I worked for 7 years to get my job, only to lose it to "restructuring".

- I can't take FromSoftware fans who make game difficulty their whole identity. Like bro, Lion King on Sega Genesis was dumb hard, but I didn't make it my whole personality.
- Replying to @CasanovaCed"Maybe we're busy and can't watch it on Sunday!" Oh, but you're not too busy for Twitter?
GIF - Now that Ziff Davis has laid me off, I'll be looking for work opportunities elsewhere. Any help that y'all can offer, it would mean the world to me. I'm a very humble person, but I know that I kick ass at what I do. I won't let you down.
- Cyberpunk 2077: So detailed, even the litter is hand placed. Also Cyberpunk 2077: "Ay what's up pendejo! Did you know I'm mexican, vato? Cool, get some pantalones on your culo so we can go quest and shit."
- Fromsoftware games ARE NOT MEANT TO HAVE PHOTO MODE. These INCREDIBLY DIFFICULT games are meant to be lived, felt, not filed away with the rest of your screenshots. You want a lasting image of Elden Ring? Get gud, and develop photographic memory like the rest of us REAL FANS.In need of a photo mode for Elden Ring? PC players rejoice! Modder @FransBouma has released a feature-rich modification for FromSoftware's latest, allowing you complete camera movement, pause function, FOV control, and a lot more. bit.ly/3HRvYaP
- I've been a contractor, editing video over at IGN for almost a year now, however that has come to an end. Starting tomorrow, I'll be a full-time producer at IGN. I'm still in shock that I can work alongside folks I've looked up to for so long and respect so deeply. It's wild.In a few weeks time, I'm going to RT this with some good news... Delivering meds on foot, holding my deliveries in one hand, and having google docs open on my phone in the other while writing Kotaku video scripts and Digital Trends articles was worth it.
- When you remember the 6 in Caydes name means his mind has been wiped 6 times, and he uses cards and stashes to remember his past,and his son
GIF - Starting in November, let's just say I won't be looking for any more freelance work ☺️ Everyone on the team has been lovely so far, and I'm so excited to be editing for IGN full time!
- Breath of the Wild was a great game, but not gods gift to gaming like most people think it was.
- I just consumed one of these so that I could get a Diablo beta code... I feel dirty and ashamed.
- Replying to @adnlewis and @CasanovaCedMute tags, skim the tl, have the sense to not be on social. Done all those for years and haven't had a single show or movie spoiled.
- I guess my desk is going to look a little different from now on... Because I'll be a full-time contractor for Owlchemy Labs! I can't wait to work with the awesome folks here and help produce video content that gets you all excited for their upcoming games! 😄
