I make games, but I also don't come here much anymore.

@TeamYouTube Hi again and thanks for the quick reply. I took a look at the steps listed and after recovering my Google account, it looks like my channel has had it's ownership transferred away somehow. It's not appearing in the list of channels when I login to YouTube. What are the next step?

[Ben @Tendonagon]

Hey @TeamYouTube. It looks like my old YouTube Channel has been hacked and disconnected from the email address that it was previously associated to. How can I get it back?

Here's a link to the channel's legacy URL: https://t.co/WQwfH3P4yE

Cheers!

It's been 10 years since Alien: Isolation was released! My first game credit and man what a game it is. Just wanna say that I appreciate all of you who've played it. I l tested the PC version just before release and had an absolute blast. The rest is history!🙂 #AlienIsolation10

In celebration of the 10th Anniversary a message from creative director, Al Hope: #AlienIsolation10

@YangyYoung @TeamRespawnTV Got a bit of trivia here as to why Hellbringers are Scots. In HW2 there was a push to represent the UNSC as a multi-nation organisation. One of the EPs was a Scot and requested for a unit with a Scots accent. The role went to Graham McTavish who was Dwalin in the Hobbit trilogy.

Thrones of Decay drops tomorrow for @totalwar Warhammer 3! As ever it's been a pleasure making this with the DLC team at @CAGames. We've got some real solid units in this one that push the envelope for TW even further than before, so get tae grudgin'! https://t.co/wDqI2dJrKW

Difficult times affecting so many talented people and close colleagues at CA and SEGA once again; as well as with our friends at Relic.

I'm not at risk this time, but if you are and you want to have a chat or vent some frustration, please do reach out. ❤️

@TomatoJamSalad The commitment to the joke is respectable. I give it a solid 5/7. 💪

@TomatoJamSalad 🤘👀🤘

@MaxNoelBass @GameAccessConf @FrankKlepacki @TheTiberianSons Ahh we all secretly love a bit of shop talk! Sometimes you can't beat a good bit of dev story sharing over a few beers! xD

[Ben @Tendonagon]

Thankyou @GameAccessConf for an amazing time learning and meeting new and old friends in Brno! Cheers to you all for organising and making it such a wonderful experience! Big shout also goes out to @FrankKlepacki and @TheTiberianSons for being a bunch of absolute legends. 🤘🤘

[Ben @Tendonagon]

@TMobergMusic @GameAccessConf @FrankKlepacki @TheTiberianSons Likewise Travis! Hopefully we'll see you in Europe again soon! :D

@totalwar My totally un-biased opinion is that Chaos Dwarfs are the best because they have daemon-forged land trains of doooom! 🤘

@TheCartelDel I did this a few times before I realised that it wasn't working. I wish I'd messaged more people in the industry for advice back then. Now I have a design portfolio even though I'm not looking for work. I'd link it but I broke it the other day with a wordpress update. Ooops.

[Ben @Tendonagon]

@TheCartelDel Developing Total War games happens across a massive relational database with interconnected tools and dependencies.

Modding older C&C games is done in one giant ini file. :D

[Ben @Tendonagon]

Advance Wars 1+2 Reboot Camp is another perfect example of a remaster done right.

My fav thing about it?

The music is incredible. The original went hard, but they've cranked it up to 12.

Cue Adder's CO Power Rave 🤘🤘: https://t.co/fc9c0VQwLj

It's official, I now have a game development story that rivals Fallout 3's train hats. Hidden on every Skaven Doomwheel are 3 invisible rats that shoot lightning at things. We've reached peak Warhammer folks.

@_PartyElite Irn Bru is more like a regular soda rather than an energy drink like Monster and the flavour can be classed as "ferric iron" . There's a great cocktail you can make with it too. 1/2 Irn Bru and 1/2 Cherry Brandy makes a cocktail called Pimpto which is sweet and delicious. 👍

@TGrudges I saw a Magma Cannon in a GW shop on a recent trip to Rotterdam that reminded me that Chaos Dwarfs are a special faction for a lot of people. It was really an honour to be a part of bringing them to life ingame. :)
