a street-wise hercules that fights the rising odds. games industry person of interest. opinions that get people mad are solely my fault.

has anyone covering the Wall Street GME reaping and sowing gone into the fact that a lot of the GameStop and directly associated trades have been largely amplified by social listening powered mega firms doing machine learning automated trades because the “idea” of GME is popular?
like I thought this was a thing investor people & press just knew & instead it’s all just focused on the message of redditors clowning short sellers and not “the computers saw the infinite monkeys on infinite typewriters and decided That Would Be A Cool Thing To Emulate” for $$$

creative director @ google stadia has interesting ideas on who should be paying who for streaming games lol
if there ever was a tweet that embodied all of the hubris that exists within Google Stadia's leadership, boy howdy did we find it

pretty cool how every game @supergiant has released is their best game to date, and that includes the release version of Hades vs the Early Access version of Hades.
best diablo like since diablo 3, and best rogue like since dead cells. don't sleep on Hades - it's v good
in particular, the voice acting & writing is so, so perfect. plenty of games that dip into mythology just paint by numbers, but Hades goes hog wild with painting the pantheon of Gods into characters you never skip the text boxes on (in a LOOTER, which is even more impressive!)
