So sorry James, you gave her a good life. ❤️

Solos are definitely high-risk high-reward but being able to coordinate and play off each other in a squad is a ton of fun.

Crew fill is very hit or miss (and seemingly more miss than hit). LFGs are probably a little better. But I'll DM my Steam ID!

Made the mistake of reading some Marathon discourse. It is amazing how many of Destiny's "I'm solo-only and play video games twice a month, I demand Bungie accommodate me" players seem to have bought Bungie's second squad-based grind-heavy game.

Finally had time today to grind some Marathon. The high from a good run is insane. Even failed runs feel OK. Wish the game had an API / match history like Destiny so I could watch my vault value go up (and down).

Mahna Mahna song except it's Shaggy saying "it wasn't me" do dooooo dodo do

I can't explain it but the shading on the shoulder strap above the cross is the giveaway to me

We're moving soon, just a few miles, and that means transporting the cats. They hate being put into carriers, but will happily jump into an open box. I figure just cut air holes in a box and, when they inevitably jump in, close it up and transport them. 15min tops. Wife thinks it's awful. AITA?

We should get some runs in 👀

Hello I am GDC'ing for the first time.

Would love to say hi! I'm here thru Friday.

Have to wonder why the app stores themselves aren't scanning for this kind of misconfiguration, especially if it's so easy to discover?

If you've been playing fighting games for any length of time, it would be to your benefit to follow & read any and all takes Pat has. Either reinforcing what you already know or giving you an entirely new perspective will help you grow as a player and a person.

Would love to say hi to you both at some point! I'll be there Weds-Fri.

Headed to GDC for the first time next week, Weds-Fri. Down to chat games, coffee or life with pretty much anyone and everyone.✌️

Be very careful, even if the studio has great ‘uWu’ presence online and treat their employees great, it doesn’t mean that they’ll pay their contractors fairly. It’s scary because in those situations, you might be willing to accept their low pay thinking ‘oh but they’ll hire me again! Ooh I’ll get visibility! ‘It’s okay to give away my Steam OST royalty money, I’ll get more gigs with them later!”. Spoiler alert: It probably won’t happen. It’ll be a one time low paying gig and that’s it. Don’t be fooled by any wholesome persona or online popularity, it’s a marketing tool. Freelancing sustainably means you need to know your worth and find ways to have it be respected. I’m writing this in the context of staying healthy in the games industry for years to come. I think it’s worth saying ‘no’ to exploitative gigs so that you preserve your long-term mental and financial health. That’s why in my last newsletter, I said that it’s okay, hell encouraged, to have another stable job. Freelancing cannot immediately become a full time stable career. Your health matters more and that should be the priority when negotiating pay for your next gig.

As a freelancer, it's much more than just getting a contract

It's about sustainable gigs. That includes saying no to short term exploitative contracts. I dont want people to burn out after 5 years.

Theres more to this excerpt so go read my latest newsletter!

Didn't get much time to play, but love all the comms. See you at launch. 🫡

Couldn't believe That Take when I saw it. 😒 This is a much better way to frame things.

This is exactly right. The Onion quietly left Twitter a month ago and... our weekly subscribers went up. It's because we're doing well here, on Instagram and on YouTube.

As a business, being on Twitter is somewhere between useless or detrimental, unless you're selling boner pills.

Lud has been a part of the fgc for a long time, is an absolute sweetheart and to see this happen to him is downright b.s.

Please help out if you can.

I forever have this clip at the ready. Quintessential "what they want vs what they need" balance story.

This is not a random arcade match. It's part of a ECvs WC 5v5 at EVO 2003

The part about SooMighty being insanely high is true, and also the reason why he went for repeated snapbacks while comboing Sentinel. Dude was too blazed to remember he had already fucked on the other two characters

My code chops are rusty but could you simplify this by checking (!isGif && !autoplayDisabled)?
