Clair Obscur writer shares production advice that could improve your game's story

Rewatched this & the moments leading up to the medal ceremony several times since last night - not only because it's wonderful seeing someone take such joy in what they do, but also because her story of burning out, stepping away, and coming back on her own terms is inspirational for so many of us.

This is how you live a life

One of the best parts of working on Avowed was the excuse to go back and play the Pillars of Eternity games again. Obviously the writing is clutch, but I still maintain Deadfire is the prettiest and most visually stunning cRPG I’ve ever played.

BREAKING: The House passed the so-called SAVE America Act which threatens to upend our freedom to vote.

The bill could disenfranchise millions of eligible voters by requiring documents like passports or birth certificates to register to vote and forcing voter roll purges. The Senate must reject it.

This is brought to you by someone going down the black hole of the show’s 30th anniversary kickoff last night and all its legal drama.

I have given it a lot of thought and I’m convinced Lord of the Dance is the most unhinged thing that came out of the 90s. Reality TV could never.

This generation of actors has been such a gift.

400 years later Shakespeare performed in the right hands still slices through all the noise.

This this this. I think switching and learning new disciplines is a good thing! I never want to shut that down. I’ve crossed disciplines many times. But there are many people don’t want to put in the work and years of training to learn the skillset they yearn for so they just hover. The worst.

100%

Nothing, and I mean nothing, sucks more than a producer who doesn’t realize they actually want to be a designer or writer, etc. When this happens it screws up feedback, communication, team morale, and leads to a lot of wasted time. Sucks so much.

I can think of four producers I’ve worked with in my career that I would go into oncoming traffic for if it meant getting them onto my projects. I trust them so completely. A good producer is worth their weight in gold. However…

calling and accepting an unprompted call on the phone should be a basic life skill!

everyone talks about the loneliness crisis and my very subjective theory is the decline of casual phone calls in lieu of texts and DMs has made it so much worse. physically hearing the voice of your friends regularly and casually matters!

i call friends out of the blue but if they are under the age of fifty now i send a text saying “hey calling you in a minute. not an emergency”. after a few times doing this they eventually realize “oh this is just what lis does” and eventually they start to call you unprompted and it’s wonderful

hi, potato!

Stand With Minnesota A directory of places to give to as Minnesota defends itself from ICE occupation

crazy that the website that I randomly decided to put together at 10AM yesterday has had over 25k unique visitors in 24 hours.

please keep sharing with your networks.

Wake up. Make breakfast. Do email. Watch a murder. Go to a party for a 5 year old. Laugh with my daughter. See a different angle of that murder. Hear govt officials slander the victim. Play Barbies with my kid. Feed her dinner. Tear up at that victim reading last honors to a vet. Put kid to bed. USA

I’m out here in Los Angeles, where hundreds have gathered in response to the ICE execution of Alex Pretti in Minneapolis. Chants and speeches underway here outside the Federal Building in DTLA. Working multiple cameras today so posts may be sparse
