Be crazy if someone (me) had just given a whole talk on respecting the players and protagonists in videogames, and how that someone (me) talked about how players are smart enough to empathise with situations unlike their own, while also imaginative enough to immerse themselves without that hook.

(I think it's good for the soul to be joyous and uncritical about PokΓ©mon for at least a day before we can be cynical game developers again)

(I also think it's good for the soul to constantly dunk on water starters)

I have never not picked a grass starter in a PokΓ©mon game, and I'm not about to start now, but I'll damned if Pombon isn't everything to me.

Skate studio Full Circle is laying off employees, says having fewer people working there will enable it to 'move faster, listen more closely, and deliver consistently for all of you,' somehow Five months after launching into early access, Skate's player numbers on Steam have declined precipitously.

Layoffs are unfortunate for everyone involved. Full stop. This mealy-mouthed thing where it'll help a company "move faster, listen more closely, and deliver consistently" - like they're metamorphosing into a higher state of being - who are they fooling, exactly?

God you don't know how refreshing it is to see someone using an Architect meme. Just sublime to see in the wild. Like a rare and beautiful bird.
