OFF really is an atmospheric masterpiece of a game. I was a little nervous about the new soundtrack for the remake, but it captures the eerie vibes of the original. + I can appreciate it as its own thing.

definitely 😌

There are several reasons an organization may lose its institutional memory (called institutional forgetting in scholarship), but mass layoffs are one of biggest factors.

VOLITION - No. Not a disaster. Weave this into the story of you. Walk out of its *ruins*. Save those who still can be saved -- *I'm* on your side.

It’s so cool how all of your friends at a particular studio can get laid off, super cool.

Unions are the only way forward to preserve our industry. The bosses are burning it all down for a quick buck.

I got laid off from Firaxis today. I helped ship Marvel's Midnight Suns DLC and Civilization VII, and would love to talk to you about mid level Producer roles.
