Resident Evil VII is about people whose house gets full of mold and they turn into hateful monsters.

Resident Evil VII is about JK Rowling.

It's just so wild to me, shutting down teams that have shipped a game - let alone multiple successful games.

It's gonna be a while before we realize what we've really lost.

How the fuck are devs supposed to survive if making a successful, beloved live service game isn’t enough to keep them employed

My reminder that if Back to the Future came out today, the 90s ska revival would be the hot new music trend that Marty discovered the kids weren't quite ready for.

don't hate-watch it, don't go see it to "see what it's like"

if we keep rewarding these cheap films, made to circumvent unionized feature animators by exploiting non-unionized vfx animators- many of which ARE feature animators too- they're just going to make more, let's learn from Disney okay

When we unionized a few years ago, a lot of peanut gallery types on social media wanted to tell me it would be the end of Wired.

Hope it’s now clear (thanks mostly to our insanely talented and hardworking politics team) that it does not work that way.

Unions are good.

Not so long ago, racists put a pause of being so public with their racism. But Donald Trump has given them license to be more open again.

video game journalism is like 27 people right now. if you're still complaining about it you're no different to an 18th century farmer blaming vampires for an unremarkable crop yield

Gaza's population was 2.3 million when Israel's genocide started. The US president is suggesting Israel continue the ethnic cleansing of all survivors that remain - which he says is 1.5 million Palestinians. Can anybody do the math on that because I'm hearing the US president say 800K were massacred

I've cancelled my talk at GDC and my flights

I really hate to put this on the organizers so late in the process, who have been so kind to me, but the trump administration is starting to directly erase and target minority groups I'm in, and I just can't handle the stress of going. I'm sorry

It is the position of the administration that a post saying β€œFree Palestine” or talking about diversity should ruin your life, but a post calling to hate people from India should not. That’s their moral sensibility. Nazi scum.

Gutting USAID threatens billions of dollars for U.S. farms, businesses U.S. businesses that sold goods and services to USAID are in limbo, including American farms dealing in rice, wheat and soybeans.

US farmers sold $2 billion of food to USAID. Not any more.

- US farmers provided 41% of food delivered by USAID
- $340M of purchases/shipments are now paused. Over 680,000 tonnes.
- Food stranded in Houston
- Aid stopped in transit.

The world’s poor starving, food rotting & US farmers screwed.

To be clear: fuck Trump, but pretending Harris would've not exterminated and razed Gaza to the ground is pretending that very extermination and razing wasn't a Democrat initiative and effort.

The most leftist thing about me: I do not care about immigration. I think it’s a nonissue. I care a LOT about how people are treated once they’re here, but not how they got here.
Legal, illegal, I do not care. 1/2

i like games where instead of having colored keys and progression gated by story, you have a hammer, a long stick, and two charges of plastic explosive to solve every problem
