Love seeing officially hosted community wikis. GGG did it with Path if Exile’s wiki (and PoE2) and it was such a breath of fresh air coming from the usual fandom wikis with ads everywhere. Super excited to see another game doing it!

the dreaded windows “install latest feature update” has hit my work machine. lets find out on monday if it still works, and what malware microsoft has added

It's possible you may hear me get recast in a particular game that is very popular. If I am, it was not because I stepped away from the character willingly. :) It's because the employer refused to flip to an interim.

surely i do not regret rage queuing one more game tonight

oh hey look we have an official @angular.dev account now

We passed the 100K wishlist milestone on Steam 🎉🥹 Wishlists help Eternal Strands get discovered by more people, and with our demo (PC only) and release days fast approaching, every single one makes a difference. Thank you so much for supporting our indie studio's debut game 💛

Elon Musk pretending to be a top level poe2 player by paying someone to boost his account and then livestreaming himself playing it giving away he knows NOTHING about the game has made my day This guy is like a skit there's no way a human being is THIS insecure and desperate for validation

Back in 2021, PMG reported on the unseen games industry crunch taking place at outsourcing studios in SE Asia. Since then, the companies we looked at have continued to work on some of the biggest games in the world, without any push to improve the conditions of the artists doing that work. (1/7)

I left this until the last minute, but have made my submission. This bill is grossly disrespectful and dangerous and must be stopped.

If you felt moved to attend the hikoi - but have not yet had a moment to submit on the Treaty Principles Bill … today’s the last day! You don’t have to write lengthy submissions - mine was short because while I care deeply I’m not an expert here, and that’s fine. Use this link. Please. #nzpol

It's fair not to like it as a player, but let's examine what it does mechanically: 1) unidentified items can't be used until identified, which means you have some small friction keeping you in your fun combat loop when one drops. This segments "strategy time" into town and "combat time" outside.

no surprises here

This is the perfect analogy. If you want more people to run, you don’t give them mopeds. If you want more people to make art, you don’t give them image generators. This doesn’t “democratize” anything

used to pray for days like this
