I am proud and joyful beyond measure to join my colleagues in this effort to forge a mighty union. We, the workers who make D&D and Magic: the Gathering, are organizing to keep two of the best games of all time healthy and strong. Solidarity forever <3

Very mentally good to occasionally treat your home city like you would a place you’re vacationing. Give yourself blocks of unstructured wandering time. Plan one interesting cultural activity per day. Drink a beer in the afternoon, talk to strangers who seem amenable to it

My main Resident Evil opinion is that I think it would have been a lot better if every scene hadn’t turned into an I Think You Should Leave bit halfway through

Nope! EOE was set more or less contemporaneous with everything happening in the Multiverse.

Last night at the party someone asked how long it would take a cup of coffee to cool down to drinking temp if you heated it to a million degrees (and it didn’t instantly vaporize for some reason). Two absolutely hammered chemical engineers went at it for a while and left their notes in the kitchen

I know not with what weapons World War III will be fought, but World War IV will be fought with some sort of vibrating Mega-Knife

Climate change has devastated America’s coastline, flooding the streets of New York—and in this new world of risen sea levels, there’s nowhere to hide. Coming this summer… JAWS 5: SHARK IN THE CITY

Last but not least: thank you to the players of the best motherfuckin game on the planet. Whether you’re a diehard Vorthos or a tournament grinder or a kitchen table player who’s just starting to recognize a name or two—stick around, we’ve got some extremely sick shit on the way

Thanks to my colleagues, many of whom are not on Bluesky, for their tremendous support, whether that meant shoehorning legends into the card set or redesigning story spotlights at the last minute or doing an entire second job on top of your job because you love magic story (looking at you, podcast)

There are so many fantastic authors who helped us get here as well—to @seananmcguire.bsky.social, @arsenaultrivera.bsky.social, @akemidawnbowman.bsky.social, @casskhaw.bsky.social, @valerievaldes.bsky.social and everyone else who’s had to deal with me mucking around in your drafts: thank you

I want to thank @alisontheperson.bsky.social both for bringing this tremendous conclusion to life, and for her early writing on Jace and Vraska, squeezed in-between meetings and on nights and weekends, which is the bedrock on which this story rests

Roy Graham @grayhaem.bsky.social · 10/09/2026
And that’s a wrap on the story we started three years ago, with Wilds of Eldraine. This one had a special place in my heart—it’s the end of the first arc I had the honor of planning start to finish. So thanks, if you’ve been reading all this time (or even if you just came in at the end)

enough with the power-scaling discourse! as Magic story lead I could very easily defeat Jace

Folks, we call him “the most powerful mind mage in the Multiverse” for a reason

One of the earliest questions Alison and I knew we wanted to explore for Reality Fracture’s story was a pretty simple one: what if Jace stopped holding back? You get a lot of that in this episode.

I certainly agree that it's industry-driven as a way to capture players long term, but I've heard too many players complain about lack of a progression systems at least to think it's a one way street. some people love the cage man idk

Roy Graham @grayhaem.bsky.social · 02/09/2026
why does everything have progression system that will take me six months to get through! who actually enjoys the "daily log-in" attendance check! why is it considered fun to manage resources in a thinly veiled Microsoft Excel simulator!

I don't have a lot of time but I feel the demon (longform game writing) calling me again. is there any existing work about the jobification of games? I feel like an insane person
