If you're not, listen to this.
Get a guitar or some drums, or a trumpet. Pick up a brush, a pencil, some clay or a welder.
Just make shit. It doesn't have to be good (eventually it will be) just make music, art or write or whatever.
It's literally never been more important.

Narrative design is seen as "expendable" because it's not "top-level game design", says BAFTA Breakthrough participant Cara Ellison. But narrative is "the thing that actually keeps people picking the controller back up."

EXCLUSIVE: So far it's been unclear what proof Rockstar Games has to justify its firing of 34 union members, who it claims were leaking "confidential information in a public forum".
PMG has now seen some of the messages which contributed to this decision being made.

Finished #DragonAge2! I could easily say a lot about it, but it's definitely a game you need to take at face value, not what it could be or what you wanted it to be.
In that way, I loved it.

"Gamlen's Greatest Treasure" is actually a fantastic name in context for this quest in #DragonAge2. I'm hoping it ends the way I think it does.

The "Frieren angle" thing, apart from just being delightful, also completely demolishes the pathetic "AI is democratising art" argument. Someone struggling with a difficult drawing received advice from hundreds of strangers who just wanted to help them improve their art.

Quoting this and pointing at DICE awards
The Game Awards are not the Oscars of video games. The Oscars miss constantly but at least they are a bona fide attempt by an industry to legitimize and promote itself; TGA is not that, it's just ads for individual products masquerading as an awards show run by one guy's particular preferences.

Trust Cara, she has your best intentions in heart.
I think it’s time for everyone to sack off the other games they are playing and just play Blake Manor. I will also accept if you are saving it for Thanksgiving or other festive holidays

I've wanted to break this down for a bit: Wrote about a big quirk in how Game Awards is structured that makes it tough for small games to compete at a top level. Localization matters! And it creates a tough battle for the Blue Princes and 1000xResists of the world. www.polygon.com/blue-prince-...
In the GOTY race, localization really matters — which is bad news for Blue Prince
One of the year's best games will have a tough time breaking into The Game Awards

I enjoy watching painting tutorials, but I really enjoy when videos show a way to solve a problem. It's why Duncan Rhodes newest video is so good. He takes the problem of trying to recreate a color scheme without the exact paints and shows how to make it work www.youtube.com/watch?v=60E7...
What could possibly go wrong with this 25 year old Warhammer paint set?

A great one from @dreamcastaway.bsky.social about enjoying (or not enjoying) a game on its own terms, rather than what we wished it was instead.

We've paid Amelia Tyler, the narrator of Baldur's Gate 3, to voice pieces of the PC Gaming Show since 2023. If *we* can do it, a major game studio can definitely pay actors to say "I found some rusted tools" in ARC Raiders.
I'm here to tell you that voice actors (even very very good ones) are not expensive, more than make up for their cost in the value they bring to your game, and if Baldur's Gate can record real actors for every line of dialogue in the game, so can you for your 100 generic barks or even specific ones.

Despite setbacks, it has been a fun model to work on. Just hope I'll figure out some use for her model, and perhaps find a way to tell the story of Rook and Mindare.
