That dumb feeling of "I should do something" vs "I'm to dumb to do something"... I should start streaming lol

Good Designer
Mid Programmer
Let's add Shit Artist to the resume.

You know it's one thing to say you're defending developers. It is another thing entirely when you use it to bridge build with the MAIN Anti-woke DEI=die man whose actions have caused abuse of small indie developers and been detrimental to the wider gaming discussions at the moment.

You know there are devs out there who go "Kojima is a HACK! David Cage is a real one." and that thought always gives me a chuckle

Death Stranding is fun btw

Man that soul crushing feeling when your family doesn't back your career and calls you a bum even though your actually starting to get headway and almost no longer treading water after school bills and layoffs.

Spite is a good work motivator.

Man it's wild hearing some people already shitting on Ciri's new design and how her previous model was perfect as if this ain't just a slightly older Ciri.

I've played so much Path of Exile 2 today that all I learned was that I'm skilled with the violence.

It's kinda neat that the light of your mouse reflects on the glass of the health and mana orbs in PoE2

So when I analyze a game as a designer. I will record my gameplay, cut clips, and give them names based on what the clip is about. Sometimes I channel my inner Woolie Versus with the clip naming like in Yakuza 0 Here

Been playing through the #monsterhunter Franchise from the start in prep for Wilds to see how we got here, and oh boy do I not miss the fact that there are like always 5-6 Small Monsters messing with you while you fight a Rathalos so at the end the kill count is

10 Melynx
15 Velociprey
1 Rathalos

Just gonna rant about being a #gamedev in the year of our lord 2024. Outta work for a year now, I remember talking to my manager who doesn't care about games and think that they're a waste of time cause "Honestly, it's just games" as he avoids us trying to give him our work to show the team.

Finished beating #Slitterhead today. Honestly surprised how much I enjoyed that game, yea its kinda rough and repetitive at times with only 7 types of enemies but really 5 and only like 4 actual levels. But with the talks, character and the cutscenes and the experience of playing. What a lovely game

Also on a Tangent. I feel like Destiny Menu design has doomed us. It so cookie cutter and generic and shows up everywhere now. It's like the staple of AAA UI design and it kinda sucks.

Man playing Dragon Age Veilguard on nightmare feels like it was a mistake cause now I'm halfway through act 2 and everything is a massive health sponge with 10 adds swinging at you with ranged mobs in there for good measure while the big thing you need to kill teleports around the room,
