This thing took so much work, from so many people - RPGs have so many little working parts, and we did so much to try to make this world feel alive. The team is just vibrating right now, seeing how this all goes, but for now it's great to just have it out there, in people's hands.

fetterman is going to return but like the mountain in game of thrones; angrier, weirder, frankensteinedly groaning and being shepherded around by a cia guy who seems to be able to command him wordlessly

worth noting disc 130 actually has MORE & much earlier concept art for Mega Man Legends, including multiple pieces with untranslated artist comments.

For some reason the media is not mentioning that the reason GTA6 is being delayed is they fired 40 staff over threats of unionization and now the rest of their staff are revolting

unfortunately, belief and desire are woefully intertwined, and even the best of us (me) get seduced into a false reality where death of Dersh is an old fashioned pay-per-view party
Just in case you were expecting something wild tonight, this viral screenshot was fake.

I like to make players “Juggle,” starting with several very simple interactions which the player is then forced to constantly prioritize. This works best when the interactions take place at/have effects that operate at different “time scales,” i.e 5 seconds, 20 seconds, 40 seconds
What's your number one personal game design principle? And even better - does it have a cool name?

okay so the company who made the game is, unfortunately, the IBM for this era's nazis. their technology helps identify and obliterate families from the sky, for the racist masses baying for blood. that IS true. however: the game runs at a smooth 60fps, and has an epic parry-system
