Bless up

I need this full article thanks

A close up of a man eating his bright pink Man Cereal. Next to it is says "Cereal without the B.S. You don't need a breakfast with bright mascots or sugar bombs. We keep things simple with real fuel for real life"

Just found out this is completely sincere with no hint of irony

I started Blue Prince again like a month ago and got so much further into it than the first run, and yet, I didn't even get anywhere close to the the "final" part of the game. If you were on the fence before, this is an absolute must buy. Treat yo'self. So much deeper than you ever think it is.

We've made progress in Diskonia, Porgy, Rock On Island, and Block Koala too. We like to mix it up.

Picture of the games from UFO 50. Eight games are marked off as completed.

With a hectic review period the only game I finished in UFO 50 was Porgy as I blitzed through the others.

With time to relax and my partner we have picked up the Fangamer physical and love placing stickers as we go.

If you feel that use of AI art assets at any stage of the process is an automatic out, but ChatGPT translations are fine if they're "checked" by people, it might be worth asking yourself why that is. Because it sounds a whole lot like valuing the work of translators less than other creatives to me.

Wow, it's a terrible day to care about things

A copy of the book Perfect Organism: The Assembly Cut by Andy Kelly. The illustration on the cover shows a blood trail in a dark sci-fi ventilation system. A device with a glowing green screen lies on the ground.

Three tiny figures spacewalking outside a space station with a gas giant looming in the distance.

Blood splatters on the floor and an ominous shadow.

Someone watches through a vent as a figure brutally smashes the head of another figure into a wall.

Perfect Organism: The Assembly Cut

- The story of Alien: Isolation's creation
- Deep dives into design, art, AI, and more

Resident Evil Requiem leakers "deserve to die ten thousand deaths," former series director Hideki Kamiya says: "I pray they are cursed to never play the game again" "Destroying everyone's joy, just for these a**holes' own self gratification"

I am BEGGING websites to stop using machine translation. I see the Kamiya tweet EVERYWHERE with the wrong translation in the headline. It's 10k deaths not a thousand and a tiny bit of knowledge would grab it.

We need to stop normalising it. It normalises AI use, which we've already seen is eroding people's jobs in the industry. It's honestly gross. If this influences just one news writer to stop doing it then I have done my job. Please just don't. Also link people doing the work below. Would be fab!

If it's not okay to have AI write articles then why is it okay to have AI do your translations. Best case hire a JP speaker on staff. Second best use a translation from a human and link. Automaton, Siliconera and if I may say GamesRadar+ all have speakers on staff you can link to.

Scarlet Hollow Episode 5 is finally OUT!

Our vision was to make a game where your choices *actually* matter, instead of just being window dressing.

930,000 branching words later, no two runs should ever feel the same.

If Slay the Princess has no wrong decisions, Scarlet Hollow has no right ones.

Also, if you are a strategy-inclined writer or content creator, do let me know so I can pitch you on some wonderful, tricky and tactical titles 🎲♟️

✨i'm looking to talk to folks who make/design faces in video games for a story on @mothership.blog! please reach out if you'd like to talk.
