I'll be speaking at the @gameuxsummit.com in Antwerp, Belguim in early September!
I'm going to share my experience on how to apply Object-Oriented UX to break up complex game systems and unlock more seamless workflows with development teams.
If you are in Antwerp that week, I'd love to meet up!

Don't worry, it'll all *surely* trickle-down at one point. 🥲
"The top 10% of US households now hold 87% of all US stocks owned by households, with the top 1% alone owning 50%."

Went to my first MTG Commander Night yesterday. Played two of my precons, I couldn't do anything in one game cause I just did not draw any Forest lands, proc-ed real hard the second game, but took pity on another player and then he wiped me. Lesson learned.
Also won a Cowboy Bebop promo card! 10/10

Regardless of the outcome, these boys are absolute champions <3

Wait, wait, wait, Resonance of Fate got a 4K PC remaster!?
This is one of *the* weirdest JRPGs ever and, yes, while brutally hard to learn, it does so many novel things that you HAVE to try it out.

This is such a weird pull since its technically AAA but had a quiet initial release, but Resonance of Fate rules so much. What if a John Woo JRPG with the vibe of old 00's anime like Bebop or Trigun and some *sicko mode* gun customization?

Putting Hunter’s March pretty early on as a path for players who really want to push themselves to get used to it was a smart decision imo. It’s funny, I also feel like realizing that alternate crests exist made me just want to commit to the angled down-attack harder.
