My debut for @gamesradarplus.bsky.social is all about the Final Fantasy 7 Remake trilogy and how we are unlikely to witness anything of its magnitude ever again unless triple-A development stops eating itself alive. www.gamesradar.com/games/final-...

Hire Ashely for her extremely good words and invaluable voice. Ashley is truly one of the most talented writers out there, and I’ve always greatly admired her work (even before she was at GR+). I never tire of reading her insightful, passionate words, and she’s such a wonderful person to work with

Last but not least for today: @heatherteacup.bsky.social spoke one final time this year *after* launch with The Outer Worlds 2 director Brandon Adler.

Obsidian hopes to stand alongside CD Projekt and Larian by making "best-in-class" reactive RPGs, says The Outer Worlds 2 director: "I don't know if we're there yet, but I'd love to get there"

I've done a lot of interviews this year, but speaking with @hellocakebread.bsky.social about @ivyroadgames.bsky.social's Wanderstop (which is a game I haven't stopped thinking about all year) was a big highlight for me. What a gem it is. www.gamesradar.com/games/simula...

Just when it looks like cozy games may have reached their peak, they keep getting bigger and more popular. Here's my story on why and how for The Guardian, including lots of amazing insights from folks across the industry:

Love this piece from @heatherteacup.bsky.social One of my favourite things about the horror genre is its sheer scope. Come and play with us! www.gamesradar.com/games/simula...

I knocked over my Lego bonsai tree a little while ago and I still can't figure out how it fits back together. I'm stumped (as is my bonsai 😭).

It's almost time for my favorite seasonal film, completely unaltered and exactly as depicted in this promotional image.
A promotional photo from A Muppet's Christmas Carol, showing Michael Caine surrounded by titans of the industry like Kermit, Gonzo, Miss Piggy, and Rizzo the Rat. I have added grumpus heads over all of the characters except Tiny Tim. Chandlo is Kermit to Snorpy's Miss Piggy. Lizbert is Fozziwig, Cromdo is Scrooge, Filbo is Gonzo/Charles Dickens, and Beffica is Rizzo the Rat.

Great piece from @heatherteacup.bsky.social really making the most of an excellent sounding trip to visit Obsidian! This finally sold me on Avowed. And there's plenty more to come from the access as we roll out this month's packed Big Preview! www.gamesradar.com/games/rpg/de...
