There’s an artist producing the most incredible, jaw-dropping England match posters on Instagram and I encourage you to give them a follow 🎨: crymsy www.instagram.com/crymsy?igsh=...

I feel like self-publishing might make sense going forwards to be fair, but it seems like it would have been too late for the current CEO to do anything about the Elden Ring Bandai deal anyway kotaku.com/activist-inv...

Then again, FromSoftware’s next title, The Duskbloods, is fully owned by FromSoftware, including publishing rights. This might indicate that Natsuno is starting to move in a self-publishing direction anyway. It takes time to develop a game, after all. Elden Ring was first revealed in 2019 with a deal already in place with Bandai Namco, a year before Oasis sent its letter about self-publishing. FromSoftware couldn’t very well have dumped its deal at that stage even if it wanted to. Also, Natsuno wasn’t even CEO until 2021, well after these deals were signed.

Obsessed with the guy on the Windrose subreddit who's perfomed extensive testing to figure out the best way to 'pull out your meat' in Windrose (aka decorate your home with inventory items) Includes a 'maximum meat zone' diagram www.reddit.com/r/crosswind/...

F2P game restrictions can force some funny playstyles... I have fond memories of essentially becoming a paramedic in Pirates of the Caribbean Online. I was too weak to fight the skellies during invasions, so I would just run around reviving everyone and saving their asses
