You don't give people mobility options with painted bike gutters. You do it with this. πŸ‘‡

I like how this behind-the-scenes recording of Duel of the Fates offers a much more interesting mix of the music where you can much more clearly hear the hammers and bells, and the heart-pounding of the string section.

That room must've sounded like it was filled with thunder.

lots of great discussion in the comments here, and obviously applies well to other industries.. cough cough c-suite film studios etc

my feeling on these large studios tanking after one game is there are creatives out there who don’t realize they’ve aged out of the industry they previously were part of success stories in. the market these days is wildly more complex than it was even a decade ago, and they probably lost the pulse.

I haven't played all of it, but the remaster is such a great walk down memory lane of it! I also love that it's actually a true remaster and not a remake

Another reason to get off of fossil fuels and get behind public transit, cycling, walkable communities and more.

obv not an emo indie game, but just thinking about the way Pittsburgh makes a phenomenal cinematic city/setting in the 2012 Jack Reacher film, another genre that really benefits from those untapped locales

Let me hold your hand when I say this: we don't have to set every artsy emo indie game in the PNW or PNW-adjacent biomes. It's all starting to bleed together yknow.

Ralph McQuarrie (1929-2012) left us 14 years ago today, but his influence continues to cast its shadow over sci-fi. πŸ––

At the VFX Oscar Bake-Off this year, there was an audible 'OMG' gasp from the pro audience at two points in the 'Jurassic World Rebirth' presentation from VFX supervisor David Vickery.

They are in this new reel from ILM:

I've seen discourse surrounding artists "peaking" at 30 and I just want to say don't fall for that trap!
I'll be 45 this year and I don't think I've ever been more resolute about my work.
Existence and perseverance is art; you can not PEAK yourself. Every iota of creation you make is a miracle.β˜„οΈ
