I thought it was fun, despite some clunkiness. I also played it on gamepass and clocked in 100-200 hours. I intend to pick it up again once the game matures a bit more and receives additional expansions.

Here is an article on it: https://www.polygon.com/23894267/epic-games-fortnite-unreal-engine-layoffs-2023

Looks like they just were spending too much and needed to clean up. On the positive side, they're offering all affected employees 6 months of severance + healthcare. That is really generous of them.

TikTok is blocking searches for WGA amid the ongoing writers strike (www.mediamatters.org)

Users on TikTok searching for “WGA” are met with a screen claiming that the phrase “may be associated with behavior or content that violates our guidelines.” No videos return. Users are also unable to search for the “WGA” hashtag....

mike591,

Update (9/11/23): A TikTok spokesperson told Media Matters that “WGA has been inadvertently blocked as part of the platforms' protections against QAnon conspiracy theories.” Searches for “WGA” and related terms now appear to function normally.

Looks like it got fixed

mike591,

This is what I will be getting if you're curious. Going to sit on it for a day or two before pulling the trigger.

I like how the games allow the ability to freely move in and out of my ship and the game worlds offer a good amount of exploration. And it might sound silly, but I like being able to perform maintenance on my ship.

Again, this is just my thoughts on it and might not give off the same feelings to others.

Preview: Fae Farm Is So Much More Than A Farming Sim | MMORPG.com (www.mmorpg.com)

Fae Farm, the cozy sim from the Dauntless developers, Phoenix Labs, aims to bring a chill vibe to your Switch and PC this fall. Combining RPG elements with some of the best design aesthetics from farming and life sims in recent years, Fae Farm is shaping up to be so much more than just a farming sim.

Oh, I am a sucker for farming sims. I just thought that the game looked interesting and wanted to share the article. I would still wait for post-release reviews first before making a decision.
