In order to avoid that, you need powerful tools like choosing a genre you can tackle, good project management, ego restraint… major learnings you basically need to have gone through before even starting a game

Le Guin on the idea that there is a secret to getting good at writing.

I will dispose of the first myth as quickly as possible. The “secret” is skill. If you haven’t learned how to do something, the people who have may seem to be magicians, possessors of mysterious secrets. In a fairly simple art, such as making pie crust, there are certain teachable “secrets” of method that lead almost infallibly to good results; but in any complex art, such as housekeeping, piano-playing, clothes-making, or story-writing, there are so many techniques, skills, choices of method, so many variables, so many “secrets,” some teachable and some not, that you can learn them only by methodical, repeated, long-continued practice — in other words, by work.

Back on my bullsh

an image that has boxes and a flow chart- GET A NEW IDEA > START A NEW PROJECT > TELL EVERYONE. the pattern repeats circularly, ignoring the box that says FINISH PROJECT

Something I don’t like about gamedev is that I don’t get to know each of my players personally

The heatwave in Europe is so extreme, it's 25–32°F (14–18°C) above normal. You read that right. France recorded it's hottest day ever. The UK had its hottest ever June day. The ground is exceeding 122°F (50°C). People are dying. Tell me again why we shouldn't talk about climate change???

Dear Santa, This year for Prime Day I want the breakup of Amazon as a corporate conglomerate monopoly, with Kindle and Audible being nationalized into a sort of publicly owned internet library funded by a progressive tax on the hyper-rich and an annual stipend for authors.

I like the more bulky ones, as opposed to the taller ones. For the comic fonts: mixing too many styles is arbitrary, would a comic style work for everything? Would stand out, but on the expense of readability

Ubisoft EMBARGOED news to outlets about the layoffs and studio closures, FYI. Employees were told this morning. And then many reached out to us. Companies trying to embargo layoffs and closures might be the most embarrassing thing I've ever seen in my 16 years.
