New weapon idea: Guardian special reloads to yeet their helmet at enemies. Ricochets off targets, and Guardian catches it back like a Hammer with Perfect Recall. MAKE IT HAPPEN, VIV, I BEG YOU!

It's been a whole year. Some of my friends are still looking for permanent work. I wish we didn't have to live in Trying Times (TM) all the time. But alas, we continue.

Me for like the past month:

Behold, the power of (legally distinct, Solar) Thor

That is BEAUTIFUL!

Ember of Mercy grants restoration when you pick up a firesprite. Also, every time you pick up your hammer after hitting an enemy, it grants Cure.

Facts!

I wish I could use Dragon's Breath with my loadout for these exact reasons, lol.

Here's my current build if you want to see how I put it together. The weapons (besides Devil's Ruin) are flexible, but I haven't found much new gear that fits the synergy I'm going for.

I've also seen a complaint that gating the functionality behind either rapid solar kills or picking up a firesprite is "too restricting" when you have weapons like Devil's Ruin to generate the Firesprites for you. It's a sweet combo, IMO, and I plan on taking it into endgame content.

Devil's Ruin! I get a Firesprite on kill with that weapon and that enables both Forgemaster and Pyrogenesis at the same time.

Too many people are focusing on "<insert other exotic> does more damage" and not realizing that the utility of safely getting healed while eliminating threats from a distance is worth the (arguably minor) damage loss.

People out here really sleeping on Melas Panoplia (Titan exotic that lets you recall your hammer) and I just don't get it. The biggest reason I didn't fully enjoy using the throwing hammer was the danger of picking it back up. This exotic solves that problem AND creates explosions.

We also lost Malcolm-Jamal Warner. We can mourn him too.

The most sobering realization I've had in my career is that it's still possible to feel burnt out while doing a job you enjoy. Never quite found a solution for that one...

Rolled credits on Clair Obscur. No words, what a completely flawless game.

Yep. Pretty nifty.

Received my 2-year stein today and I'm all up in my feels right now...

Happy Edge of Fate launch day to my Bungie friends! I know you all worked hard for this, so please enjoy your moment!

Feels incoming

@benstarr.bsky.social 's portrayal of Clive in FFXVI is iconic of course, but I daresay his role in Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is his defining role as a voice actor. Absolutely flawless performance with a beautiful script.

AYO, FROM THE START?!!!

Shoutouts to all my trans friends and acquaintances! Thank you for including me in your journey, and I'll continue being loud about letting you live in peace!

There are many reasons why I stand for trans rights, but I think number one on the list is seeing the before and after pictures of people becoming truly happy and comfortable with themselves. Now THAT is some dopamine!

Literally my exact cycle since like 6 AM today

This is the first seasonal release that I've contributed to since working on the Diablo IV team!
