How can the Mariners even hope to win? Even their city's tower is straight from Temu. #GoJaysGo

I 100% completed Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, and now nothing else feels good enough. @sandfallgames.bsky.social Why have you broken me? Such an amazing title. I can't commend it enough!

So Ghost has a new lead singer? That's what the white smoke from the Cistine Chapel means, right?

Everyone who worked on @atomfall.com should be super proud of themselves. I just rolled credits on it and loved every single second. The gameplay was great, the story was fantastic and whoever did that ending credits music deserves a raise! I know it's not easy to release new IP, but you lot did it!

If 9 hours of @atomfall.com has taught me anything it's that food I find on the floor in a ruined castle is recommended eating. Oh, and Northerners are weird, but I'm a Northerner, so I already knew that. Wyndham just feels like home. Fantastic job @richdmay.bsky.social and team!

Why are books so expensive in Canada? The book I'm reading has a UK RRP of £7.99 (which would be including tax) and a Canadian RRP of $21.95 (with tax payable at the till which would be 5% since provincial tax is rebated, totalling $23.05). This would be £12.45, or almost 56% more. I don't get it.

What's up with that rich, overweight idiot who owns a resort complex & spent his life being greedy & curb stomping the working class? You know, the one who, if he had 2 pennies to rub together, he'd have more cash than brain cells. Wait, I meant Jastor Gallywix from WoW. Who did you think I meant?

Haha, no probs. Yeah, I will have been. I was a part of most things build-related in some way or another. Good times!

Heartbreaking to hear about People Can Fly layoffs after applying yesterday. Why hire if layoffs loomed? Devs aren’t numbers; we have families. For execs, it’s saving money, but for us, it’s wondering if we’ll have a home in the New Year. The industry must do better. We’re game devs, not numbers!

The games industry needs to change to stop things like this - www.pcgamer.com/gaming-indus... - it NEEDS to get better. I was part of the layoffs at Torn Banner but outside of my personal feelings, there's so many talented people looking for work. We work in games because we love it. DO BETTER!
pcgamer.com
More than 300 game developers lost their jobs in one day, just three weeks before Christmas
2023 was bad, but 2024 looks even worse.

Well, that's certainly been a day. Guess I should get some sleep and... not go to work tomorrow? :(

CyberGrim @cybergrim.bsky.social · 03/12/2024
I'm sad to say that today was my last day at Torn Banner, having been affected by the company-wide layoffs. I loved the people & my work there, as well as what we created and I wish everyone the best in their future. As such, I'm open to work in the industry, either in Canada or Remote. Hit me up!

Or give them a heart attack. I remember there was a time on Fable: The Journey (the weird Kinect-only game) that in order to activate the fire powers you said "Flame on!". The Microsoft lawyers nearly had an aneurysm

I did, I was in the Build/SDET team as Senior Build/Release Engineer. So, yeah, I didn't do any of the cool visual or gameplay stuff, but I helped make sure there was something to release! Haha

I bloody loved working on those games. Due, in no small part, to how amazing they looked! Great work!

I wonder why certain people complained about Bill Gates backing the COVID-19 vaccine and suggested it was "mind control", but those same people aren't complaining about Musk's Neuralink being LITERAL mind control?

I'll keep an eye out and my ear to the ground in my usual Games Industry spaces for opportunities buddy. Not much, but I'll do what I can!

CyberGrim @cybergrim.bsky.social · 22/11/2024
Depends on the email. If the email is "can we just get a new branch created" or "it's just a one line change, can I submit this code into the locked submission branch". Then never. Just... no

Icebrood Saga was the last content I played. I agree that it was great! Just started EoD last night.

How are those shorter dev time expacs stacking up against the likes of Heart of Thorns and Path of Fire? Is there as much to do or is it more akin to a living world season but branded as an expac?

Sending this from the Bluesky API using Python. As a nerd, whenever something new pops up I always like to play around with their APIs and do some, generally stupid, stuff. What can I say, it amuses me...

This. I love music but if I'm supposed to be concentrating I can't listen to anything with lyrics as I lose focus. World of Warcraft or Assassin's Creed are my go-to game soundtracks. With Lord of the Rings and Marvel being my movie ones.

It's been a hot minute since I picked up Guild Wars 2 and now I find myself 3 expansions behind? How did that happen?!?

My family and I love to visit castles and historical places in the UK. We live in Canada now, but we still have our trusty English Heritage membership for when we're back home. She's too young to listen to Unruly just yet, but it'll be required reading/listening when she's older for sure!

I know! :'( I'm just hoping that the remaster does well enough to warrant serious thought from the developer about more remasters (Defiance, Blood Omen) and even more games in the universe!

Great quote. Great game series. Can't wait for the remaster!

You know that there are boring characters too, right? Also, this feels too much like "I swear, normally I'm REALLY funny, but I'm trying to tone it down". Sure Dave, sure.

I never went to London often, but you can guarantee that if I were in the city, I'd be there at some point. Aside from my beloved @okcomics.bsky.social , this is the best British comics store by far.

As a history lover, I enjoyed Unruly by David Mitchell and any "Greek Myths Reimagined" books by @stephenfry.bsky.social (Mythos, Heroes, Troy and, now, Odyssey).

Don't forget, if you're coming to Bluesky from the Dead Bird, to download your data - x.com/settings/dow... - and delete your tweets using something like Redact.dev THEN deactivate your account (and don't log back in!). Don't let them use your data once you're not around to protect it!
