"I have been mortal, and some part of me is mortal yet. I am no longer like the others- for no unicorn was ever born who could regret. But now I do, I regret."

Been meaning to draw a tribute for The Last Unicorn! My fav book & movie. 💜

Thats not what he said. I found this line a heartfelt plea for patience. At this point, what else is there for us to give?

In Castlevania SotN, there was an item called Shield Rod that granted a different spell based on the shield you equip. I always thought this was so cool, so I added an ability called Holy Shield based on it. Every shield in the game has its own spell for Holy Shield. #srpg #tacticsrpg #indiedev

What's awful about the closure in particular is that one failed project, especially one aligned with a greater push inside Sony for live-service games, should not be enough to sink a studio inside that ecosystem. I do not believe that there were no pitches for a worthwhile project for a whole year.

Also, I can only assume a studio with as much talent as Bluepoint would want to lead a project all their own instead of (lovingly, brilliantly, better than anyone before them) recreating works from years past. If that had to be a live-service GoW game, I can imagine that sounding like a cool deal.

I'm #1 live-service hater but I don't want to discount any of the heart or passion that any members of Bluepoint may have had for their canceled project. These projects aren't always foisted on developers, and even when they are, the challenge can be rewarding.

Screenshot of a CNN segment shared by Acyn. A split-screen shows commentator Lydia Moynihan on the left and Kevin O’Leary on the right during a heated exchange. The chyron reads, “Obama: Dems need to avoid scolding and ‘virtue-signaling.’” The post quotes O’Leary referencing China and concentration camps, and McGowan responding about West Virginia.

The Runefencer paradigm summons magic cannons that any ally can activate. You can get all kinds of different effects - some summon damaging projectiles, others will teleport you around or grant random buffs. Buggiest class of skills in the game XD #srpg #tacticsrpg #indiedev #madewithunity

I think a properly min-maxed giant mom build would actually outdo giant dad at current patch. since motm boosts HP by 10% and motf boosts equip load by 5%, it's probably better to put extra points into endurance to make up the gap.

A fabricated statement from Nintendo of America's Twitter account addressing a fictitious scenario in which the Earth's oxygen supply is presumed to be depleting at a rapid pace, leaving humanity with mere days to live.

"This is Miyamoto. On behalf of everyone who is employed at Nintendo Co. LTD and its subsidiaries, we deeply mourn the countless human lives which will be lost due to the depletion of the global oxygen supply. To anyone who has ever played one of our games, we are eternally grateful to have created long-lasting fun and memories for you. To ease the suffering of families and children across the world, the Mario Kart World game for the Nintendo Switch 2 system will be available as a free download on Nintendo eShop for the foreseeable future. We hope this small gesture of kindness will ease the pain as humanity prepares for a worst-case scenario."

The statement is distastefully plastered with logos for Nintendo and Nintendo Switch 2, as well as with a render of Mario from Mario Kart World.

Had a dream that there was global panic about the world running out of oxygen, Nintendo was the only video game company to make a statement about it, and the internet collectively spent its final hours on Earth debating whether Nintendo was being genuine or not

This style of light doesn't really appear in animation anymore. You know it when you see it -- it's bright, hot and almost dangerous.

I don't want to own Dragon Age: Origins truck. Dragon Age: Origins truck should roam free across Central Europe.

But I want to see Dragon Age: Origins truck. To experience it. To know such beauty still exists in our world, crafted by hands not so different than mine, to know it is able to endure.

Let both of these games be a lesson in internal feedback and sentiment. You must never rest on any laurels. Nothing will ever be owed to you. And the only people with the power to right these ships are the ones at the helm.

I believe success is bc of the team, and failure is bc of leadership.

I never had a lot of confidence in Avengers, though. It was a wildly ambitious idea for a game and I did not feel project leadership understood how ambitious it was. Player reaction to that game was a kind of grief I had already processed (and perhaps shared too loudly). But I am still proud of it.
