For the first time in years, there are no blockchain gaming talks at GDC NFTs are out, generative AI is in at this year's Game Developer's Conferenceβ€”though much of the industry isn't on board with that, either.

Friendship ended with blockchain.

i really wish pr stopped making press do things with content creators/influencers. two different perspectives going for different things shouldn't be treated as the same, the functions we serve are different.

Gang, the samples that we receive as journalists are not a profit center. If I can't donate product I've used to do my work, or if I can't warehouse it, I don't get to make money on it. That's not how this works. If you're doing that and consider yourself a member of the media... please don't.

Consumptive Capitalism On MAHA and Expensive Suffering -- A Guest Post by Sara Silverstein

Professor @sarasilverstein.bsky.social is someone to whom I listen on issues of health and history. This essay helps us to situate the present American health drama in the history of health care, and thereby to see much more clearly what we face.

An Elite Dangerous player discovered a way to write new stories into the margins of the 12-year-old space sandbox, and now thousands are testing it How the nearly 9,000 players on the Distant Worlds 3 expedition are contributing to the birth of something new.

Thanks @tjcwilde.bsky.social for the opportunity to share something with the @pcgamer.com audience. Latest from @frontierdev.bsky.social's Elite Dangerous is the breakout success of MetaElite, a player-made engine for telling stories on top of the 12-year-old spacefaring MMO.
