Inverse's Gaming section is being shut down as the company "divests" from gaming content. I'm out of a job along with my wonderful co-writers. I've put my heart and soul into this job for four years. Gonna need to take time to process, but I'm now completely open for work - and boy do I need it.

It this takes off you can be sure that AI-Ghosts that just play the game for you will take the place of actual accessibility design in video games. It's a lot easier to just put a skip button at certain moments than design alternate control schemes, etc.

Hello everyone. Unfortunately, I was told that I would not be resuming my daily news writer role at Insider Gaming.

So, needless to say, I am open for game journalism work. If you’re looking for a reviewer, previewer, news and/or guide writer, as well as mock reviews, please reach out. Thank you.

happy to kick off reminiscing on the about square enix’s b-game golden age. they did it. they made shorter games with worse graphics for less money and alas. no one bought them. was this the fault of the strategy or square enix’s non existent marketing who can say
