Seva Khusid

And isn’t that the most alright thing of all

Game 20, we pick a tank, I fall. Our sniper dies to a stealth guy, and our stealth guy somehow outplays both the remaining enemies.

For them, I’d imagine the fight to be meaningful and dramatic: decided by the smallest of factors.

Since then, deaths were either stupid anecdotal things or dramatic encounters.

Game 12 I hear them shooting, try to get the drop — and end up ambushing my own sniper. Dead in the crossfire, the others fall.

Maybe I will reconsider with a few more playhours, but it felt meaningful to me!

My first death was in my first fight: a clueless Rook running into a trio. Adrenaline, shock, belated realization.

My second death was seeing an exfil start, standing there curiously, and getting stabbed in the back.

The secret to a balanced dev team is combining someone who doesn't play videogames because they don't like videogames and someone who does play videogames because they don't like videogames

So, by your judgement, they meant “enjoy misinformation“ but not meaning “this misinformation I shared celebrating use of art against AI-based weapons”?

comrade, he literally says ”enjoy it” in the post I’m replying to

(again, I have no idea what the actual devs look, sound, or opine like)

Dreams of communing with higher beings

450 BCE — Hermes showed up and told me to build a temple to Zeus
2026 CE — the voice of Beat Unbeatable appeared and bid me write more gay romance quests

had a dream about talking to unbeatable devs over tea under the starry summer sky

I’m pretty sure the dream was entirely wrong in its details, but the atmosphere was lovely

Not a journalist, just someone spreading feel-good misinformation about people who are getting bombed because the political stories align.

ah but you see this one is undead

My (smol) essay in this is "Interactive Fiction Games and Stand Up For Kids: How I Learned to Write Comedy For Kids"

Where I go talk about my experience making Interactive Fiction for kids how *you* can make kids laugh with your writing.

Miyamoto should've done more interviews in 1989 because this is like reading a wizard talk. This snippet distills why playing games in another language has always been so appealing to me. (And also reminds me why Tunic is such a masterpiece.)

looking at the GDC talks for this year and this kinda sums it up, huh
