We hope it becomes an annual tradition, as it has for many Halloween-loving players 🧡
My daughter and I have been playing Costume Quest in 30-minute intervals before school each morning and loving it.
Hoping to pace ourselves to beat the second one before Halloween, too.

My counterpoint to "if you cared about your work, you would crunch" is if you cared about the quality of your game and your workers, you would give them appropriate time to craft it.

Some of the comments about affected communities I saw in the wake of Sony’s announcement to kill discs made me want to investigate further. So I did, and what I learned was complicated, interesting, and often not what I expected. Super happy with this one, please have a read!
Who Gets Left Behind In Sony's All-Digital Future?
We spoke to rural players, librarians, global gamers, and tournament organizers, and the consensus isn't what you'd expect.

In addition to having no experience in immigration, their website shows Ilya Shapiro (!) and disgraced former law prof Joshua Wright (!) as Senior Counsel. I don't think this massive contract was awarded to give immigrant children effective, zealous advocacy. burkegroup.law/our-team/

YEZTUGO (lenacapavir) is a new injectable form of long-acting PrEP that only requires 2 doses per year to prevent HIV infection, and 3 million people are expected to get access to the drug by 2028 via The Global Fund. Sounds great, right? (1/5)

"1 billion gamers every day" is private equity talk. It's key jingling for the dragons that want to die on larger heaps of gold.
And when there aren't a billion players a day it won't be the promise-makers that pay, but the remainder of the industry.

asha sharma going "we want 1 billion players a day" a nice reminder that these execs are fundamentally incapable of understanding that their customers do not have infinite money or even just that time is finite. they just think you haven't been fed the right marketing yet to get you on board

20 of the 53 merits decisions from #SCOTUS so far have divided the justices 6-3 or 5-4.
In *19* of those 20, the three Democratic appointees have been on the same side—dissenting 12 times; in the majority 7 times.
A Court that was less defined by politics would have far *more* cross-party splits.
