Massive respect to Arkane. It’s always nice when a studio and team you love the work of shows they’re good people and on the right side of history.

environmental storytelling used purposefully can warn the player this opponent is higher level and more dangerous than the character art suggests

Completed this tonight. Bloody hell. Really affecting game that deals with some real shit and isn't afraid to go places with it. It also looks and sounds gorgeous. Loved it.
I self-published Without a Dawn in May. I made zero compromises, and I couldn't be happier how it turned out: store.steampowered.com/app/3145620/... 💛💚
Unfortunately, I've had very little luck with exposure, including the gaming press. 😩

I cannot fathom how you could still buy a game for even 70$ in the first place.
60$ was peak for me, going to 70 was my breaking point, I NEVER bought a game at this price. 80 is so profoundly out of touch given the financial situation of so many people out there. Read the fucking room.

Microsoft backs away from $80 games, drops The Outer Worlds 2 price to $70 'in line with current market conditions'
"We at the Earth Directorate have worked with [REDACTED] to revise the price of The Outer Worlds 2," Obsidian joked.

Microsoft never should have been allowed to acquire Bethesda and Activision-Blizzard-King, it should have been blocked for the clear monopoly making move it was, and anyone with pattern recognition could've seen this coming, because voraciously acquisition always comes with mass layoffs.

As someone who has a close family member dealing with ALS, seeing this sort of tech is especially touching for me. Anything that makes the lives of the people inflicted with this nightmare better is truly important, meaningful, cherished work.
Earlier this year, Synchron teamed up with Nvidia to demonstrate Stentrode being used with Apple Vision Pro to let a person with ALS control smart home devices such as speakers, fans, and robot vacuums.

BTW did you know that Godot is using unrealistic light falloff by default?
If you want your lights to look realistic you need to change Attenuation from 1 to 2 which corresponds to real-life inverse-square falloff
I still forget about it sometimes
