Forgiveness is dying.
Without it, love, truth, and mercy follow into the grave.
Remember, if you like. But forgive.

In games, we escape into worlds where good and evil are clear, heroes rise, and hope wins. But in real life… things feel broken. I’ve started making videos about faith and meaning. It’s different from my usual content, but it’s something that matters to me deeply.

My buddy Drakey is going through it right now. Bills are the last thing anyone wants to think about after losing family. $20 can be a LOT right now, please consider donating what you can. Every little bit helps. ❤️
Me and my mom are having ongoing financial struggles after my father's passing. I've started a GoFundMe for people to donate to help us with our debts. Even if you can't donate, retweeting to help generate traffic would be greatly appreciated.

Embarrassing statement incoming. I'm a Christian who's never read the Bible cover to cover. Yup... Guilty. I'm reading now. It's slow going when you feel compelled to question everything, like I do. Exegesis of Greek and Hebrew takes time. And it's been a rewarding experience.

Chocobos and moogles are iconic creatures in the Final Fantasy series. FFXVI features both races, naming Clive’s mount Ambrosia and the pompom-headed huntmaster Nektar. In classical myth, ambrosia and nectar are the food and drink of the gods, associated with eternal life.

I think video games are one of the best teaching resources available to us in education. Wanna know why? Check out this presentation from PAX East, now available! #PAXEast youtu.be/LbvMtSV7IvI?...

In Final Fantasy VII, Hades can be summoned as a robed, skeletal figure, a design that personifies Death. This doesn’t match Hades of Greek myth, though, who ruled the Underworld but did not escort souls the dead to the afterlife. That role belonged to Thanatos, the God of Death.

Contentment is a cat—chase it and it runs, but sit still and it shows up purring.
Funny how we seek happiness in some distant "there" or "then," forgetting that "here" and "now" is all there ever is. Happiness isn't "out there," it's something we carry with us wherever we go.

Thirty-three days ago, we released Clair Obscur: Expedition 33.
Since then, we’ve sold 3.3 million copies.
Seriously. As of today.
We couldn’t make that up.
Another entry on the long list of surreal moments that your support has made real.
Thank you ALL.

In Crisis Core, before Angeal learns the truth of his birth from Genesis, he tells Zack a childhood story about never stealing apples from a certain tree on the wealthy man’s estate. In the Book of Genesis, God only forbids eating fruit from one tree - the Tree of Knowledge.
