FYI for fellow narrative designers/game writers: the studio in question is Sentona Games and it’s my understanding they are currently interviewing to replace me. Be very careful with them. They were very nice to me and easy to work with right up until I needed the money I was promised.

Once again, my website is taking almost a minute to load because some dipshit AI company thinks it's their right to scrape my data. Man, this is exhausting.

It’s taken ten long months but I finally have a new UI job after getting laid off last year. I start Monday and I’m so excited to get back to it after all this time. Thank you to everyone who has helped me; you know who you are and I love you all. 💖

one of the saddest things about video games using generative AI for bulk environmental decals and posters and stuff is they’re such cool opportunities to expand lore and sneak in jokes and leaving a computer to spit out generic malformed gibberish just smacks of not giving a shit

The fucking head of fucking XBox Graphics used a fucking "AI" slop image to hire new engineers but couldn't tell that the fucking screen on the fucking monitor is facing backwards.

Linked In post from Mike Matsel, Principle Development Lead, XBox Graphics:

"The XBox Graphics team is hiring folks with experience with device drivers, GPU performance, or related validation or engineering system experience. If the positions are closed and you want to apply, please message me!"

And below it is an "AI" slop that reads in white on green "XBOX GRAPHICS IS HIRING" and an image of a woman in a green sweater wearing earpods typing on a computer, except the "AI" has put the screen on the back of the monitor.

To anyone being hit by layoffs today, It's not you. It's them. It isn't your fault. It's theirs. You didn't do anything wrong. They did. They fucked up. Not you.

Remember as you are watching your friends and colleagues get unceremoniously laid off today that last year Microsoft posted a 17% increase in profits in 2024 to $171 BILLION dollars. They do not now or ever need to lay off a single person.

genuinely no words, my manager is deactivated before anyone could say anything. How anyone expects games to be made under the constant fear of being made redundant is beyond me.

How in the fuck has Pokemon TCG Pocket let people have up to 99 friends and then not put in a search feature when selecting who you’re trading with 😭
