Recently, Unity have found a security issue that affects all projects made on all versions of the engine since 2017.1:

Applications that were built using affected versions of the Unity Editor are susceptible to an unsafe file loading and local file inclusion attack, depending on the operating system.

It means, that thousands of games and game assets are affected. And the majority of them WILL NOT BE FIXED, since they are abandoned or on low maintenance mode. So, playing Unity games may be a security issue now.

Since Techland were unable to finish RT in time, users recreated it from scraps in a cave:

Steam reviews never cease to amaze

Next Xbox has been cancelled (RUMOR)

Almost everyone who contacted the Discord support team during the last couple of years, is affected:

Discord was using a 3rd party support service and they leaked almost everything they could, including photos and documents provided.

They pretend that only a few people were affected, but it seems that everyone who contacted their support got the warning.

In the meantime EU is still trying to implement Chat Control 2.0 with extra backdoors to your files and messages.

And here's the hint on WHY ray tracing has been delayed: the game has a more dynamic sky system, stuck in-between Dying Light 1 (fully dynamic) and Dying Light 2 (several pre-baked spots):

Oddly enough, it also affects games: our screen changed, dynamic range extended, etc.:

This baby from Battlefield 4 preview can probably play Battlefield 6 by now!

Funcom shuts down The Outsiders. The studio existed for a decade and is known for a fairly successful rhythm shooter Metal: Hellsinger.

And Funcom also let go a lot of their own staff members: it seems that the recent launch of Dune: Awakening wasn't a long lasting success.

Apparently, people thought that Zelda (named after princess Zelda) will be happy to see her father Robin Williams in AI slop videos.

The legendary comedian took his life many years ago when his neurological issues started to appear. He was no longer able to remember scripts nor improvise.

Yeah, I can relate 😅

It seems like Total War Warhammer III developers made players mad and a lot of influencers to quit the series.

1. New bugs caused AI to do nothing after certain moment. Some factions just literally stop any steps further after turn 20.

2. New random effects from unique places can cause significant damage to the player without clarity on how to counter, like plague everywhere.

3. A lot of GPU-related crashes.

4. New skills and gameplay features often not fit into the overall balance (there are over 100 lords in the game, folks).

Honestly, at certain point it may make sense to move on and make the new Total War Rome.

Yeah, if you missed the point: the recent "COD lost $300m because of GamePass" isn't true in my opinion.

They lost it because the series is getting worse for what was supposed to be their target audience.
