"I wish artists would take notice that this is a great time to learn some form of AI" - Dead Space creator Glen Schofield doesn't think controversial tech will replace human talent, but still believes it has its place
Game developer and studio founder Glen Schofield has shared his thoughts on AI, and while he doesn't believe it will replace human labour any time soon, he thinks artists should take the time to learn some form of the technology now, before it is too late. Read more
I'm sad to report that when I worked on Black & White 2's expansion I was never offered a weed-laced chilli con carne
You may not be remotely surprised to learn that while making Black & White, the god game in which you can care for a three-story tall cow, many of the developers at Lionhead were smoking marijuana. As Peter Molyneux tells it in a recent anniversary piece for Eurogamer: "If there's any stimulant that aids creativity, it's weed."

"Keeping teams together doesn't seem to matter to people, but for us it did": Star Wars Zero Company's director on what the industry can learn from XCOM 2

In March alone, we saw 1000 staff let go at Epic Games, 124 at Eidos Montreal, and over 100 at Ubisoft's Red Storm Entertainment. And those are just the ones I can name without needing to rack my brain.
