New intro time! Hi!
I'm the Anime & Manga editor for @inbetweendrafts.bsky.social, where I also co-host Rookie Pirate Radio, our podcast that is mostly about One Piece but not exclusively.
When I'm not doing that I sometimes write for my game blog Hidden Levels, and I also like TCGs too much!

Our upcoming game HORSES was preemptively banned from Steam, with no path to appeal. The game will still launch next week on December 2nd and will be available on EGS, GOG, Humble, and Itch for $4.99. Here is a detailed FAQ covering what happened: horses.wtf/BannedFromSt...

"All these workers have ever tried to do is discuss their pay and conditions to improve them, so they can make a game loved by millions."
EXCLUSIVE: So far it's been unclear what proof Rockstar Games has to justify its firing of 34 union members, who it claims were leaking "confidential information in a public forum".
PMG has now seen some of the messages which contributed to this decision being made.

Many others have pointed it out but yeah this is basically what it means to like anything Square Enix puts out
After "film trilogy that dropped a critical plot point exclusively via timed Fortnite event" and "video game series whose story only makes sense if you're aware of the events of a canon pachinko machine", I feel like there are whole frontiers of user-hostile narrative design waiting to be explored.

Feels like it should be bigger news that a journalist known for being loud about her investigations into banks/payment processors appears to be getting financially stonewalled by the entire industry unaminously right now.
The full count as of today:
YouTube suspended
Twitch banned 3x
Patreon suspended (temporary)
Patreon 3x audio flags (one false posi)
Ko-fi suspended (indefinite?)
Buy Me a Coffee suspended
Vice reporting censored
Pornhub censored 3x times
Fansly censored 1x

Is it really a conspiracy to say Ana is being explicitly flagged by finance bros when she's now been banned (or censored) from Twitch, Patreon, Buy Me A Coffee, Ko-Fi, and *PornHub*??

i'm gonna be real. if arc raiders or any game that has genai in it or was snuck in/patched out wins an award at TGA or game of the year, it's gonna be bad. the awards are meaningless to the average consumer. but to execs it's a huge deal and it'll be a signal for them to keep pushing for it.
