Btw, Raquel de Miranda here! ✍️🕹️

I'm a #gamedev & Narrative Designer (now freelance) who worked on "Avatar: Frontiers", Dontnod's "Banishers", "Last Time I Saw You", "The Merlies", and more TBA

I'm big on dark fantasy/scifi/tragedies, cohesion and themes, and unreasonably ambitious side projects ✊😔
I'm not talking about the thing. 🙅
Instead I'd love to know about the last creative thing you did that you enjoyed doing, that you're proud of! It can be in vague terms if you're at risk of being shot by the NDA drones! It can be a small doodle you scribbled! It can be a wall you painted! Anything!

Israël reconnaît avoir tué 71 000 Palestiniens et valide les chiffres du Ministère de la Santé à Gaza.

Pendant 2 ans, quiconque relayait cette source était taxé de soutien du Hamas.

⚠️ Les morts indirectes (famines, santé) et les corps sous les décombres ne sont pas comptés

La situation actuelle d'Ubisoft est très compliquée à tous les niveaux et tout ceux qui vous disent qu'il suffirait de faire ceci ou cela pour sauver l'entreprise ne savent pas de quoi ils parlent. Peu importe qui dirige l'entreprise, ça va être très compliqué.

Forever flabbergasted to meet people who have already organically heard of me, given I'm someone who religiously skips almost every mandatory industry Slack, Discord, or IRL event. 😭 I mean, thank you!! But how!!

✊🌀 Ubisoft : trop, c’est trop ! Les organisations syndicales appellent à la grève les 10, 11 et 12 février prochains, face à l’arbitraire d’un patron qui n’ose même plus s’exprimer auprès des employé·es.

We’ve been working on evacuating refugees for one year round, and we’re stuck at the same point: the government won’t let Palestinians in. It’s so bad that Italy – an openly fascist government – does, and France do not. I’m livid and appalled.

Au fait, pour celleux qui l'auraient raté, on rappelle que la France fait pareil en kidnappant des enfants à la sortie de l'école, et parfois même directement dans leur salle de classe, pour que leurs parents viennent les chercher au commissariat et se fassent expulser

we need to reach some sort of equilibrium with budgets and release schedules where studios can weather flops. we can't live in this "either smash hit or the whole studio goes bust" world, we will never get interesting games ever again. taking risks on weird shit is how we end up with anything good

Holy hell, I'm *so* sorry to my ex Ubisoft colleagues, that's some absolutely dreadful news 😞
