honestly, if it's safe for you to do so and you have the means, meet and talk to players
free time is increasingly scarce. what a gift that they spend some of it with what we get to make

when I first joined the industry, I was told by coworkers that it was refreshing to work with someone who wasn't jaded yet. I told them I hoped to never become that way.
I feel myself becoming a jaded game dev, after everything this industry has put me through. Is this just how we all end up?

as a creative he had my two favorite qualities: he always had an opinion and he always gave it to you straight
i wouldn't get to work on video games (let alone star wars games) if it weren't for what vince made. my heart goes out to his loved ones and those that knew him best

The opportunities that got me to where I am today were ultimately created by or descended from Vince. And I'm sure hundreds more could say the same. Forever grateful for his passion and love of the game.

my friend-that's-too-woke issue with papyrus: it's predominantly used to feel exotic and foreign, without any specific cultural authenticity
(it was designed by a white guy in the 80's who imagined what bible times in the middle east were like)
