what happens when the money stops half-constructed data centers leaking rainwater from the rafters

so much enjoying the stories about enormous data centers being built in rural Louisiana & stuff that I could not help substacking about it. this despite the fact that my substack is nominally for narrative design stuff. WHATEVER!!! no rules

Crysta, the 2nd SUPERVIVE Hunter I got to work on from the very beginning of her development, is coming out tomorrow!!

I can't wait for players to hear Crysta's VO, and I can't wait to share more details about her story!

I am not trying to be cruel but I agree: it is an enormously bad time to be trying to break into games. It’s a bad time to be a senior+ in games even, & I don’t see it improving soon. By all means, keep making art you care about, but it’s so unlikely to be a β€œpay the bills” career at this point.

Hello! I’m looking for work, ideally in an editor role. It’s been an honor to work with so many talented professionals, and a pleasure to meet so many amazing community members, in my 19 years at BioWare. I’m so grateful to all of you.

I'm now looking for a new writing/narrative position. It's been a privilege to work with so many amazing devs over my 20 years at BioWare, and I will cherish the memories of the wonderful folks in the community I've met along the way. Thank you all.

this is insane, you're so talented & from what i can tell any place would be lucky to have you. it really has been a bleak couple of years.

Voice session this week for the new #SUPERVIVE Hunter launching in March. Stoked. I also just finished a first draft of the script for the Hunter after that. Still can't believe I get to invent, write, and record 12 of these this year! πŸ˜‚ The team is flying!! What a life!!!
