Currently loving World of Warcraft and feeling hopeful for FFXIV again.

The year is 2026 and suddenly, World of Warcraft has its claws in me again.

Happy to share that I've joined CD PROJEKT RED as a Senior QA Analyst on Project Sirius, a multiplayer title set in the Witcher universe. Almost done with my first week here and I'm beyond stoked to be a part of this team. 🥳

Have not been able to stop thinking about Dispatch since finishing my second playthrough. What a game.

I hope you enjoy it! Have fun with it :)

On the same boat. First time since I started playing Destiny where I feel zero FOMO or desire to jump in. :' )

see also: game criticism imo

A tweet from @katie_campione that reads:
Film criticism, when done well, is supposed to make you think deeper about a film and engage with it in more complex ways. It is not really meant to decide for the entire population whether or not they should see something. You all have agency. You get to decide that yourself.

Mecha Break has got to be the most stylish game I've played in a while. Everything from the loading screens into matches, to menu navigation, to visuals in actual gameplay exudes confidence. They knew exactly what they wanted to accomplish with this game, and they did.

What really gets me about AI art besides the everything is just how fucking ugly it is. It's ugly, maaan. AND it's stealing AND it's killing the environment? Brother ewwww.

I read the original post as "Knuckles" and now I can't unsee Knuckles the Echidna with "Bena" and "Dryl" on each hand. 😭

I am legit surprised he was able to find employment again after dismantling the Blackhawks from within

So I guess if you're already playing or thinking about it and we're mutuals on here - hit me up. We're on Vowbreaker, Sietch Fajr.

By "top" I mean it had a bunch of people grinding since day 1 (including us) so it was #2 on the Landsraad for our server these last two weeks. Then it completely fell apart and half the guild left last night.

Gabriel Bera @gabebera.bsky.social · 18/06/2025

Truly wish I knew more people playing Dune Awakening that I could group up with. My buddy and I were on a top guild that just completely fell apart last night, so now we're deep desert ready but guildless. 😅 Would much prefer to be playing this with people I know.

Gabriel Bera @gabebera.bsky.social · 17/06/2025

I was in a guild that was #2 in the Landsraad for Atreides the last two weeks. Many DD excursions. But it just fell apart yesterday and half of its members left to form their own guild. 😂 Would much rather be playing with people I actually know.

Gabriel Bera @gabebera.bsky.social · 17/06/2025

So wish we were on the same server, man. 😭

That line specifically is so real. First time I ever got a draft of a novel edited I was aghast at the kinds of questions posed and the things I was being asked to think about and expand on. 😅

Found out the hard way that downed ships have a timer before worms eat them whole in Dune Awakening. So my first death to the worm just resulted in me losing all of my main gear, including the unique sword you get from finishing the swordmaster quest. GGs. 🤡

Gabriel Bera @gabebera.bsky.social · 09/06/2025

Yeaaah, I'm thinking I really love this game.

Jesus, I'm glad you're okay!

Leveled up at the end of tonight's session and rolled a 9 on my hit dice. 50 HP gaming.

Went for a walk, got some froyo, about to play some Rematch. Good Friday night. 🫡

Bring Me To Life is such an absolute banger of a song. I'm glad it's back hard in 2025 with the Devil May Cry show and now Elden Ring Nightreign. 😂

My 11-year-old nephew after I asked him what grade he'll be in next school year: "7th grade. Officially unc status." 💀

Hey I'm glad it was the least expensive fix at least! I rolled pretty poorly earlier last week and had a $1200 repair myself. 😅

Been generally using social media less over the last month which has actually been kinda nice. But since I last posted here I have: -Turned 31 -Drove to VA to spend my birthday with family and I'm still hanging around here -Played the Dune Awakening beta and absolutely cannot wait for launch

Don't let a motherfucker steal your joy. Watch cartoons, build LEGO kits, get your friends together and play board games, coo at your pets and call them your precious stinky babies, blow off dandelion fluff, whatever sparks joy. Cringe is dead, be free.

Love the data-driven insight while simultaneously fearing for the future of this industry and questioning whether I should even continue to put so much time and effort into it when everything is so uncertain. 😅

Somehow, this app is very quickly becoming just as obnoxious as Twitter.

000

Gabriel Bera @gabebera.bsky.social · 25/04/2025

Oh damn 😭 fair enough. I'm typically a big melee guy but played bow in the original so I stuck to that here and will likely do magic next cause I can't get over the melee feel. I'd hope as you level up the combat starts to feel at least a bit better for you!

020

Gabriel Bera @gabebera.bsky.social · 25/04/2025

It's definitely dated! I'd say my only suggestion is to try different weapons (like if you've been playing melee, try bows or magic) and also try 3rd person view. I disliked 3P in the original but now it somehow doesn't feel as bad.
