Finally rolled credits on the Diablo 4 expansion. Some quick thoughts as a Path of Exile 2 player:
- Good story, enjoyed it a bunch
- Much better boss fights than core + VOH, Mephisto and Inarius were faves
- Paladin skills are cool, I like the leap
- Combat still does not hook me, feels janky
- Not a fan of the open world
- I miss pause + saving where I am like in PoE 2, I had to redo a bunch of quests due to my lovely family ;)
- Wardrobe system is peak, GGG please take notes from Blizzard
- Environments are fascinating but you kinda zoom through them on your horse
- I see why D4 has campaign skip, I cannot see really wanting to play that campaign again even though I liked the story, too many unskippable dialogue/travel sequences
Now, onward to the endgame and War Plans...100% blind. This should be interesting.

@BellularGaming Probably Garrosh, but this time from an alternate ALTERNATE timeline where he drank deep of Mannaroths blood. So now we have Green

Finally cancelling my cable service. Chatting with a “Live Agent”. They started asking me all these detailed questions about what I use Internet for and what devices I have connected. After 12 minutes of questions, I finally asked to be done with the questions and get on with the cancellation. Then after 20 min of silence, they offered to downgrade my Internet service for less money. I’m determined to stick with it and actually cancel though.
Over an hour in and they are still making me offers to reduce the rate! And they aren’t even very good offers. I can’t believe they are able to do this. Should be illegal.
Any good cable cancellation stories to entertain me while I wait?

@TheStrongDad Sure isn’t. Still impressive considering most men can’t even do a pull up with both hands. She’s doing it with one hands assisting the other holding which isn’t one hand. It’s 2.

That's not a one-arm Pull up

Brie Larson doing a one arm pull up (or three) lives in my mind rent free 🚬

Hey guys, quick update on EllesmereUI! This one’s less about features and more about AI. I know it’s is a touchy subject for many, so I want to be upfront about how much I’m using it. As EUI rapidly expands, I’ve found myself relying more heavily on AI. I’m putting in 16+hr a day, but even with dedicating my entire life to it, it’s just too massive to expand and maintain alone.
This doesn’t mean I’m not extremely hands on still, but it does mean that a large amount of the codebase is managed by AI, even if I am guiding and helping it and checking its work thoroughly. Since vibecoding is a hot topic around addon creation, and I’ve noticed myself leaning on AI more and more, I want to just keep you guys in the loop about EUI’s usage of AI.
On the results side tho, performance has never been better. Leveraging AI more has helped me push optimizations to extremes and improve overall stability. With proper guidance and oversight, it’s allowed me to start actually getting some sleep again (occasionally)
I get people can be hesitant about AI managed codebases, which is the purpose of this tweet. Hope this helps keep things transparent

@JayOddity Careful,dont post that on ashes reddit cause youll get permabanned. Xd

Ashes Of Creation Drama Has Gone Nuclear
- Steven has filed his documents making his case
- Posted on Reddit an official statement
- Reiterates his claim that TFE / Rob Dawson forced him to give up control
In my opinion, Steven's case looks rather weak. After looking through the evidence provided, many of the claims are somewhat unsubstantiated.
Anything you could call threats seem to come from Jason Caramanis and they just read like someone who is angry, not threatening. I can only assume Steven has some witnesses who can provide more evidence on this. Any coercion just looks like someone who doesn't want to invest money into a debt ridden company without more equity.
Steven's reddit message is very careful with his wording about the board's existing, while completely ignoring any issues about Steven and John being able to fund the game, and having investors.
To me it seems Steven thinks this is the smoking gun that proves his side of the story, to me it looks like he's holding a banana.
I'm not a lawyer, maybe just another completely wrong content creator.

@primord_io @AshesMomentsYT Retention bullshit,23k peak and dropping, gross sales of 9 mill is 5mill actual profit, which barely paid 6 weeks of expenses, and what after? Ppl were not going to pay more.
English

@AshesMomentsYT "sell for parts"
What parts?? What revolutionary tech are they salvaging???
Honestly the TFE guys got taken for a ride. 140 million dollars burned?? Not nothing to show for it! Ashes is a great game and if they would have shrunk down to a skeleton crew they'd still have a success

@TheoryForge @StevenJSharif Hah, game is forgotten. Its all about money, also ,there is now way they would make game presentable in next 8 months.

Horizon MMO Might Be Better Than Expected!
- 16 and 30 person raids
- No pay to win
- No auto combat (manual play only)
- Monetised through battle passes and cosmetics
- Beta test coming in H1 2026
- PC and Mobile (console version being discussed)
I initially dismissed this as another Korean mobile cash grab, but it looks like that might have been hasty.
