"This is a little bit of proof, that you shouldn't be afraid to dig deep into your own lived experiences and culture for video games." –– Remy Siu, #1000xRESIST creative director.

In this exclusive Peabody Conversation, Siu and actress Nhi Do reflect on what winning a Peabody means for #gaming.

i too would like the answer to this question

I’ve only played a couple of Santa Ragione’s games but these former IGF narrative winners are doing work I deeply appreciate. I’ll be playing HORSES, and I hope you will too.

I only know @burgerbecky.bsky.social by reputation but what an incredible reputation it is. Her contributions to the industry and RPGs more generally cannot be overstated. Please consider supporting her and her family.

Hey so, today is my last day at Crystal Dynamics apparently. I joined the company in 2018 to work on Marvel's Avengers and it's been the longest (and best) job I've ever had. It now means I'm looking for work, so if you know of any senior writer/narrative designer positions please send them my way.

im so sorry hannah. you’re an incredible writer.

Again, to every videogame writer who wrote funny emails to read in an immersive sim/etc. where I rolled my eyes and said out loud, "lol like anyone would ever email something this on the nose", again, sorry, I was wrong, life sucks, you nailed it

I think we need to stop calling it empathy and go back to calling it decency. It isn't a favour you're doing someone else, it's you proving that you aren't a fucking ghoul

I'll be in Busan, South Korea next week to attend G-Star! Come see me and @thewritegame.bsky.social on a panel with Casey Al-Kaisy, Ben McCaw, and Dino Patti talking storytelling in games.

If you’re distraught and horrified by the current direction of the United States like I am, I implore you to take a few minutes out of your day to look up what’s on your ballot and where your nearest polling place is, and go vote in your local elections. Change and progress happens at all levels.

Side note: I never could have imagined having the opportunity to visit my mother’s hometown as a game developer. What a fun and disorienting feeling.

The image is a screenshot of the session description of a panel at G-CON Lis Moberly is participating in, “The Multi-Layered Structure of Narrative ― Environment, System, Character.” The description reads, “This session is not simply about one approach to narrative, but about examining how environment, system, and character intersect to shape player experience. Through the perspectives of these four creators from diverse backgrounds, the audience will gain a multidimensional view of both the present and the future of game storytelling.”

Hi folks, I’ll be participating in some narrative chit-chat at G-CON next Thursday, Nov 13th, in Busan, Korea. If you’ll be in Korea next week, we’d love to see you there! :)

I was laid off from Teen Vogue today along with multiple other staffers, and today is my last day.
