The future of game development is looking more and more like the kind of relationship authors have with book publishers.
Get ready for a future of total nichification of weird. It's gonna be awesome and terrible at the same time.

predicting we are going to see a huge growth in the friendslop genre because it meets the needs of people right now: social tightening, low stakes, whimsical. closest we’ve been to couch co-op in the “everything online all the time” era.

Great design = serving needs.

Finally finished stranger things season 5 and I’m coining it Deus Ex MacGuffina for the sheer number of random sudden realization solutions and amount of random objects just to help the plot move forward.

Shoulda just been the last 3 episodes with more character moments.

Okay hear me out - Canada hockey jersey but it’s old school off-white, classic big red leaf emblem in the middle, Hudson Bay stripes on the sleeves, collar, and bottom.
Classic Canadiana honouring our heritage and nationalizing the pattern.

The fact that conservatives are leaving the party to join the liberals over this budget tells me everything I need to know.
Time to vote the budget through and put country before party.

Proud to still have MP’s like Chris d’Entremont in Canada.

Game designers out there for the love of design hear me when I say you aren’t a “senior designer” if all you can do is copy 1:1 other designs you see in games. Your designs need to be derived from core player motives.

So tired of this lazy copycat design mentality. Do better.

Carney has been in office for just a few weeks and it already feels like Canada is becoming a better country. We haven't lost what makes us who we are but we're growing up a bit here - we're taking ourselves more seriously.

Nicely done so far Carney.

I don't know what god-tier designer programmer changed the Discover Weekly algorithm on @Spotify but I have NEVER had this great of a Discover Weekly playlist before.

I don't know who you are but I hope you know I'm grateful for your work.

[Nath @experienceforge]

In a world where it seems almost impossible to get people to agree on anything, I think the one thing we can all agree on is that @EA reeeeally needs to make another Spore.

To this day this is one of my all-time favourites for game design. I desperately need a remake of this.

At a certain point you just gotta love Anderson for being Anderson. Les Habs ne se laissent pas faire ce soir baby let’s goooooooo 🇨🇦
Game 2 let’s show them Washingtoenails what’s good.

@purplemikey That’s so unsportsmanlike I can’t believe I’m actually reading this

[Nath @experienceforge]

Middle of the second period and Monty is already cleanly achieving statut légendaire.

You got this Habs! We’re all so proud of you for making it here so give em hell every way you can!

[Nath @experienceforge]

@purplemikey Are you serious? That’s unreal levels of petty

[Nath @experienceforge]

Habs fans seeing these absolute vidange calls by the refs.

Someone check on these refs families to make sure Donny Dipshit doesn’t have them locked up in the White House basement as blackmail.

[Nath @experienceforge]

When you defund the education system and you devalue learning history, you get repeats of the Smoot-Hawley Tariffs. All of this is entirely predictable because it's happened before.

Way to go America. Relive a massive mistake instead of reading a book. Amazing trade-off.

[Nath @experienceforge]

#CONCACAF has a seriously suspicious streak of absolutely terrible calls against Canada 🇨🇦

At this point I’m sus af against these refs. That red card on Jesse was so uncalled for.

[Nath @experienceforge]

Can’t take Canada over so y’all going crawling to daddy now?

The way these dives are going in the Canada vs Mexico CONCACAF game, I’m convinced the Mexican team could sell water to a fish.

These dives go so hard their Olympic team should take notes.

Just play the damn game guys. Diving ruins the sport.

[Nath @experienceforge]

Well I'm an hour and a half in and I feel like it's safe to say that the new Assassins Creed Shadows is an absolute BANGER!
I love the nods to classic Japanese cinema in there - chefs kiss gang, really well done so far.
The story set up is fantastic as well.
