  Do you know the casual candy crush **** they want you to play to entertain 1 billion people? Get ready.. because they're gutting their studios of creatives and pushing AI to make their games hard. Being human is a problem at XBOX.

  @arcanistsaphras @56pearo People have a problem with the direction the entire art is taking and the other person is spot on the money with blaming you for it. Saying "its not that bad" because they throw you crumbs is the saddest form a consumer can take. I wish people like you would stick to Candy Crush

  Maybe, it’s the fact nobody can afford anything, stock buybacks, etc. not “candy crush” also, so what? Your moloch gets hungry?! Sounds like a you problem.

  @CandyCrushSaga my problem with y’all is that this “RNG” in y’all’s game is so fake. When I have the gold bars, I never am in a good position at the end of the level to spend them, but the moment I don’t? I end the game with 5 color bombs, wrapped, striped candy, etc. Fix that

  Boss, why do you act like the company belongs to your father? It doesn't, right? Then why does approving a leave request give you emotional constipation? The moment I ask for one day off, your face looks like I personally crashed the company's servers. And listen, if I don't come to work for a day, who's going to do my tasks? That's your problem, boss! Isn't that what management is supposed to be about? Keeping backups, planning resources, handling absences? If your entire business collapses because one employee takes a leave, that's not management—that's a group project gone horribly wrong. And HR? Please tell me, what exactly is HR doing? Playing Candy Crush all day? Because whenever employees need help, HR suddenly becomes harder to find than a bug-free production deployment. You pay us wages like we're daily laborers... But expect performance like we're contractors managing five projects, three clients, and the economy itself. Honestly, boss, were you deprived of proper head massages with mustard oil as a child? Because some important development seems to have been skipped.

  @kanon06 And it shouldn't count them at all. There's a HUGE problem as a game company if you read this bs study and think your game should appeal to both the sweaty COD gamer blasting 12 hrs a day and Brenda from accounting who plays candy crush at lunchtime. Its a worthless study.

  Low TFR is a problem, but Candy crush is red herring here. Real problem is expensive housing. Need real incentives like 33% off taxes for every child under 18

  The Air India Boeing 787 has flight recorders, satellite feeds, and NVM chips tracking everything down to the pilot's heart rate, but the government is still convinced Aunt Priya's Candy Crush high score holds the key to the crash.

  @thomaslhorrocks No, it's not the plummeting social trust nor decaying society visible every where you go nor the most expensive housing market in history. No, the problem is clearly Candy Crush.

  Chris Fox (@heychrisfox) reported 31 minutes ago

  @Zengeku @ShitpostRock2 The issue is that Candy Crush is a bad example of a video game. It's like saying Garfield is a comic. Yeah, it is. But most people who talk about comics are thinking about X-Men or Spiderman, not Garfield.

  @asha_shar We might be in time line where sony having downfall and xbox returns to it's old self in a way from early 2000s Decision to not close studio quickly i guess was right, the one who should be fired /laidoff are people in charge of those studios and i agree that that xbox should focus on games and studio who are working fully,and are not idle or making sloppy games Time for halo franchise as top xbox game is gone now too, minecraft and candy crush definitely carrying it now 🔥 I do hope halo studios do something productive and make good halo games But having them Activision... They might milk it like callofduty, just hope story and gameplay stay good Future of gaming is grim but not lost yet Sony falling down with their stupid decisions , xbox need to rise up

  A high-school dropout coded a game after work each night. Microsoft paid $2,500,000,000 in cash for it. Edsbyn, Sweden. Markus Persson grows up in a house coming apart. His father cycles through alcohol, amphetamines, and jail for robberies. His parents split when he is 12. His younger sister runs away into drugs. He fakes stomachaches to skip school and sit at the family Commodore for hours. By 8 he is writing code. He never finishes high school. His mother, a nurse working the graveyard shift, forces him into an online programming course. That course becomes the whole career. 2004: he lands a job at a Stockholm game studio, the outfit that later builds Candy Crush. He keeps a paycheck by day and tinkers on his own worlds at night. 2009: he starts a blocky side project on indie forums and calls it Minecraft. He built the first version in about a week. It spread by word of mouth with no marketing. By 2014: 15,000,000 copies sold across consoles and PC. The pressure of being the sole god of a phenomenon wears him down. September 2014: Microsoft buys his studio Mojang for $2,500,000,000 in cash. His 71% stake makes him a billionaire overnight and lands him on the Forbes list. The audit: Minecraft passed 300,000,000 copies, the best-selling game in history. The 2025 movie grossed over $950,000,000. Forbes marks Persson near $1,300,000,000 today. His father went to jail. The dropout son built the best-selling game ever made.

  @Lfromthenorth @TenshiTTV I don't mean that you are lying. But here is my problem: people online are just nicknames. You can say, well, but there are games where voice is a must. Ok. But SC2 or non-teamed shooters are not like that. Still, we do not see girls playing them. Unlike Sims. Or Candy Crush.

  another great Chinese invention after DeepSeek and GLM-5.2: 90-second fake billionaire divorce dramas that somehow make more money than Netflix on mobile sounds stupid until you look at the business model it’s not really “streaming” it’s TikTok + soap opera + mobile game monetization you get a crazy opening: poor girl secretly married the billionaire CEO evil stepmom humiliates her ex-boyfriend appears someone gets slapped then right before the reveal… episode ends next episode costs coins this is the important part: Chinese short dramas are not competing with HBO they’re competing with TikTok, Candy Crush, gambling loops, romance novels, and boredom the user is not thinking: “is this cinema?” they’re thinking: “wait what happens next?” that is a much stronger business than people want to admit the format exploded in China because it solved 3 problems at once: creators could produce much faster than normal film/TV platforms already had short-video traffic web-novel style storytelling already trained users to pay chapter by chapter China basically turned internet novels into vertical video vending machines and the unit economics are brutal traditional streaming: spend huge money make 8 episodes hope people subscribe wait months for feedback short drama: make cheap episodes test the hook immediately kill what doesn’t convert scale what makes people pay it’s closer to mobile gaming than Hollywood and that’s why the App Store rankings look insane you now have these short drama apps ranking above serious billion-dollar streaming platforms not because the shows are better because the loop is sharper Netflix asks for attention short dramas demand resolution big difference the other interesting part: this format is now going global ReelShort, DramaBox, ShortMax, DramaWave, NetShort, etc. same structure, localized tropes: US market: werewolves, mafia romance, secret babies, billionaire husbands China market: revenge, family status, hidden identity, social mobility fantasy SEA/LATAM/India: localized melodrama + mobile-first payment loops this is also why AI video matters Seedance 2.0 and similar models won’t instantly create a perfect 90-minute movie wrong mental model the first real use case is much smaller: generate test scenes make fake trailers localize actors/backgrounds A/B test hooks turn scripts into animatics make ads faster produce low-budget vertical scenes cheaper short drama is one of the first entertainment categories where “AI slop” may actually be economically native because the audience is not paying for prestige they’re paying for: plot velocity emotional payoff identity fantasy cliffhanger resolution so the question is not: “can AI make cinema?” the question is: “can AI make the next 90 seconds addictive enough that someone pays 99 cents?” that is a much easier problem and probably a much bigger market than people think my take: short dramas will not replace Netflix but they will take time and spend from mobile games, romance apps, TikTok, YouTube Shorts, and casual entertainment the next big entertainment company may not look like Disney it may look like a game studio running hundreds of tiny soap operas with AI-assisted production and casino-level retention math

  1. The Start Menu Ad Board Situation: You open the Start Menu to launch your core tools, expecting a clean grid of your installed software. Instead, half your visual field is polluted with "Pinned" apps like TikTok, Instagram, and Candy Crush. You assume these are pre-installed programs taking up valuable disk space, but they are actually just paid corporate advertisements waiting for a misclick to trigger a background download. System: Right-click and unpin every single piece of corporate bloatware immediately. Do not leave a single one. Then, go to Settings > Personalization > Start and aggressively turn off "Show recommendations for tips, shortcuts, new apps, and more". Why it works: You reclaim your visual real estate and cognitive load. The Start Menu goes back to being a pure, functional launcher that obeys your commands, not a digital strip mall designed to steal your attention before you even begin working.

  @UmberHouse @Sir_Dammed Yes, *I* make it a quality issue. The whole problem, at its core, is a quality issue. Anyone can eat cheap fast food, that doesn't make everyone a gourmet. Just like anyone can play candy crush and that doesn't make them gamers

  @The_Epic_Mike they really think candy crush and farmville makes them gamers the problem is that the development companies believe this too they think they can convert the candy crush crowd to AAA games, which is just pure insanity I know zero women who own a PS5 or Xbox, zero, none
