@GenePark @TheCartelDel @SpawnWaveMedia How the turn tables

this seems bad

@TFT will there be a fix for the static "0 gold" sitting on top of the android mobile screen? It's been there since PBE and it's now also on live, which makes gold tracking very unpleasant

@whatacoolwitch Take the drugs they give you + play TTYD

Friends. I am getting all four wisdom teeth removed next week. Hit me with your best recovery strats. I’ve never had major surgery like this before so I’m fair nervous.

@thisislijoe Very happy for you man

Been at this company since 2008 and I’m about to walk out the door for the final time. Half my life I dedicated to this place. Crazy how life and time work. Here’s to the next chapter <3

@TylerDinucci Finally a reason to say go bison

@TheCartelDel No argument that even with no data, they could + should have gotten closer than... that

@TheDerrit I've heard that but It's a bad excuse - because I can rip the old models at anytime with an emulator and can replicate it artistically.

Good article. When I visited the Virtuous Shanghai office basically every hallway wall was just dozens of game covers. I never took photos, but this is one I found online gives you the idea. When I asked if those hundreds of titles is every game they told me "half the games we worked on we're not allowed to show". Most games that gamers love are half made in China and Malaysia, and they don't even know it.

@TheCartelDel Can't speak for Virtuous' handling of the work, but I've been told part of the atrocities between that and FFXII remaster are that square simply lost the old data so facial models + animation data didn't exist

I did also see FFX HD on the Virtuous studio HQ wall, so we know who is to blame for Tidus's face getting WRECKED in the HD remake.

Who's on first, millennial style

@DustinBrowder You can't be saying things like this and giving me hope!!

It's still out there. They did not shut it down. I'm told the CCU is still quite high...

@thaGaGaGuy @Speedkicks Even if this was done intentionally and in a non-layoff fashion the amount of on-boarding needed to teach these complex systems to new people is immense and highly inefficient, and not everyone will get up to speed as quickly as others. Some never get up to speed

@thaGaGaGuy @Speedkicks It would, but that's not a hypothetical. Layoffs are designed to be a surprise and keeping documentation up to date is a near-impossible task under the best circumstances. Dozens of "I'm the only person who knows how to do this" people are gone and their knowledge with them

Hypothetically speaking, if you take the incredibly skilled team responsible for building something as large and complex as Fortnite, and then replace them with an equally skilled team, they would do a noticeably worse job.

@tafokints It's the reason in the 2000s people would insist you shouldn't train fighting games online: you play against bad people who force you to learn bad habits in order to counter their dumb ideas.

@tafokints Plat: Will do really dumb things that learning to anticipate would make you a worse player Emerald: Will do dumb things well Diamond: Will do smart things that you will effectively anticipate I run into this all the time. Same thing in Tekken, same thing in RoA2.

Me in Diamond: 60% WR Me in Plat - Emerald: 45% WR I don’t understand this elo

@MrBitterTV 👀

I'm looking for a handful of play testers to check out an in-development game for a 1 hour anonymous / blind taste test. Please say hi if you'd be down to check out something I think is neat!

@64BitsAnimation A game I'd buy in a heartbeat!

I think this is still my most favorite project we've done ❤️

@shmoosey mans out here uwufishing

went on a first date with a guy who lied about being an anime/manga nerd ??? what the hell is this lol my culture is not your costume

@KBradJStorm It certainly would explain the excellent 2d illustrated art and interesting gameplay mechanics

@KBradJStorm Tell you what - can't say for sure but the publisher has only ever published two other games: Them's Fightin Herds and Diesel Legacy. It might be mane6! store.steampowered.com/publisher/GG_I…

Yo, real shit Who is making Avatar Legends? Where is their office located? I'm about to run up on them so I can play the game. Never watched Avatar in my life but finished it a few days ago and I NEED THIS GAME!!! Like I need this game injected into my veins!

@OutLaw_Shawn @NickSweatTV And I will

they want you to play overwatch now @TheDerrit @NickSweatTV
