@roman_fusco @IGN lol oops

most of my life i don’t hang out with gamers. only recently. im always shocked how many gamers i meet who dont read books, listen to music, watch a variety of films, or even TV.

learning these other mediums enriches my appreciation for games but also helps me understand its limits. for example, i think most games writing on paper is bad compared to other media. but how games incorporate play into narrative can elevate the form. it’s what makes your favorite games of all time so special beyond other forms of art.

Weapons is the most Junji Ito film i’ve ever seen

My friend and I did a quick Death Stranding 2 Cosplay at San Diego Comic Con. She made custom stencils off key art and made a pizza box for it!

@TheCartelDel So excited, i high key agree: the devs are going to make us really fall in love or at least deeply empathize with this couple. ahhh so excited

[Joanna Fang, MPSE @_Foley_Artist]

by allowing the player to customize both couples and then making sure their love story plays out beat by beat, I think the game could pull off a level of empathy in the story in only ways a game can. It’s inspiring: it might actually shift culture

[Joanna Fang, MPSE @_Foley_Artist]

Something I enjoyed in the new GTA 6 trailer: the devs absolutely want you to fall in love with Lucia and empathize with the couple. It’ll be interesting to see if they could melt the hearts of the same fools who would call her inclusion in the game as “woke”

[Del @TheCartelDel]

For me, one of my biggest anticipations for GTA 6's story, is how awesome it is to be in love with a woman - something that was really cool when I was growing up.

[Joanna Fang, MPSE @_Foley_Artist]

Some comments on here are claiming this is “underwhelming”, while my helldivers discord server is hyped. my friends often duel large enemies with the entrenchment tool like it’s Elden Ring, we’ve role played Napoleonic era combat. This is going to be a fun and hysterical release

I am so excited for the world to join us on this journey. I’ve given it my entire heart, the whole team has been working so hard.

June 26th can’t come soon enough.

[HIDEO_KOJIMA @HIDEO_KOJIMA_EN]

We have released the latest trailer for “DEATH STRANDING 2 ON THE BEACH.” I edited it myself with the worldview, era, theme, story, characters, gameplay, music, the connection to the first game, and its evolution as a sequel in mind. I have incorporated various hints and puzzle pieces throughout. Please enjoy the time leading up to the release of the game by watching it many times and reflect and discuss it.

⭐️This is the English audio version.

So funny getting formative car experiences at age 33. My friends are like "🙄yeah pretty cool huh?”. Meanwhile i'm weeping behind my sunglasses with the windows down, wind in my hair, sunrise in the rearview, sundress flapping, driving to my childhood home. “It’s so beatiful 😭”

[Joanna Fang, MPSE @_Foley_Artist]

@benton_madsen @worldlycounsel good luck dude!!! crush em

[Joanna Fang, MPSE @_Foley_Artist]

selecting the right tools for a gear pass, walking heels or boots, It’s all just draping. Gun Foley for instance, portrays a sound that captures a feeling rather than something forensic, often lookings at concept art and bringing it to life. It’s as much fashion but with sound

[Joanna Fang, MPSE @_Foley_Artist]

Foley is sonic cosplay. we break down the clothing, props, and shoes of the character: and then portray them in the world or the story. I say “weaponized asmr” to describe the effect of Foley but in the craft, we are sonically dressing the character. And then, walking the runway

[Joanna Fang, MPSE @_Foley_Artist]

Congratulations team!!

[Academy of Interactive Arts & Sciences @Official_AIAS]

And the #DICEAwards for Outstanding Achievement in Audio Design goes to HELLDIVERS 2! Congratulations @ArrowheadGS
