Arc Raiders so far Solo: "Don't shoot, friendly! How are you? Want to extract together?" Non-solo: *immediately shot at by other group*

The devs provided the tools to be friendly OR hostile; the game supports and incentivizes both, but forces neither. People wanting a more focused PvE or PvP experience aren't wrong, but the playerbase will decide which camp the game leans into more. That's emergent gameplay.

The most underdiscussed aspect of adulthood is buying things once or twice at some ridiculous price only to learn of a much cheaper way/place to obtain the same things.

Just got this image of the new Arc Raiders map, Stella Montis, in my inbox. I feel like this map is gonna be the most difficult to traverse on the surface

You know it's a normal day in Silesia, Poland when you're getting ready for work and you spot Straż Miejska chasing down two boars in between apartment complexes.

I'm not sure the best way to solve historical discrimination in the game dev industry is to have intentional, reactive discrimination that targets younger generations who weren't responsible for the older historical discrimination. There are better ways to be welcoming.

I can confidently say that anyone complaining about the Jewish story content or Musa in Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 are nonsensical weirdos who likely didn't even play the game. Incredible characters and storylines all around! My RPG of the year without a doubt!

You're not going to like every game, and some you'll hate. You're allowed to voice that; never let any developer tell you otherwise. However, IF you want the game to get better, openly voicing which aspects of the game you dislike in a constructive way is best.

You need a publisher to get money. You need money to get a team. You need a team to get a publisher. Notice the problem? Support indie devs. #indiedev #gamedev

2.4% of Nioh 3's Steam players getting all achievements only a week after release is incredible for retention! Team NINJA & コーエーテクモ nailed it out of the park; incredible trilogy!

It may not be the prettiest to look at, but here's a level blockout for one of the rooms in our new game! We can't wait to share progress throughout the year! #gamedev #indiedev #UE5 #UnrealEngine

Prototyping in game dev isn't just about testing if something is fun, but also testing if it's possible to do, and how you should do it. Without that, you're operating on the blind hope that, when it's time to implement the design, it'll magically come together.
