Dark Woke is coming for you geoff keighley your awards show will not survive the decade inshallah
EXCLUSIVE on @gamedeveloper.bsky.social: not only has The Game Awards not nominated a Future Class for 2025, it's told alumni it "does not have any active programming plans" for the award.

The Future Class page was taken down sometime this year—eliminating a definitive archive of honorees.
The Game Awards' Future Class program remains on ice
Future Class organizer Emily Weir has informed past honorees that The Game Awards has no active plans for the program.

i don’t actually think this is true. i think this is much larger than social media. i don’t understand why people on here turn everything into a referendum about the forum they post on. your posting is not actually politics. it’s unbecoming to be this self obsessed.
Tonight's even more proof the mainstream reporters who are still on Twitter are suffering from a brain problem akin Havana Syndrome that is preventing them from accurately doing their jobs. They are being cooked alive by a snuff-focused apartheid algorithm.

worm behavior
There's the substance of the signal issue, and then there's the pattern of behavior that jay was responding to -- the constant, _constant_ off topic responses that make this tedious.

On the substance, it's really just that the guy didn't violate the ToS. I'm sorry, that's just it

every four months or so i get really mad that bean dad still has not denounced the israeli genocide and i make a shitty little comment on his instagram that i then delete. i would love to let this urge pass but i don’t think it’s gonna happen.

The #HugoAward for Best Game or Interactive Work goes to Caves of Qud.

I’d make the case that Caves of Qud is one of the standout works of SF in the 21st century thus far. It’s taken over a decade; it’s sprawling; it has its own idiosyncratic but consistent epistemologies that are only learnable by fucking around. So to see it recognized by the field is so validating.

SO few people have played time bandit despite it being so interesting and unique. I am not exaggerating when I say there is no other game like this, full stop - its combination of puzzle solving, stealth, and realtime elements inspired by games like animal crossing, create something truly special

I know a lot of you have already heard or read about BDS Movement's call against Microsoft, and felt weird and bad about it all, but decided to move forward as normal because of some degree of ambiguity.

"What service is Microsoft providing?"

Here it is, clear as day. A direct line to death.
