Will definitely be keeping tabs on Patience Is A Virtue! It has so much character already with its early demo.
There was a station specifically for engraving the steel water bottles they were giving out with your gamertag. Jackets, hoodies, photo ops, and, of course, Xbox giveaways. Like every one of the last 100 days, the whole thing was dazzling to the point of nauseating.
1/3 of the game industry has lost their job in the last two years. Ubisoft closed two more studios today. Everyone is out of work. To that end I'm starting a new bundle to benefit a layoffs hardship fund. Game devs: please consider submitting your PAID games to the bundle, which will launch in July.

King. 🙏

My guy has to post this every GAME. Nando walks it off. Let's go.
Thank you Jess for sharing this experience and speaking out.

Sorry, maybe I shouldn't say this but ahahah. I am very angry.
So I went to Xbox's Fan Fest event to attend a preview event. And it was the most flagrant display of wealth imaginable. Five stories filled with caterers and hundreds of smiling faces there to assure me of the brand's strength.
"We're sorry you got a bit irradiated from our game demo we used radiation in our early process and we forgot to remove the radiation when we launched the game. Sorry about that radiation. We won't irradiate you again, promise".
(Spoiler: at launch you will again be irradiated by accidental leaks.)
