I always just assumed that being active on socials as an academic would help me networking or exploring all sorts of great games history research

But it hasn’t, ever.

It’s been a cesspool. And it’s been like that for ages. More fool me.

Bye Twitter.

#BitSummit 2024 was fantastic. Excited to share the research we conducted during our trip in the near future. For now, here's a few picture highlights.

I am delighted to have research published in the new Replaying Japan Journal Vol.6, alongside some excellent contributions (excited to read the DQ4 piece).

I'm very grateful to the supportive editorial team and reviewers @rcgstudies #replayingjapan
