I got to sit down over coffee to speak with @therianamp.bsky.social and @godfree.bsky.social on how I'm thinking about @xbox.com and the XP announcement. Incredibly rewarding chat, and I'm hopeful there are some good discussions to be earned from here. www.youtube.com/watch?v=fnyl...

Do I happen to know anyone (managers are fair game too) here who specializes in content around Mods, Game Development, and level creation in games like: Minecraft Roblox Bethesda Titles Fortnite Levels Battlefield Portal Preferably creators who build or feature levels daily/weekly.

I LOVED Nioh 3. It hit such a high note for me. I do wish it had a bit of a rouge like mode for fun (Or a bloody palace)

To this day, Devil May Cry is one of the few franchises that lets you cut through this many enemies with style

hello I am modern aaa game designer. the shareholders told me to make the game longer. I do not wish to make the game longer. they told me to make the game longer or I lose job. I make the player collect 6 potatoes for 5% damage resistance. The shareholders are happy. I've been laid off.

You've never played a deckbuilder like Shroom and Gloom. You've never played a dungeon crawler like Shroom and Gloom. You've never played anything like Shroom and Gloom. Out September 10.

For my newest video I took people's assumptions about game development and... addressed them! Including why crunch actually happens, how much money game developers make, and the unique way that making games 'ruins them' for you: youtu.be/WnfKzdTUjtw?...

I grew up packing my own lunch since the 3rd grade. I didn’t grow up with notes in my bag or excitement about what was waiting for me. Now, as the dad who’s handling the “lunch ceremony" I am starting to use that to get them to try new foods. Does anyone else have memories of these early years?

The more I played the MW4 Beta, the more I recognized these insights into my play preferences. 1) It really is my favorite competitive FPS 2) I need to be playing in hardcore I realize that COD satisfies my gripes with many modern shooters: Very little downtime, and non-committal progression

I see a few comments from people who feel just as confused as I was when I saw this reveal. I thought it was a new IP. Why didn't take the engine and make it more "monster hunter." That would have been just fine. Expand on the world and other (cooler) characters

Watching my daughter's reaction to Kingdom hearts is literally bringing a tear to my eye. I wondered what she might think of the franchise and I've been waiting till she could read a little better and now I recognize this is going to be one hell of a ride for her.

Fair game. I remember being rabid when Advent children came out but then with these remakes all of the magic and the excitement just didn't hit. I don't know what it is. I resonated far more with Final Fantasy XIV and 16

Chef Andy Lunique @andylunique.bsky.social · 13/08/2026

it really is everything. The best moments in that game are slowed down by "stop watch this scene" "stop slowly interact with this item" "Stop and play this mini game" "stop and buy upgrades" I don't know if anyone has done it but actually "I am playing this game" playtime feels like 25% of the game

Final Fantasy 7 Remake and Rebirth. I tried, I reaaaallly tried but the game just stops me from playing way too much to enjoy.

It's been lovely every year and it's one of the few shows that doesn't bring the same anxiety as the others (at least for creators). CCG, Room to play, Theme park in the backyard and the ability to chat. It's hard to deny it's my fav

The kids have their own playroom, their own bedrooms, the entire living room, the yard, the bouncy house castle, the dining room that we converted to just art and no screens and somehow they are all in my office literally right next to me as I try to play Doom 😂

Hi. I am aware of a developer looking for creators and streamers who enjoy roguelite deckbuilders and narrative/novel based games. Nothing too crazy is needed; just looking for a handraise or a tag for folks who are down for the genre.

That even works with the lore, on 3 separate occasions, we've spoken about their intelligence agency in China, AND we've met other agents. It works SO well.
