Hello there, it's introduction time!
I'll be mostly posting about game dev and politics (often both)(the politics will be leftist), intersped with some light shitposting and the occasional picture of my dog.
If that's okay with you, welcome !

"If you didn't care enough to make it, I don't care enough to pay any attention to it" sums up my stance pretty well.
I don’t know if anyone else notices or cares, but when I see a presentation in which the speaker uses obviously generated-AI images to illustrate their slides, it makes me immediately less confident in whatever other content they’re presenting.

Three weeks ago I marked nine years on Testosterone.
I didn't celebrate it then because I was in the middle of a multi-month battle to be allowed to stay on it, despite not producing my own hormones and simply wanting to remain on the exact prescription I'd had for nine years without any problems.

Hello gamedev folks 💔
It's my final straw. If I don't find work in 1 month, I'll have to quit gamedev definitely, and make a big career change for something more stable.

I know people who have spent their entire career on an unreleased game, and some who worked on it, left to ship another game, came back, left again to ship another game, and came back again.
Unbelievably, 17 years after its original announcement, Ubisoft appears to still be hiring for Beyond Good and Evil 2

Vraiment c'est ma raison de radicalisation la plus frivole : Avoir la haine viscérale d'aller acheter des habits et être obligé d'y aller tous les 6 mois parce que c'est la nouvelle durée de vie d'un pantalon 🔥🔥🔥

I see some new "See, this is why placeholders have to be bright pink and ugly" Discourse and while yes, that is true, it obfuscates the fact that THE AI SLOP PIECES WERE NEVER MEANT TO BE PLACEHOLDERS.
Stop falling for it. They're only sorry they got caught.

Big Mad because I have been hyping myself for this game for literal months. I have other things to play I guess, but I'm still mad.
BTW never believe their BS, it's not a "placeholder" when you never planned to have anyone make the final art. They just hoped no one would notice (or care).
