๐Ÿ‘Devlogs are great.

Devlogs that break down why a dev made certain decisions? Even better.๐Ÿ”ฅ

This one by Ombarus is a perfect example:

Zero appetite for anti-AI populism in the video game industry.

Between the statements from Sandfall and Larian, weโ€™re hitting days of ignorance with absurd reactions everywhere.

Expedition 33 winning everything makes total sense.

The audience vote + announcements clearly point to a gacha-driven era.

Great show, but the final ads felt oddly placedโ€ฆ sold spot or last-minute swap?

Still my favorite event of the year.
