i am afraid UE engine stuff makes this dream basically impossible, but it would be soooo cool if Epic went belly up from its AI obsession

I've been eating so many crackers lately. I fucking love crackers. *gets momentarily worried about bad faith readings of my posts* If I was a cannibal then I would eat people of all races at rates that are roughly proportional to the makeup of the local population. I wouldn't have a preference.

there are no worthwhile qualities of fraternities, full stop. when they're not busy raping women and defending their rapist members they abuse and kill new members for fun. colleges have proven they cannot be made safe or reformed. the only reasonable policy at this point is banning all of them.

every time they lay off 300 people then go "but it won't affect the game's development"

Shadow of Mordor won in a year that was pretty weak overall, and then Shadow of War was heavily set back by its pay to win loot crate bullshit, not to mention the critical reassessment of its themes and such. At least in my circles, the games have largely been forgotten.

i agree with all the criticisms of the game. but i like it when a guy i beat up gets mad about it, gets stronger, and chases me down. that's cool.

I just want them to sell as much as possible. Sell Blizzard, sell Obsidian, sell all these studios instead of burying them with you in your tomb like some ancient king.
030
Six Dettmar @sixdettmar.bsky.social · 22/09/2026
Like. Make as much money as you can along the way. Ship anything that you can ship in a reasonable amount of time. Milk your current customers for more money. Sell off the studios you can. But the mission objective is "in two years, Xbox should not exist." Microsoft wants OUT.

Six Dettmar @sixdettmar.bsky.social · 22/09/2026
For my part, in the early days of the Asha Sharma era (which I guess we're still in, but let's talk in relative terms), I assumed that the goal was to bring insanely unrealistic "efficiency" to Xbox that would do huge damage to it. That wasn't true. The goal from the start has been to END Xbox.

At what point does the press finally stop writing glowing articles about Asha Sharma doing customer support, making decisions based on Twitter polls, etc. and start acknowledging who she really is: a Microsoft-appointed executioner

thinking about some facts about the early days of Xbox for no reason whatsoever
interview with multiple members of the early xbox project. quote from xbox designer Seamus Blackley: "There were some guys who worked on Xbox early on who called it Coffin Box because they were worried that it would fail and end their career at Microsoft."

Six Dettmar @sixdettmar.bsky.social · 22/09/2026
Seriously though, right now Kojima is spending half the day every day on the phone, talking to his contacts going “hey when Microsoft inevitably dumps us in somewhere between three months to three days from now, can we bring Physint to you?”
040
Six Dettmar @sixdettmar.bsky.social · 22/09/2026
And wouldn’t it be darkly funny if no one will pick it up, except the last place he wants to go. And they say, “ok, we’ll help you finish the game. You’ll have to rename it, though.” Konami presents: Metal Gear Physint.
130
Six Dettmar @sixdettmar.bsky.social · 22/09/2026
I have to disagree with people saying Physint is never coming out. Oh, Microsoft will dump it, no doubt. No shot it ships under them. But Kojima won’t give them the power to shut down the studio, so he’ll just shop it to another publisher.

other than call of duty and wow i genuinely think the smart move is to assume that any other xbox game thats more than a year away is never coming out. ‘mass layoffs and activision taking over halo’ just doesn’t describe how disastrous and destructive microsoft’s actions have been

this whole xbox thing feels like a true emperors no clothes moment. there is so obviously no plan, anything announced yesterday is overruled tomorrow, that even reporting the facts feels laughably insufficient.

Destiny is a cool idea that has literally always been mismanaged. And in fairness, it’s an incredibly hard idea to execute. The closest they’ve come have been moments like Taken King and Forsaken, but those still haven’t actually come close to the concept’s potential.

Six Dettmar @sixdettmar.bsky.social · 21/09/2026
The thing is, as dumb a decision as it was, Bungie didn’t do the vaulting of Destiny 2 because it seemed like such a fun idea. It’s because they had a huge, bone-deep tech problem with the game’s growing size that they couldn’t figure out how to fix. So. How are you fixing that?
