One of the few things I knew before reading Play Nice :D It was a great experience tying together everything between your book and Kaplan's interview, though! What a great feeling it must be to see your investigative work go full circle
Quick note for @connormakar.bsky.social that the "CFO" Kaplan was talking about was most certainly not Dennis Durkin but Armin Zerza. He has always been the guy holding the financial reins at Blizzard, even then. Also, lots of reports from ex-Blizzardites over at Twitter.
That's it, that's the one opinion that matters, pack up, everyone!
BREAKING: PlayStation is shutting down Bluepoint Games, the studio responsible for modern remakes of classic games such as Demon's Souls and Shadow of the Colossus, Bloomberg News has learned.
A shocking end for a well-respected studio.
Wonderful! The best thing that has happened to the franchise in YEARS!
Take this, you might need it today
Innerhalb von zwei Wochen zuerst den ehemaligen WG-Kollegen und jetzt die Podcast-Bekanntin im Spiegel ... Mein Umgang ist gut!
Oh wow it's BIG
Very sorry about this :(
GGG once again pledged allegiance to their home country and its Maori culture. I'm always up for dark fantasy ARPG settings, but this mash-up will always take the cake for me these days, not even close.
Feel better soon, doggo :(
Some I do talk about Sorc, yes! :)
There's not a whole lot of Mana to get outside of MWing Axial Conduit since the Paragon rework. Besides, there are better ways to scale damage through item affixes than Max Resource!
The next book just writes itself
We see all of you!!!
Some PR replies around this anniversary seem suspicious 🤔
Time flies when you're writing about lore!

Great article that reads like a final goodbye message

🚨Signal boost!🚨
If you worked at Blizzard from 1997-2006, specifically on StarCraft, Diablo, or WoW, I want to talk to you about Mark Kern.
Same goes for Red5 employees.
Our convo can be fully anon if you prefer, and we can chat via Signal, phone call, vid chat, whatever!
To clarify: This is beyond terrible in so, so many ways.
However, there's one good thing about it: The leak will help Europeans understand what this US government is actually trying to achieve.
To become the "leader of the free world"? No. Trump sees himself as a service provider.
Countless historic events have happened over the last decade, and I can safely say that this particular part of the US Government/Houthi leak will live rent-free in my head for the rest of my life:
JD Vance: "I will say a prayer for victory"
*Michael Waltz set disappearing message time to 4 weeks*
Found the Underpin pun!
Excited for this one!
On our way home, my nephew, 7, explained to me the ins and outs of Minecraft's early game. Wood, sheep, bed, everything - a well-spoken guide.
In return, I showed him Diablo 2: Resurrected gameplay - "ohhh, a very interesting game!", he said.
Has the Golden Age finally begun?
