A thread on colourblindness & #gamedev -

If your approach to colourblindness is full screen filters, you're *doing it wrong*, and causing more problems that you're solving.

If you see a game that has filters, they're doing it wrong. If you see a game that has a 'strength' slider - don't copy it.

I have to stop myself from reading the comments on articles. It’s a good game, and game styles and IPs evolve, haters can just go play something else if they don’t like it.
Every time I open tt I get the urge to immediately close it because of the amount of bad reviews vids I get for veilguard on my fyp. WHY ARE THEY THERE IN THE FIRST PLACE?? I love the game, please go away with your negativity 😭

#dragonage #veilguard Just over 100 hours, and the first complete run is done. Some #nospoilers thoughts, in no particular order:

Sometimes being a completionist means accidentally getting the good-good ending (as opposed to just the good ending, which was also narratively satisfying).

80 hours into #Veilguard and *now* I discover the target lock.

One of the best aspects of #dragonage imo is the ability to play on existing lore and expand the world in little ways that make it feel more full, more real.

Curious how about the culture that has developed/will develop around writing/posting fanfiction here, especially as the Twitter/X exodus continues.

Do you think the characters feel shallow because of inadequate writing, or because we've had between ten and fifteen years to explore every facet and nuance of our favorites in our own writing? #dragonage #veilguard #fandom

Please stop screaming into the abyss, we're not insured for that.
