Hard agree on ZZZ combat > Genshin, no question! I wish it were more Genshin style open world though

Sheesh. As a freshly looking for work game dev, one of my most IMMEDIATE sources of anxiety is β€œwhich 1000 hour genre that I love but am a few years out of date on / unfamiliar with the endgame of do I need to most rapidly skill up in for the purpose of interviews”

Picture of Marjane Satrapi alongside a quote from her. The quote reads:

The world is not divided into countries. The world is not divided between East and West. You are American, I am Iranian, we don't know each other, but we talk together and we understand each other perfectly. The difference between you and your government is much bigger than the difference between you and me. And the difference between me and my government is much bigger than the difference between me and you.

And our governments are very much the same...

- Marjane Satrapi, Iranian-French graphic novelist

Thinking about this quote from Persepolis creator Marjane Satrapi again.

Riot's mistake could be your company's chance to nab an all time professional, please reach out to Steven if you know of any Senior Game/Systems Design opportunities!

Well, let me be clear- it was a β€œthese roles on this project are being eliminated, please apply for other projects via our internal job board” kind of conversation; but I wouldn’t mind a more managed transition.

Astra knows what it sounds like when a tv show ends, because that’s her best opportunity to encourage us for a walk πŸ˜‚

Every interaction I have ever had with Steven has been delightful. He is truly delighful on so many levels.

He is also an incredible DM and game master, which for folks who have ever tried to excercise that muscle know, is more work (people, organization, creative) than any job you have ever done.

I still believe in peace; I still believe that we all, the everyday citizens of every place, deserve to live without fear and chaos imposed upon us by our leaders.
