Miss April 🇺🇦🇰🇷🦁 (@_midori_me_) reported@SarcasmStardust If Candy Crush was the only thing stopping me from having kids I would’ve had one 15 years ago. I haven’t played it at all since then, nor any of its cousins. I don’t play any mobile games & rarely console games. Too busy working.

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?

Kynnigos (@kynnigos) reported@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

Ellie 🎀 (@maxdeploy) reported@onlykiriko fortnite invented the modern battle pass in 2018. candy crush has had daily login rewards since 2012. epic is reverse-engineering the games they replaced
-
Rob (@SamuraiPizzaRob) reported@conrat4567 Using the term “non gamers” in your own tweet sort of helps make the point that attitudes have not really shifted that much. Which is half the problem. Someone can play Candy Crush every day on their commute and will still say ‘oh my know I’m not one of *those* people’.

Sir Faxmachine (@SirFaxmachine) reported@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.

✌️ (@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

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

Kai - Briefing Block (@briefing_block_) reported$MSFT ’s Xbox Reset Is Bigger Than 3,200 Layoffs Microsoft is cutting roughly 3,200 jobs from Xbox, about one-fifth of the division, and the market should not file this under ordinary tech cost discipline. This looks more like a failed growth model being forcibly repriced. Xbox CEO Asha Sharma put it bluntly in the internal memo: “Our business today is not healthy.” Then the line that matters: “We must reset XBOX.” The real issue is Game Pass Microsoft spent years trying to turn Xbox into a subscription flywheel. Buy studios, add content, push Game Pass, smooth revenue, increase lifetime value, and make gaming look more like recurring software. That was the theory. The problem is the numbers never matched the ambition. Game Pass was reportedly expected to reach around 77 million subscribers this year. It is closer to 30 million. That gap is not a rounding error. It tells you the product did not scale anywhere near the internal model Microsoft was underwriting. M&A did not fix the economics The Activision Blizzard deal was supposed to deepen the content moat and make Game Pass harder to ignore. Instead, Microsoft is now selling or spinning off studios, cutting more than 350 additional people from payroll, and publishing fewer games. That is not expansion mode. That is portfolio triage. Sharma is shifting capital toward the franchises that actually matter: Minecraft, Candy Crush, Fallout. Everything else has to earn its place. The margin told management the truth Xbox revenue fell in the March quarter, and the division’s profit margin was just 3% for the fiscal year that ended in June. For a company like Microsoft, that is a brutal number. It is especially brutal when the parent company is pouring capital into AI infrastructure, where the market is already demanding proof of returns. Low-margin gaming experiments become harder to defend when Azure and AI are carrying the equity story. The stock read This is probably not a Microsoft thesis-breaker. Xbox is not the core reason investors own MSFT. But it is a useful signal about capital discipline. Nadella is not letting weak consumer assets hide behind the strength of enterprise cloud. The bottom line: these layoffs are not the reset. They are the evidence that the old Xbox strategy already failed.

mmm...lemonheads (@mmm_lemonheads) reported@PiereChangstein @TheJFreakinC This issue is, obviously, far too complex for your feeble brain. The legislators that passed the VRA would look upon you as they would a child - wonderous but woefully ill equipped to grasp the gravity of the subject matter, and the moment. Perhaps a round of Candy Crush?

Lensar Dawn (@Lensar_dawn) reported@MR3Dev It's because dev teams are bloated with a bunch of fake girl boss jobs for non-gamers. Because so many devs now are non-gamers, they can't compete in the arena of ideas regarding design and gameplay. Cause the only game they ever played was Candy Crush. So they instead focus on every possible thing possible EXCEPT gameplay because they don't understand it. This is why we get such a push for accessibility. "Blind people aren't competitive in our racing game, how can we solve this?" Or "some people have anxiety, how do we make it easier for them to complete all the achievements, too?" These non-gaming girl bosses scour the internet looking for feedback and complaints they can champion like they're feeding the poor or saving the world. This is why we end up with 15 page options screens, because a girl boss found the one person n the world who has a specific edge case issue and so she advocated for an obscure option until real devs finally gave in to shut her up. Or maybe you're making a card game, but non-gaming girl bosses like Anita Sarkeesian demand you add a "phobia mode" for people who might be triggered by the names of certain cards. When you're trying to ship a game and you're carry 30-50% of a dev team focused on everything EXCEPT the gameplay experience itself, you can start to understand why games are so ******* expensive to make.

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.

Katyayani Shukla (@aibytekat) reported1. 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.

ademiji💗 (@j1s0l4_) reportedThis is such a non-issue, but I was playing candy crush the other day. I was in a challenge that I was very close to winning, and I had a timed booster, I'll lose both if I lose a level. Wasted all my hard-earned gold bars on extra moves on this stupid level

Koko210 (@Koko21100) reported@cappytainswag @shitpost_2049 They play games as much as your auntie plays Candy Crush imo. Not judging, play what you want, but they dismiss the entire OS because their 2-3 zoomer sweat farms are purposely blocked on it. People who play gameS plural would not have many issues at all.

Void (@ImaginaryVoid) reportedAn anon post rexosted by BAP and other anons just got taken down for “violating the rules” when it was calling Ben Sasse totally out of touch for saying “candy crush is the problem” ending with “kill yourself” It wasn’t even his account, it was a 60 minutes clip, we can’t even use edgy quips to express frustration anymore New regime same as old regime (except the new ones rules are arbitrary)

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.

Petri Kuittinen (@KuittinenPetri) reported@MiaAI_lab I have been long time arguing that we are approaching situation where most of the models, including the best local models, are good enough for most tasks. As the models improve in agentic usage & coding it will be increasingly more more expensive & difficult to test them. They will all do pretty good Tetris, Flappy Birds or Candy Crush Saga clone etc. I feel guilt that I have been testing Ainiux more or less just ad hoc there and there. My recent 6 different tests on a multi-million lines of code base is not enough. I would need to do hundreds of tests like that, but that would consume far more time and token credits that I have. While theoretically a solo developer can create something very large and complex, he/she will not likely have the resources to test and finetune it as much the big best funded labs have. This means the leading AI development will remain to capital intensive. Those who have capital will have a massive advantage. They can deploy swarm of tens of thousands of AI agents to do the work for them - those working in loop graph testing, verifying, benchmarking and improving each other's work. I feel we are soon at this stage they will start self-improving, assuming you have these kind of resources. I'm afraid nobody here in Europe has.

Participator (@NickGomenis) reported@LateNightCandi_ 20-30% And im not including women who play mobile games like candy crush. Talking about real games. And I would actually agree except the last about 3-4 years has seen a massive industry wide push in high profile games and studios that feels 100% forced New ips, no issue

Bowserguy62 (@Bowserguy621) reported@jaderants @AI_EmeraldApple Majority of gamers are men..... They include candy crush in those demographics which skews into all the women who play it on their phones and iPads.......
