata today, for some reason.

If we reduce the number of employees for better short-term financial results, employee morale will decrease, nd I sincerely doubt employees who fear that they may be laid off will be ble to develop software titles that could impress people around the world.

I can't get over how good the animation is for Witch Hat Atelier episode 5. Every bit of this show has been so worth the production delay. It's not an easy manga artistically to adapt but they're doing an amazing job I'm so happy.

I was asked to give my thoughts on generative AI usage in games - here they are!

From the article:
"I think that until the bubble bursts, AI will be used by quite a few game companies, and perhaps even beyond the bubble," says Brandon Sheffield of Necrosoft Games, which released the RPG Demonschool last year. "Look, I am not a fool – I understand that AI has some uses. Primary among those being the devaluing of work, the cheapening of labour, the laying off of creatives, and the generation of busywork for humans to fix whatever AI generates."

"It's also useful for burning through water, raising the prices of RAM and chipsets globally, and poisoning anyone near the data centres that run them. So there are a lot of use cases for AI. From spurring on the death of the creative endeavour to dissolving our economy, AI is absolutely gangbusters at what it does. We don't use it in our studio though."

Screenshot of what's apparently supposed to be a "git flow" chart from Microsoft learning materials.

It's full of bizarre spelling errors and fucked up diagram elements that make it pretty clear the thing was AI generated.

I've learned that I've abbreviated "etcetera" incorrectly my whole life. I have erroneously written "ect." on every personal and professional correspondence my whole life. No one has ever corrected me. My closest friends have watched silently as I portray the fool for their sick enjoyment for years.

🇬🇧✊🌀 Ubisoft : enough is enough! Faced with the arbitrary decision of the CEO who doesn’t even dare talking to employees anymore, unions are calling for a strike on February 10th, 11th and 12th.

Ubisoft is no more, long live Ubisoft!

On January 21, 2026, Yves Guillemot announced the end of remote work, closure of several studios, cancellation of projects, and a new 200€ million “cost-cutting” plan. We were informed of this at the same time as the press — as none of these changes had been discussed during the mandatory consultations with the works councils a few days earlier! On January 26, 2026, management announced the implementation of a voluntary departure plan that will affect 200 people at Ubisoft’s headquarters.

We are promised autonomy for « Creative Houses », but what about autonomy for employees? We have been negotiating for over a year on remote work policy, sometimes under difficult conditions. An agreement has been in place since September in some studios. Trampled underfoot!

We are told about responsibilities, but those who wield this word so easily do not take any responsibility for the consequences of their catastrophic management.

We are not fooled: rather than taking financial responsibility for layoffs, they prefer to push us out by making our working conditions unbearable. It’s outrageous.

It is because we love Ubisoft that this situation revolts us. Ubisoft’s unions are calling for a massive international strike by all Ubisoft employees on the 10th, 11th and 12th of February 2026.

NO
to their anti-remote-work obsession
to “cost-cutting” plans on employees’ backs
to top-down decisions
to coercive control on our working conditions

YES
to our leaders truly taking their responsibilities
to management’s duty of sincerity in the face of its failings

It is time for our management to understand that they cannot do whatever they want, whether with public money or the work of hundreds of people!

Without us, Ubisoft would never have conquered and transformed video games as it has. WE ARE UBISOFT.
