Discord, the social chat app popular with the video game community, has met with investment bankers in recent weeks to discuss preparations for an initial public offering as soon as this year, two people familiar with the talks said.

The people, who requested anonymity because the conversations are confidential, cautioned that the talks were still exploratory and that I.P.O. plans remained subject to change.

Liking this post series. Looking forward to the next one!

Congrats!

“We also have something really crazy in this game that’s gonna happen at the end, and I can guarantee you, you’ve never seen it in a video game before. It’s really fucked up."

👀 curious

Heck yes. I’ve been a big fan of all of his releases.

Replayed it for the third time a few weeks ago.

Looking forward to Split Fiction after thoroughly enjoying A Way Out and It Takes Two.

I would need more evidence to conclude that the list was generated using AI.

I don’t think there’s much argument over the merit of each of these games. Most “best games of all time” lists would have these games. I think it’s natural that critically acclaimed and widely beloved games show up on both the Rolling Stone’s list and in GPT 4o’s training data.

I can understand arguments regarding the order of their list however. That was my intention when submitting the link – to stir up discussion regarding the order they chose for the games.

Cool concept!

Enjoyed the first one. The lack of a map was agonizing though. Kept getting lost in the world. I believe you only unlock it after credits roll.

Neck tie for me

Intensely dumb.

EDIT: The Pro Plus Premium Max etc words all jumbled up together just don’t fit well with me. I’d need to keep referring to the chart in the article to avoid confusing between all the models.

The Quarry

Haven’t completed it yet, so it’ll be the first game I play in 2025 😅

Same! Glad I was introduced to it as well.

From the Steam store page:

Requires 3rd-Party Account: PlayStation Network (Supports Linking to Steam Account)

Hazelight has put out great games. Really looking forward to this one.

Cool! I enjoy year-in-review stats.

Genius Bar

Apparently it still works. Came across a Short talking about it.

“We think there is a fundamental misconception about piracy. Piracy is almost always a service problem and not a pricing problem,”

“If a pirate offers a product anywhere in the world, 24 x 7, purchasable from the convenience of your personal computer, and the legal provider says the product is region-locked, will come to your country 3 months after the US release, and can only be purchased at a brick and mortar store, then the pirate’s service is more valuable.”
