Thank *you* for another wonderful game! Beautiful! I do have an old school 5D from my film production days. They’re quite the chunky pieces of gear haha. Appreciate the recc!

Echoes of Sekigahara is wonderful. Yes, it’s more Yōtei. But these narrative beats add so much more weight to Atsu’s overarching journey. Not to mention the added mechanics, new area, and heck, Most Wanted all whip. If this is it for the Ghost series, man. What a killer note to close things out.

Jacob is a generational talent. The way he naturally commands a room with positive, fun energy and maintains it is astonishing. Not to mention, he’s straight up the kindest human with the purest of hearts. Forever grateful to call him a friend and humbled whenever I get the Smash Bros-like invite.

It’s October, so it feels apt to remind you all about the survival horror dungeon crawler that has lived rent-free within Mike's nightmares* for the past year and a half now. *positive

I want to say it cannot be said enough how important it is for other men to say things about this shit. In the moment, or ASAP My first ever game dev event I was sexually harassed (assaulted?) by a Sony exec while all of my coworkers saw and said nothing Please say something, for people that can't

I feel like I have so much I want to say but it’s just this incoherent ramble. But do you know how much it weighs on me to be the one woman on staff at GameSpot? To be one of VERY few women in the industry? To be one of ever fewer moms? To walk into press events and be the *sole* woman?
