Play Avowed! It just came out and is based in the PoE universe. It heavily explores the gods, their creation, animancy, and more. Just finished it and had a great time.

I work with this team regularly! They are great and drive a ton of impact across the game from behind the scenes. It is highly technical though. Past experience working on cloud services in the azure/Microsoft tech stack preferred.

It’s always been a lie. It doesn’t trickle down unless the gov forces it through social programs and taxing the rich.
Hard work should be valued and appreciated at all levels APPROPRIATELY. CEOs are over compensated while working class are under compensated.
Sam complaining is so out of touch.

Good clarification. I was talking about what was shown in the show — Bedrock Vibrant Visuals. It works great on Realms!

The goal of the drops cadence is to make us better at addressing all the different areas that need some love, and allow us to make sure everything is polished when it releases.
Also, we scaled up the gameplay teams to be able to handle the drops frequency, while still working on larger stuff too

We’re always listening! Just because a suggestion may not make it into a given update doesn’t mean that it wasn’t heard and won’t come later.

Using the Happy Ghast for building in the air will be a game changer! I think I am still more excited for Vibrant Visuals though

Oh the internal tests of it have looked so good! I can’t wait. This is definitely what I am most excited for

Yes! “Spring to Life” is such a delightful name.

💯 it has been clear for years. Bernie has been rejected for over a decade by dems despite having the most robust grass roots organization in the country. Bring on fundamental change, not incremental improvements.

I can't/won't speak for my employer here. Only my own thoughts.
I can say though that we are required to be in office at least 2 days a week unless you have an exemption (which I do not), so moving is currently off the table unless something changes there.
Also, F Trump and Elon.

Trust me, you don't want to come here anyway. We'll all be trying to join you soon enough (if our government lets us leave)

The cast has been really great this season though. Helly, Milchick, and Irv have especially been killing it

Severance season 2 has been great, but I do miss the upside down look at the workplace from season 1. This season feels more sci-fi — still good and playing with some very cool themes, but not what made season 1 special I think.

Legacy Dems at this point are as much the problem as the GOP bending the knee. A new class of Dems that will actually have the worker as their primary focus needs to rise up. AOC is an incredible example, and deserves much more influence within the party.

Hey Mat, what do you think the largest contributor to this is?
- Pressure on consumers’ wallets
- Shrinking youth populations due to decreased birth rates in the western world
- Changes in gaming popularity / popularity of alternatives (rise of TikTok)
- Something else?

I feel this 100%. Wife and I were talking about our travel plans for the year and we are actively avoiding flying as much as possible.

Anyone complaining about this must have speed-run the intro and character creator or is just completely ignoring the story. Obsidian did a great job setting the stage early on.

This. Incredible pacing that leaves space for world building, character development, relationships to deepen in front of you. Literally just finished season 2 about 20 minutes ago. You’re in for a treat.

Really fun multiplayer. My team at work has played it a few times together and had a great time with it. Stoked for it to come to Xbox this year!

Wow I love this! Two of my favorite franchises combined. Awesome work 👏🏼👏🏼

Aka, yeah the industry is f’ed by suits and maximizing “shareholder value” at the expense of art and the actual creatives… yay

I think they’re scared to release the game, have it underperform, and have that further crater the company’s value as they’re looking to sell.
Line must go up, else look to sell for max value before the bottom falls out.

The fix went out around 4pm pacific, so any update made after that should persist now.

Yes, exactly! Player sleep percentage is the one I always adjusted too.
It will persist across sessions now. Give it a shot and let me know.
