I am looking into this, I've reached out to Steam directly, and I'm actively pitching stories on this subject of the platform's shaky moderation. If any other devs have experienced something similar with reviews and moderation, do reach out.
the Steam team responded to my support request and said they will not remove the review calling me a liar and ridiculing my sexual assault because of censorship concerns.

I wrote a whole post about not really getting "visual" awe, and it was good introspection I'll definite write more about.
But I did find one *real* moment of awe, albeit in a different context:
The moment I realized the *entire map of DQ1* was (shrunkenly) included in DQ2, I dropped my controller.

Any studio that says they're only using their own assets for an A.I. model is lying to you, likely intentionally.
Generative A.I. models require an insane amount of existing work to create anything that looks new and decent. Categorizing said data would take years.

Larian CEO says Divinity could have gen AI assets in it but only if the tools are trained on the studio's own data.

It is important to note that the US is not fascist in function, even if the administration is in their ideals. They want it, but they won't have it.
We will not give it to them. We will not let fascism come here. This is not ok, and there is so much good work being done to prevent these problems.

I wonder what any of you would do differently in your lives if I said "yes, America is at this moment a fascist nation."
Because I tell ya what, if I thought so, I'd be doing things differently. For starters, I wouldn't bother worrying about elections or candidates or whom to support. /1

Any advice Tom has on making indie games is worth listening to, but I really want to highlight his thoughts on price point - it's well explained.
I do think that the movement to get indies to charge more mostly just hurt new indies - with fewer players, fewer/worse reviews, and lower sales.

If you've ever done labor organizing, you run into this a lot
You would be surprised how many people will argue, with a straight face, that they don't *deserve* to be paid more !!!

Tbh it’s interesting that 2021-2023 kinda revealed why voters in developed democracies have tolerated poor wage growth for so long: they’re much more likely to blame themselves than structural forces

Your reminder that what happened to Renee Nicole Good is something that happens regularly in America. This is not new, but it is an expanded version of militarized people targeting Black people in particular.
From ICE detention to murder with impunity, we've been doing it. Now it's broadened.
