This is a very important public service announcement. Nearly every gaming site I've been to has had at least one "All the details you MISSED in the GTA 6 trailer!!!" article somewhere. We've officially entered the next phase of the GTA hype life cycle.

On the one hand I'm not opposed to mod creators getting paid for their work. There are a lot of great Skyrim mods, released and upcoming, that I wouldn't mind paying for. Total conversions like Enderal, giant content expansions like Beyond Skyrim, and especially a lot of the great companion mods. The pay what you want option seems like a good way to let people support mod creators while not creating a paywall. On the other hand I just don't trust Bethesda to deal with all of the issues this is going to create and it's hard to see how it doesn't end up negatively impacting the wider modding community.
Can't wait to play Florida Simulator in 2025! More seriously, the game does look great and I'm curious to see just how accurate all the leaks over the years were, since the Bonnie and Clyde premise is seemingly confirmed.
Interesting read. I really liked Fable 3's Industrial Revolution setting, but it did feel like the game was on fast forward once you actually got the throne. It's a shame they weren't able to make it the experience they wanted it to be.
Kind of in between games at the moment. Been digging through my backlog, looking for something to play, but nothing has really clicked yet. In the meantime I've been doing this little gaming advent calendar thing with Mission in Snowdriftland. It's a platformer that used to be a flash game that was used to promote Nintendo products back in the 2000s. It's set up like an advent calendar, with 24 levels. You could probably beat it in a few hours, but I've been enjoying taking it one level a day,
Well, that was vague and didn't tell me anything. At least we know the game is eventually coming out, I guess?
Well, it looks like Fallout. The people behind the costumes and set design certainly did good work. Hopefully it ends up feeling like Fallout too.
On the one hand I'm always excited for more Witcher. On the other hand Cyberpunk 2077. More seriously, I hope they make a great game and it that lives up to the expectations people are going to have for a new Witcher game, but I'm keeping my expectations in check until I see the finished product.
And Embracer claims another victim. It feels like they aren't going to have many studios left when they finish their "restructuring" process. At least Wingefors was nice enough to acknowledge that the employees, who might be about to lose their jobs, are going through a slightly more challenging time than the executives who are deciding which studio is next on the chopping block.
I was surprised at how much I enjoyed Dredge. I was expecting a fishing game with a Lovecraft coat of paint but the fishing elements and the Lovecraftian elements worked together better than I expected. Glad to see the DLC is keeping things weird.
Always happy to see another worker-owned gaming news outlet pop up. Definitely plan on checking it out.
Bethesda breaking everything with their update isn't a surprise. Honestly, the thing I'm most looking forward to when the next Elder Scrolls releases is that Bethesda will finally leave Skyrim alone. Paid mods coming back is concerning and it definitely makes me worry about what the next Elder Scrolls is going to end up looking like if Bethesda are developing it with paid mods in mind.
