I look back at what I learned form my time at ZeniMax Online Studios.

With the popularity of Marvel Rivals, I want to talk about healers, player fantasies, and Batman in a hypothetical “DC Rivals”.

I’m shifting to a new engine at the recommendation of some peers I met at GDC.

There’s no such thing as a “horror game”, despite it being one of the most popular game genres.

I’ve begun work on a Unity prototype for an Overwatch Hero inspired by the old Team Fortress 2 Guard Dog hoax.

In which I discuss the issues faced by Pokémon Scarlet and Violet’s open-world and some concepts to address them.

I discuss a genre gamers call “cinematic games”, games built to feel like interactive films or TV series, and how one particular game approaches the aesthetic in a way like no other.

In which I discuss the prevalence of the “swordie” archetype, both gameplay-wise and aesthetically, in one of my favorite game series, and my thoughts on why they are so common.

I discuss my thoughts on Marvel Rivals before its release, taking into account my past with class-based shooters and absence from the genre’s modern landscape.

I discuss my first impressions of the new expansion to Risk of Rain 2, Seekers of the Storm, and talk about how a glitch turned me into a phantom on the face of Petrichor V.
