a screenshot of citizen sleeper 2 featuring a narration. it reads: Time has been pressed into that coin by hands, by fingers. It is a near infinite record of transcient touches, each one shaping it in some small way. It is torn and worthless. It is bent and broken. And it is beautiful in all of those things. And so you press your thumb against it, your crooked, calloused thumb. Again and again. Because you are a broken thing, and you have nothing left but that brokenness, and the beauty that shines through it.

a screenshot of the outer worlds 2 sees two characters in a debate. one of them says "actually, an outside opinion might be useful at this juncture. our current topic is whether war is ever justified. for the sake of time, please keep your answer brief. the player's options are: in my opinion, war... is bad. there are times when war is necessary to prevent greater evil from taking place. oh! is that what you were arguing about? I don't have an opinion on war

dispatch’s embargo lifting reminded me of this report from 2019 that included some quotes on telltale post layoffs

www.digitaltrends.com/gaming/unliv...
In addition to all of this, they were offered a full time position at Telltale Games as a texture artist during their 5th year of college, which they would have had to drop out for. The studio said that Hallstedt had submitted “one of the best texture art tests they had ever received.” But the salary offered didn’t reflect that, especially considering the job was based in San Francisco. “They offered me $50,000 a year. Rent for a 1 bedroom at the time averaged out to a bit over $4,000 a month.” “That company deserved to burn with how it treated the finest of our industry there. Literally the best people in games walked in and out of that door every day, and many of them are still hurting from it. Fuck Telltale.”
