the scale of the damage ubisoft has done to itself this year is truly staggering

But make no mistake: layoffs, as opposed to games, are the most notable thing coming out of Ubisoft these days. The company started its year with cuts at Star Wars Outlaws studio Massive Entertainment and the closure of Assassin's Creed: Rebellion developer Ubisoft Halifax—the latter of which had just unionized—and never really let up. The reaper’s scythe has also hit, among others, Ubisoft Barcelona (which also worked on Resynced), Ubisoft Paris, Ubisoft Red Storm, Ubisoft Winnipeg, and Ubisoft Belgrade.

The near-constant bloodletting is in service of an increasingly convoluted restructuring program that has seen the publisher’s dwindling collection of studios divided into “creative houses” focused on specific genres and series—one of many byproducts of a $1.25 billion bailout from Tencent that kept the flailing Guillemot family in charge of the business it's clearly no longer fit to run. Another byproduct? Plans to cut Ubisoft’s costs by €200 million before March 2028. In response to the chaos, workers have organized large-scale strikes and other actions. But so far they’ve only managed to gum up the gears of Ubisoft’s layoff machine, not grind it to a halt.

I’ll always be grateful that I had the option to transition and I know as a public figure I must be helping people to see what a positive thing it can be. But I’m also having to fight through the parts where people are attacking me in ways they never have before because this door is now open.

for the record what i love most about 40k is that it was clearly created by a bunch of british nerds in the 80s that hated margaret thatcher. that's what makes it good.

No joke. I think this is the most important video I have ever seen about mobile games. This guy breaks down how this game psychologically profiles you, and makes the game harder or easier in order to show you ads

A thing I think about a lot is how directly this stuff is descended from casino customer-tracking apps as they were emerging in the 90s. Addiction By Design covers this in a chapter - casinos harvest data on videoslot players and then measure exactly where their "Frustration point" is on losses.

To see a billionaire get ruined by his own “line go up” hubris should be a defining moment of the century, destroying the mythos that billionaires are smarter and more worthy than the rest of is.

I do wish more games would let players fail immediately and learn it is not the end of the world, rather than putting up successively clunky guardrails to prevent failure at all I think often of dying in my first 2 minutes of playing Disco Elysium and instantly knowing the game would be great

"this wouldn't have existed without AI anyway, it's not taking away any potential jobs or opportunities" if you do not have the willingness or drive to make something without AI, then it shouldn't exist AI is built off of stolen labor. Want art? Do or fund the labor.

The doctor who claimed that vaccines cause autism lost his medical license for faking for the study. But his lies and the damage he did to public health persist long after his paper was pulled. This is why science communication is so difficult; all it takes is one grifter.
