It's a time of great innovation
But also a time of chaos...
And conspiracy...

Also, folks, I remember how we were showcasing Deus Ex Human Revolution, it was just a few years ago... *checks the data* in 2010. Wait, that's 16 years ago 😭

Guys around me are Andre Vu (marketing director) and Jonathan Jacques-Belletête (art director and the face of Adam Jensen).

During that game event we were selling souvenirs from Eidos Montreal. And among them was a USB Flash Drive with some fan kit. Basically a nice metallic 4GB USB stick (cool for 2010), engraved with the logo and packed with art.

At first we were selling them for like $20, they were selling-out too fast. We raised to $50, still too fast. The last few were placed in the store for $100 — PEOPLE WERE STILL BUYING THEM.

We hoped to keep some for giveaways for later, but the convention spirit makes any price reasonable.

And Highguard website went down
(Code 32 is a website making studio)

The online fell to just 627 players this morning and we're talking about free to play game.

Godot veteran Rémi Verschelde has expressed dismay at the number of "AI slop" pull requests being generated for the free, open-source engine by large language models.

Sloperators, stay away, please 😭
