Hey gamedevs! Does your cool and awesome game need a level designer? Consider bringing me aboard, furthering the statuses of both the cool and the awesome. I've worked on a couple indie titles and also have plenty of free mods you could try right now. DM or email 1600frogs@gmail.com

"I will say it again. The customer of the actual games industry is the stock market and not gamers... You are not the customer. Everything they do is actually for the people who put all the money in the stock market. And I know it sucks, but that is absolutely how these corporations see you."
The games industry is screwed.

I won't mince words here, the finals is the best fps game of the last decade and its not even close. Every season it just gets better and if you've not given it a proper fair shake I beg you to. Its different, its chaotic, but once it clicks there really is no going back.
