the once yearly thunderstorm is happening in Seattle right now. I’m gaping out the door like a newborn baby

“getting donuts with a friend” you told us hehehe

Some of the advice is no longer super relevant since social media has changed so much since 2023, but hopefully it can help with general approaches to marketing!

Per current discourse on #wizards and #wizard fiction: Seems a good time to menttion that if you're looking for other-series options, you can pick up the first nine #YoungWizards novels as #ebooks in a bundle. (Unless you're in the UK: we can't sell to you due to Brexit...sorry.) bit.ly/YWNMESET

don't want to change anyone's weekend plan but

this is a joke and also when women find me at events, they always say the same thing: “i can’t believe how many men are here, i was so worried i wouldn’t find another woman.”

games industry events should adopt a frat house entrance policy - you have to have at least one woman in your group to get in. if you don’t have a female friend in the games industry who would go to an event with you, maybe you should do some introspection.

the Solas one……. why……

My take on the producer disc horse is there will always be bad producers, as there are poor examples of any discipline, and producers and teams are not always fits for one another.

A producer is not a magic fix, and one's presence cannot magically ship a game if people are not aligned on how.

yeah I don’t know this author but this feels very intentional….

I feel like Nintendo has never understood the fervor people feel for kirby air ride

my GOTY is Kirby Air Riders as it will be every year following until another kirby air ride like comes out

i largely stopped going to game dev events this past year mostly because it makes me sad as someone who can’t get a job in the industry but also because i just am so tired of having these kinds of conversations with men.

this is also SO common in game dev spaces (i mean, duh).

i go to game dev event, a man is excited to tell me all about the game idea he has, his opinions on every game he’s played, his thoughts on the industry. no interest in forming a reciprocal connection with me.

I can’t believe you’re being so prescriptivist. Insisting on “correct” pronunciation for words is based in imperialist and colonist ideas. Not to mention how ableist and xenophobic you’re being.

something I learned this year is you should invite people to things even if you know they can’t come. instead of it making them feel bad it actually makes them feel good

tales of berseria

one time a dude did the hand clasp + bro hug to greet me and I was so pleasantly surprised! i’m not a man but i’m envious of the casual way men interact with each other so it thrills me to be treated like a bro

I NEED TO KNOW!!!

it’s very clear that the people want more JRPGs to which I say, where is the Tales of the Abyss remaster???

yessss Dora that’s amazing!!!!

I’d do lightning up bc it comes from the sky, fire left bc it seems like the most “action” element, and ice down bc it is often on the ground.

THANK you, I also just played through the first Golden Idol game and am going to need this list soon
