Q: What do you think is going on with Sony's first-party lineup for 2024?
Games take a long time to make. The long development cycles are affecting Sony's release schedule, and they may not have major titles until 2025.
Rebel FM Episode 614 - 02/23/2024
Q: Why does UE5 adoption seem so slow?
The engine only recently became production ready, and many games starting production before that continued using UE4. Additionally, the long development cycles mean that games likely aren't publicly seen until years after they begin development.
Rebel FM Episode 630 - 07/26/2024
Q: What are your thoughts on the leaked excerpts from Lou Elizondo's book about the phenomenon?
It's definitely the biggest news that happened in the entire last week, signaling increased interest in political narratives around alien disclosures.
