Just had an initial poke around Parkside: Decayed Soul Manipulation. An indie immersive sim I'd had an eye on for a while. It's a bit rough-edged and might need a few patches, but it feels like an interesting halfway point between Deus Ex and Cruelty Squad set in the grim cyberpunk future of 2038.

No longer content with pillaging intellectual work and dismembering our environment (already critically weakened), AI companies are now hellbent on destroying books galore including rare editions. Shut down these nefarious enterprises already.

Not as outwardly impressive as, say, Brutalist Jam 3, but Tremor just launched - a 'Quake like Id did' full campaign, filtering modern design through roughly the same software limits the original developers did. Some top talent from across the Quake scene involved in this one.

I'm very sorry to announce that I was one of the devs affected by the Obsidian layoffs today. At least for four years, it was a beautiful dream. If you need a writer with experience in everything from the fog of war to romance - especially if you're open to remote - please get in touch.

If you've been affected by the layoffs/reorgs today at Xbox, feel free to ping me if I can make intros to anyone in my network, you want to get tea (even online,) or want to shoot pixels on the internet for a while. Reminder that being laid off doesn't say anything about your performance or value.

Reply to this to send love to my team in Lyon and I'll make sure they see it 💕

Obsidian lost many excellent developers and wonderful people today. If you see them on your feed, please share their posts and celebrate their work.

So many amazing, wonderful people - and me - were laid off today. All of them deserve the world and I hope they get back on their feet soon. As for me? I suppose I'm open for work once the shock wears off.

If any teams are looking for Community Managers, Brand team members, or people with social media experience, please keep me in mind. I love this industry and hope my next exciting adventure keeps me here in games.💙

after almost 16 years my time with id is done as layoffs ravage everyone across the companies. i'm going to be fine money wise, but if you have money to spare, donate it to the game worker hardship fund! uvw-cwa.org/hardship-fun...

Ford has rehired hundreds of senior engineers after replacing them with AI backfired and has cost the company billions of dollars. AI adoption is blamed for Ford being the most recalled automaker in the U.S. with 51 recalls covering over 11 million vehicles in the first half of 2026 alone.

Dang, they really do cover him the way JJJ covers Spider-Man.

Also drowned out a bit by today's indie MEGA-RELEASE, The Convergence (probably Elden Ring's biggest mod) rolled out its huge 3.0 expansion, overhauling the expansion areas and adding a whole Legacy Dungeon to it. www.nexusmods.com/eldenring/mo... SO many new/reworked bosses, weapons, classes, etc
