Anju Juneja🇮🇳 (@junejamkanju) reportedCan we please come out of this candy crush campaign. We have far serious issues to discuss. All the fuel owners of this country are enjoying their luxury life and pushing the whole nation into lockdown and inflation caused by shortage and inflated rates of fuel
-
GREY_WREATH (@GreyWreath) reported@****** I usually find that people that spank are just kind of stupid. Like they don't want to genuinely invest into the relationship with their kid and doom scroll, so when their kid acts out they want to just resort to violence, "stop the problem", then go back to candy crush.
-
✌️ (@magantifa) reported@mpm773 @CWBChicago Nah not really. Main problem is nobody wants to work anymore. Cops would rather play candy crush in their cars for their shift
-
🥚 e-GG🥚 (@wjsilver) reported@hot_cocoa_girl The problem with spending money on a dating site is that it isn't clear what you are buying with that money. Like I recognize how it is supposed to get you more attention, but it hits me as a little too "pay to win Candy Crush power up" vibes.

Harshad Mehta (@mehtahershey101) reported@BraedendotTECH 💯 if it's a you, me and peers problem then no it's not an us problem it's a system problem. Wetwear isn't designed for next token predictions. You need to let the ideas digest, marinate and think through it. This is just candy crush for adults. the 20yr olds will realize it soon
-
Medi Zerovan (@medi0) reported@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.
-
Yamanishi 👾 (@YamanishiM1) reported@IdleSloth84_ Honestly, it seems that management over Xbox Studios and Bethesda was the main issue. For sure some employee redundancy led to layoffs, but I don't know if Xbox would be better or worse w/o ABK. At least, CoD before BO7, Warzone and Candy Crush probably brought some money.

papuc (@turtledome) reported@Grummz Unbelievable they have 2500+ people working on… Candy Crush !?
-
Tim C (@TimC_266) reported@CollinRugg This is not a bad thing of course, but I don't understand why they can't use cell signal blockers around the school to prevent cell phone use (allowing kids to keep them on their person) and have it set up so that in the event of an emergency, a kill switch is activated deactivating the cell signal blockers. Seems more reasonable to me; gets the desired result (no cellphone use in class) and also allows immediate access to emergency help in the event of an emergency. Is the problem with this idea that kids use their phones even without cell signals? To do what? Play an offline version of Candy Crush or something?

Nahum✝️ ⚓🐟︎(Nico Robin's) (@naheshas) reported@soupybabee @KounaraChan It's not a problem for me to say I'm in a female domiant space when i say I play Candy crush, as if I were a woman and I say , I play RPGs which are male dominant space.
-
Mad Meon (@AndrssTerranova) reported@not__vee I would view this "study" with the same skepticism as the one that said "most gamers were women" by including mobile games like Candy Crush. Also, the powers that be seem to have no trouble not listening to the customer base. Why would they listen now?
-
Azure 💙🩶 (@LordazureFGC) reported@LOVETHEW0RLD What irritates me. When I was a kid, my mom would play Sonic 2. Beat it. We played other games. She beat Crash 1 - 3(100% btw). She almost beat Banjo and kazooie. Stuff happens. Now she plays "candy crush" type games. And said video games are overwhelming. Wtf do you mean!? 😭
-
Shawn (@BlueCow_Betting) reported@MrWaDdLeSeY @TJWilkinson @ArcRaiderAlerts You’re delusional, my lobbies have been mostly friendly for weeks and nothing has changed. It’s literally a PVPVE game, and a EXTRACTION shooter.. the folks the come on here and cry because they occasionally get shot at need to go play candy crush and get their dopamine fix there
-
Steve Zrimec (@ZrimecSteve) reportedBut are we totally sure the problem isn’t Candy Crush?
-
David Zion (@IamNotHim777) reported@balatroist @KevinCastley @grok When you don’t have an argument. You either strawman or just hurl insults. You haven’t made a single coherent rebuttal . Other than Oh Yeah what about xxxxx. In lieu actually addressing the issue. This isn’t your strong suit. Maybe find something else to do. Try midget porn maybe or candy crush. I hear that’s popular.

Sourabh Gurwani (@SourabhGurwani) reported@avrldotdev grown adults watching AI fix TypeScript errors like it’s Candy Crush 😭
-
Chris Fox (@heychrisfox) reported@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.

Yvonne Oots (@YvonneOots60013) reported@King_Games When will your game "Candy Crush Soda Saga" be back to working on facebook. it says you are working hard to fix the problem

Mike Chong (@realMikeChong) reportedanother 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

National_Cowboyism (@NatCowboyism) reportedI really don’t like working with white trash people. “Yeah was a **** addict for 10 years but my kids are all still on drugs” I don’t care, we’re not equals. Stay away from me, I’m not going to explain how a 401k works. Go play candy crush on your Walmart phone.

Buford H. Beauregard, Jr. (@BigFordBeau) reported@notnguyenonline No like i show up to work and do my **** and leave. It doesnt feel like a career or like im working towards anything. If i play candy crush at my desk 60% of the time so be it idgaf

Ararara Lebortini (@lebortini96910) reported@SoraJoestar1 @adamstannow @illusPlatypus For beast it in fact is, beast's lead easily two turns every boss in the game with no issues, which mean that both actives are in fact enough. Get better at the candy crush with flashy animations ig

Pixel Operative (@PixelOperative) reportedIs this the beginning of the end for Xbox? One telling data point for me is that King and Mojang are the biggest studios at Xbox. When you think of Xbox, do you think of Minecraft and Candy Crush? I know I don't. I guess that's the problem. Studios being sold off: * Compulsion Games * Double Fine Productions * Ninja Theory * Undead Labs * Arkane appears to be closing entirely.

God Arguments (@ArgumentsGod) reportedDying of cancer and still afraid to actually talk frankly about the true problems facing people. No, it isn't Candy Crush, the game primarily popular with housewives.
-
jeftah (@jeftahx) reported@threelinestudio @onyxicca The only problem with the statistic is that they consider your grandma that booted candy crush once a "gamer". Women consume more mobile video games than men, and this has somewhat poisoned the overall statistic.

Clustz News • AI | Tech | World | Gaming | More (@ClustZContact) reportedXbox just hit reset. Hard. 🎮 Microsoft is cutting ~4,800 jobs — 2.1% of its workforce. Xbox alone faces ~3,200 cuts through FY27, with 1,600 roles gone immediately. And four studios are leaving Microsoft’s gaming empire. This isn’t just “layoffs.” It’s Xbox admitting the old playbook broke. Game Pass + multi-platform + buying studios was supposed to make Xbox unavoidable. Instead, Xbox got stuck with: - lower margins - weaker console momentum - rising hardware costs - too many management layers - too many bets chasing too little return Translation? Microsoft doesn’t want to own every cool studio anymore. It wants fewer experiments, bigger franchises, cleaner execution, and businesses that actually print money. That means more focus on Minecraft, Candy Crush, Call of Duty-scale IP, PC, mobile, cloud, and subscription economics that don’t bleed quietly in the background. The AI angle is subtle but important: Microsoft says these roles aren’t being replaced by AI. But AI is clearly changing where Big Tech spends money. Less headcount in slow-growth units. More capital toward AI infrastructure, cloud, automation, and high-margin software. For Xbox, the next chapter probably looks less like a console war… and more like a platform war. Xbox everywhere. Fewer studios. More discipline. More pressure on Game Pass. And maybe fewer “passion projects” unless they can scale. Bad news for nostalgia. Good news for Microsoft’s margins. Scary news for any studio that doesn’t look like a platform. Unpopular opinion: This reset was coming the moment Xbox started acting like Netflix without Netflix-level pricing power. Follow @ClustzContact for more tech stories that explain what the headline is really hiding. #Xbox #Microsoft #Layoffs

Alvin Russell 𓆋 (@FearsomeLLC) reportedIf you're being disruptive, that's a loud music and inconsiderate ******* problem, not a video game problem. Just, wear ******* headphones. But the only people who don't do that are literally boomers. The amount of unmuted Candy Crush I've heard from women pushing 70 is absurd.
