@michaelheald I feel the same. Mine are still hit and miss on X but games and building tools do occasionally show up beyond the cheap viral DTC products. Your RT's provide solid game leads though too 👌

Say what you will about Twitter, sorry X these days, but I have to say that the ad's of late have been...good? I'm seeing ad's for things I'm genuinely interested in, usually games related. So much so one ad almost led to a purchase. I don't mind ad's if they're of interest.

@chxrles Leader goals! 👏 It's a sad world where decent senior leaders really are so few and far between... The workplace shouldn't take a negative toll, nothing you do is that serious you should give up on your own well-being.

I mean look at this. i ducking love it!

can’t believe I’m actually in my own lil “hero’s journey” of initially rejecting the call to adventure trope of building and nurturing a team cos I would hate it and it would drain my energy m and here I am loving it and it giving me energy

@JibbSmart Just tested and asked everyone in our household. Everyone calls it and plays it ✂️📄🪨, so that's x7 votes for that name. In Australia for reference 👌

As far as names go, Scissors Paper Rock is better than Rock Paper Scissors because it better communicates what beats what. But am I right in thinking Rock Paper Scissors is the defacto international English standard?

@braceyourselfok Aww c'mon. Has to be a weird signature story buried in your conference attendance history somewhere 😝 BYG & "Ryan Clark" signatures would be a solid momento you've surely been asked before.

Uhhh, I probably won't sign your face, no 🤣 But yes, I'll be at PAX West! Looking forward to seeing everyone!

@madguy90 The submissions were great and I loved the details surrounding your thoughts behind them too, great addition 👏 My partner and I still play SoR on Xbox so eagerly awaiting #2. She's isn't much of a gamer but is telling me she will buy a laptop to play SoR2 early 😅

@FourbitFriday That's fair enough, just, the fragmentation has been rough 😓 This messy phase with everyone being all over the place will end eventually... I'm sure you'll let us know where you land though so I'll catch your updates there hopefully.

@FourbitFriday So many good people leaving the platform and I just don't get it... Maybe because I use the standard app? Really though unless you're a developer integrated with the API and a few annoying visuals + default settings (that could be changed back), what's the difference?

@NickPopovich Ouch 😬 You must be keen. What's the attraction for you heading in? Anything you're looking forward to or hoping is different in particular?

@mossmouth Your /makegames series of articles are so well written and practicable, I've had them bookmarked forever and always share when possible 👏

I wrote an article about assessing risk when developing games, and BG3 is very broadly appealing from my perspective: it's big, fiddly, beautiful, etc. And well-executed. I think it's much riskier to make simple games these days, esp. if you price up: 🔗#appeal" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">derekyu.com/makegames/risk…

Great overall point by Jason - Larian is big but also creatively independent. I do want to push back slightly on this part, though 👇 IMO those are not risky features. They're exactly what most players want from video games. (1/2)

@chxrles Truth 👏 Way weirder if it was "also: not my kid"

also: not my dog

this is what it’s all for!

@riadd I think @tha_rami's template from his latest post on LTPF is great: ltpf.ramiismail.com A great resource in general full of practical advice.

Looking for game pitch resources! Do you have a template or example pitch that you consider to be perfect?

@daviefogarty @sharktankau @Channel10AU I love that it looks like you're having fun while shooting it 👏

Incredible inventions... Incredible entrepreneurs... Let's go 🚀 @sharktankau @Channel10AU

@JasonDellaRocca @larianstudios The original was the first Christmas present I secretly unwrapped early as a kid just to read the box 😅 I'm keen to dive back in when I know I can afford to lose myself in the world again. What is meaning behind "Matrox"?

Congrats to @larianstudios for all the #BaldursGate3 success. The original Baldur's Gate, released in 1998 by BioWare was one of the first game credits of my career. Attached is a scan of the credits page of the original Baldur's Gate instruction manual... of over 150 pages!

@riadd 1) Come up with concept 2) Do market (gauge interest) 3) Build Vertical Slice (with your community) 4) Get publisher (optional) 5) Make game (with your community) 6) Release (various milestone versions) Slight tweak and missing the 1000's of subtle points for Projects... 😅

New game dev model (hot take?): 1) Come up with concept 2) Build Vertical Slice 3) Do marketing (gauge interest) 4) Release (early version) 5) Make game (with your community) 6) Get publisher (optional)

Classic game dev model: 1) Come up with concept 2) Build Vertical Slice 3) Pitch to publishers 4) Make game 5) Do marketing 6) Release

@chxrles That has got to be the ugliest council bin I've ever seen 😐 The graffiti actually helps...

@runevision This is great. I think all spreadsheets and data should have room for emojis 🙌😁

Reading up on theory about emotions associated to musical intervals, I took it upon myself to find the IMO best fitting face emoji to each, as part of my note-taking and internalization process. It was tricky, but I stand by my picks! 😅

@KrisZadziuk I've silently followed you for ages now and have always loved to see how strongly you celebrate and value your team 👏 True leader material.

Well deserved, always hard working, always engaged and connected to the team, always open to learning, always patient. Easiest decision to make promoting you! 🔥 Onwards and upwards

@Akali_Kin @Infilament Just came to ask the same thing. Any chance / way I'm missing how to filter by unaffiliated terms? If not possible, is it maybe a future update that could be included?

@Infilament Why isn't there a option to see terms that are unaffiliated to a game ? The website does state 485 terms are unaffiliated to any games, however you cant access them unless you already know them. That feels like a large oversight.

New to fighting games with Street Fighter 6 and confused by all the FGC terminology? Use glossary.infil.net! My July update contains the SF6 terms and brings the site to over 900 terms, 330 videos, and 750 Japanese translations. Use the search bar and start learning!

@SecretCFO @elonmusk .gif choice and all your added visual flair make following your content an absolute joy 🤣

3. Culture and Process Change. This is the hardest bit. @elonmusk landed two rockets at the same time. But has he ever tried to get Asscrack Bobby to book inventory in using a handheld scanner, when he’s used the same paper form for the last 35 years?

McKinsey say 70% of ERP rollouts FAIL But why is it so HARD? Let me break it down: 👇

@SecretCFO Crispy! 🥓 Can you list and give some context for the "master data" must haves that are fundamental to all businesses big and small? 🙏

I hope you enjoyed this thread on ERP rollouts. Follow @secretcfo for more, and please RT the below tweet to spread the word.
