"What did you play this week?" "Donald Rumsfeld died!" :D

And given how much of a ****show Sony is with devs, I again ask “how does that explain Life of Black Tiger or Skylight Freerange 2: Gachduine, or for that matter, Gilson B. Pontes?” These are indies that inexplicably got a lot more attention than they deserved, and a lot more attention than almost any other indie games seem to get.

I'd have understood if they didn't want to add content warnings to Doki Doki Literature Club at all because they'd give away the twist but it really sucks that they did implement them, they just did a bad job.

Jesus fucking christ. From Bloomberg, an actual news publication with actual money, staff, editors, unlimited resources, and staff: A spokeswoman for Ubisoft declined to discuss Infinity in detail but acknowledged its existence. This got written, edited, published, and put up. Then they have the gall to ask for money. If I wrote this professionally, I would be laughted out of a job.
