An art director for Obsidian working on the first-person fantasy game Avowed was exposed on X by Elon Musk for alleged illegal racist hiring practices at the Microsoft studio. Musk then personally brought this discovery to the attention of Satya Nadella, the CEO of Microsoft.
Elon Musk has apparently had enough. The world’s richest man today announced plans to create an AI game studio to “make gaming great again.”
It’s not secret that the gaming industry has become inundated with companies that solely exist to push DEI and “woke” values to a new generation of gamers. We’ve seen this over and over again from Sweet Baby Inc. to Black Girl Gamers and beyond. YouTubers MasterofTheTDS and WritingRaven have exposed one such company, a Dutch firm called Games 4Diversity, for pushing a culturally-divisive game featuring a magical drag display to children.
Witcher 4 Developer CD Projekt Red’s Senior Experience Designer Max Osipovsky appeared to mock and belittle a fan on X today for expressing concern over DEI elements in the upcoming title’s narrative.
Original Mass Effect trilogy director Casey Husdon announced that his new game studio would close without releasing a single game.
Ubisoft is reportedly pressuring Steam to get rid of its concurrent player count feature following the disastrous launch of Star Wars: Outlaws on the platform.
The deeply unpopular Star Wars title failed to draw a massive PC audience, resulting in a concurrent player count in its debut weekend that fell short of 2,500 players worldwide. This would be a terrible showing for any Triple A title, but it’s even worse for a major Star Wars release featuring classic characters like Jabba the Hutt.
Star Wars: Outlaws debuted on Steam yesterday and many were wondering if the troubled Ubisoft title would finally find its audience on PC.
Stuttering Craig’s The Real Game Awards will both celebrate positive achievements in gaming and shine a light on some of its most abysmal failures.
The massive bomb Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League, which brought the antics of narrative design firm Sweet Baby Inc. into the light, has hit a new low, both in terms of failure and pricing. The Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League Digital Deluxe Edition, originally priced at $100, is on currently on the Epic Games store for just five bucks.
If Keighley’s filing with the US patent office succeeds, he’ll effectively own the term “game awards.” This is an incredibly generic term used by many smaller award shows run by independent creators. Keighley is the largest voice in the gaming award show scene, with his suit and tie star-studded event taking place every year on YouTube, backed by the Triple A gaming industry.
Geoff Keighley’s The Game Awards announced nominations today on a YouTube livestream and it wasn’t what the public expected.
Most assumed that the tenth iteration of Keighley’s annual event, which is typically driven by corporate interests and the legacy games journalism elites, would celebrate failed “woke” titles like Dragon Age: The Veilguard, Concord, Dustborn, and Star Wars: Outlaws. However, those games received very little attention while fan favorites like Black Myth Wukong and Astrobot ruled the day.
