Players are returning their Dispatch copies due to Switch censorship (www.polygon.com) angielski

Dispatch’s release on Nintendo platforms today was poised to be another testament to AdHoc’s tremendous success with the point-and-click superhero workplace comedy, but news of a platform-specific difference has overshadowed much of the excitement for fans hoping to play the episodic series on-the-go. Instead of celebrating...

Hero shooter Highguard reportedly didn't even pay for the Game Awards slot that's earned it so much preemptive hate—the showrunners thought it deserved the spotlight (www.pcgamer.com) angielski

Remember when Apex Legends was shadow dropped? It’s a risky move for such a high-profile game to skip all the pre-release marketing hype entirely, but it paid off, and it’s clear why Respawn went that route—“photoreal PvP hero shooter” was an eyeroll-inducing prospect even back in 2019, so letting the game speak for...

Bully Online, the ambitious mod that brought multiplayer and more to Rockstar's classic school sim, shuts down a month after launch: 'This was not something we wanted' (www.pcgamer.com) angielski

We expressed concerns about Bully Online, a massively ambitious mod that promised to bring multiplayer and a host of new systems to Rockstar’s classic school sim, when we ran across it in November 2025. It looked great, but the initial release was limited to people willing to pay for it through the mod team’s Ko-Fi page, and...

Do you make the same argument for Grand Theft Auto?

A Steam dev is deleting his own game after girlfriend made him realize AI is bad (www.polygon.com) angielski

AI in video games is a caustic enough subject that Valve requires developer disclosure if a title utilizes the generative technology. This way, people who have qualms about AI or its impact can opt out of purchasing anything that uses the genAI. One developer, however, is saving everyone from the moral quandary in the first...

Hooded Horse ban AI-generated art in their games: "all this thing has done is made our lives more difficult" (www.rockpapershotgun.com) angielski

Manor Lords and Terra Invicta publishers Hooded Horse are imposing a strict ban on generative AI assets in their games, with company co-founder Tim Bender describing it as an “ethics issue” and “a very frustrating thing to have to worry about”....

Ubisoft is just seeding their own demise.

I’ve stumbled upon plenty of projects that migrated to alternative platforms. If anything, this may just further accelerate the process.

So they suspended users without telling them about the fairly recent TOS update? That’s just scummy behaviour.

When has a TOS ever been user friendly?

Oh please… As if you’ve read every single TOS update you’ve ever received.

After GOTY pull, Clair Obscur devs draw line in sand: 'Everything will be made by humans by us' (www.polygon.com) angielski

The gaming world appeared ablaze after the Indie Game Awards announced that it was rescinding the top honors awarded to RPG darling Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 due to the use of generative AI during development. Sandfall Interactive recently sat down with a group of influencers for a private interview session, where the French...

The biggest video game stinkers of 2025, according to Metacritic (www.polygon.com) angielski

Everywhere you look right now, there’s a gaggle of nerds foaming at the mouth to share their list of the very best video games of 2025. (And we’re no exception!) But what about the stinkers, the flops, the dead-on-arrival turds? We want to take a few moments to honor the low achievers of 2025, the absolute worst games of the...

It’s just a fun article to break up the usual doom and gloom.

While AI is just tool like anything else, the fact it is being used to replace talented artists just to save a quick buck is why it is understandably being called evil. Context matters.

The article is hardly attacking Valve. Just acknowledging how they got here with a bit of good nature ribbing. Nothing wrong with being able to laugh at ourselves.

inZOI was full of red flags that foreshadowed this “AI first” shift.

To be fair, Nintendo’s systems are usually underpowered compared to the competition. Not that it matters in the grand scheme of things, but still.

This is going down as yet another game that’s stuck in development hell.

EA: Maxis will continue to have creative freedom.

Also, EA: We’ve put all of Maxis’ resources into The Sims 4.

I’m just going to assume they’re throwing everything at the wall to see what sticks.

I have a hunch this goes one step higher than the private banks.

While I agree, a lot of these banning campaigns do try to link LGBTQ+ as NSFW to justify their actions.

I think I know what this is about. Terror in Little Creek is coming out later that same month. They want you to forget the 2015 game.

tonytins,
@tonytins@pawb.social avatar

I believe this was the tie-in point and click game for the 2015 movie since the publish date is the same.

Fuck you too, Ubisoft.
