There’s a skill in Tainted Grail that adds 0.05 seconds of invincibility to your dodge, and it makes me wonder how many iterations the designers went through to settle on such a precise value.

Ah! I was wondering if anybody felt the same way. Especially the location in the 3rd pic instantly gave me a Riven vibe.

I'm really enjoying Tainted Grail: The Fall of Avalon so far. Great work on the atmosphere.

That’s one project even Ubisoft employees don’t understand why it wasn’t cancelled yet.

It's true that scrolling through the comments section under posts from popular accounts on Twitter became an absolute nightmare. Glad we don't have that kind of interactions here.

I imagine a well organized AA studio with around 50 people would probably finish a project like a PoP remake in 2-2.5 years.

Based on my experience at Ubi, the company is too bloated. Too many people and studios around the world work on a single project. A simple problem that could be solved in 10 minutes of discussion in a small studio can take 2 weeks to resolve because of this. Imagine that for an entire project.

I don’t know if it´s because my Twitter account was shadowbanned because it was inactive for a year, or if all the cool people moved on elsewhere (mostly here).
I guess both.

Since this year, I decided to post the same contents on both Bluesky and Twitter on the same time. And for some reasons I have 10 times more interactions here, despite having 10 times less followers.

We don’t have HL3 but at least we have the HL community making gold.

I love it when Youtube recommends videos tailored to my tastes.

“So ugly its almost pretty“ is a wonderful way to describe my taste in urban landscape.

The way this game jumps between cozy atmospheres, shlocky B-movie vibes and legitimately creepy horror sequences is very unique. It's the one Wolfenstein game I keep coming back.

I love that the devs are specifying Hitman Contracts as an inspiration. Not Silent Assassin, not Blood Money, but Contracts.

A PS2 style stealth game inspired by Splinter Cell, MGS2 and Hitman Contracts? Sign me up!!

Castel Meur: An adorable little house between two rocks in Brittany.

I was rewatching The Illusionist (2010) to capture some ref and I swear every frame of it is just perfection.

Thanks a lot!
We're hiring!

Thank you!
I didn't work on it for over a year because the life was busy, but I'm planning to finish it this year.
