I think it would be cool if games with raytracing / DLSS didn't keep reenabling these settings every time I relaunch despite me having already sorted my graphics settings

Getting stuck causes players to explore the world.

Dying causes players to think about what they're doing.

An "impossible" situation causes players to learn how the game works and eventually achieve the impossible.

We need to be able to design *some* games around these fundamental ideas.

It appears our beloved Rebecca Heineman has now passed on. She lived her life in such a way as to leave a trail of joy in her wake next to a long list of creative accomplishments. She was a fixture in many communities and a titan in games history. Becky was the best kind of person.

I engaged with discogs' wishlist system hoping it would help me save on shipping by finding me sellers that I can get more than one thing from but now it just sends me daily emails telling me that this one store has 6 different copies of Dig Me Out.

I want people to know that when I implement something mean or cruel in a level it's either a total accident or I'm laughing maniacally and rubbing my hands together while I do it.

reading the southern reach books and then playing ambrosia sky is really making me want to rewatch scavenger's reign.
