The original Beyond Good & Evil is a game that holds such a deep, important place in my heart that I both rabidly want a sequel, but also just want Ubi to finally put it in the ground and let it die with dignity instead of... whatever this is.

Okay, it's been a week since release. Reception has been AWESOME, much much more than I expected for such a niche thing! Thank you! ❤️ A few thoughts (thread).

We did something different with the credits for Demonschool. We used this format: name, title, lengthy description of what they did. Often you see credits in games where you don't know what the credited developer was actually responsible for. We wanted to give people proper, actual credit.

Re: Last repost - Steve Wozniak is everything that the billionaires of Silicon Valley pretend to be: He's a genius, an inventor, and he's made a profound impact on history that will be remembered beyond his lifetime. Above all else: He seems to be a happy, decent person. Really warms the heart.

In an era filled with tech dipshits who never developed emotionally past the age of 13 & use their wealth to become odious monsters ...

We’re having our first watch of “White Christmas” (1954) of the season and I always forget the unbelievable strangeness of “The Minstrel Number.”

I went from not knowing anything about this game to blasting through every single available episode, including the finale, in a single week. It started making cracks in my formerly confident argument for Silksong as GOTY. Remarkable game.
