The team behind A Storied Life: Tabitha share their treasured items and personal stories in a new video series!

Episode 1 is out now on our YouTube channel, where Vicki talks about the joy of finding her dadโ€™s vinyl collection years after he passed away. ๐ŸŽถ

If you work in a creative industry, you *must* read this

โ€œIf you were a man, every one of those negatives would be in the positive column.โ€ - My first performance review in games included as negatives: โ€œpersonality is too big, too confident, asks too many questionsโ€

Yes, thereโ€™s a double standard

I need people who upload clips of animation/anime to YouTube to understand that making it 60fps makes it look considerably worse.

Gamer brain infecting folks view of other art forms.

I was annoyed that site didn't have the box art I liked.

Sorry to break format.

Are we allowed to openly mock and laugh in the face of anyone working in games who sincerely says "single player is dead!" going forward?

Can't be going through this cycle again in 10 years. Please let the lesson stick this time.

RE9 hitting 5 million sales in 5 days is fucking amazing. Especially since I was told several years ago by an exec that single-player games were dead ๐Ÿค”

The games industry is obsessed with data and market trends. It's not even about this genre vs that, or single player vs live service. The suits in charge need to reconnect with the thing that players actually want:

A dude who's insanely fucking hot.

Second playthrough using third person camera with Grace.

Definitely less scary, but it's really well implemented here in a way it wasn't in Village. Also, only now realising Grace has her own knee cap and kick move.

It's an insane take. GameCube Resident Evil is a 10/10, if that ever that meant anything. That and RE4 are the masterpieces of the series.

I know this may not seem like an answer in the spirit of the question on its surface, but I am being 100% geniune. The Hitman World of Assassination trilogy does a superb job at doing what you're describing.

I Donโ€™t Need A Bloodborne Remake, I Just Need It To Not Run Like Ass I love Bloodborne. I'd love to see it updated, but I don't need an entire remake. Just make the game that's there sing.

I'm a simple guy. I just need Bloodborne to not run like a bear hit with a tranquilizer dart on the PS5. aftermath.site/bloodborne-rem...

Others have already said this, but just to be clear, you are all having discourse about a comment someone made sarcastically. He only referenced artists who achieved success after 30 in his comment. You are all living life on a hair trigger.

Anno is joking. He's buds with both Miyazaki and Tomino (Gundam) and knows that they didn't even really breakout until their late 30s/40s.

Anno himself was 35 when NGE came out.

Despite what you may have heard, Japanese people can be funny and sarcastic on purpose.

Video Games Need to Be Cheaper to Buy One way to get out of the video-game industry funk is to recognize that players arenโ€™t spending $70 on most games

One takeaway from the DICE convention here in Las Vegas, where game makers gather to pitch and schmooze?

Most video games should not cost $70.

this strategy of making bigger and bigger productions that require higher and higher ticket prices worked out pretty well for opera's cultural longevity
