It’s gonna be 2 weeks before I get any income from my new job. If you dont mind a long wait, I have waist up comms with flat colors starting at $65, and simple shading at $80. Please dm me here or on discord to justgoodnotgr8 for more info.

Thanks to those who gave already, I need another 100-150$, but what I got is gonna help tremendously, too. I can't put into words how grateful I am that people are willing to give.

I knew this one was coming, but I'm gonna need a little bit of help again. The timing of my first pay with my new job couldn't possibly be worse and on top of it it won't be a full one, I'm getting half at most. If anyone can help it would be greatly appreciated. paypal.me/BY2K

Boltgun 2 is the type of iterative sequel that I personally would like to see more of. It took a solid foundation and, kept the stuff that worked well, and improved the stuff that didn't. Me likey.

One important piece of context that many people might not realize: Shutting down a game studio is expensive. Shutting down a French game studio — thanks to labor laws requiring an extended severance period — is VERY expensive. Xbox doesn't want to take on those costs.

Let me share some positive news for a change: Despite all the gloomy headlines today, my understanding is that there are multiple paths actively being explored that would save Arkane Lyon. Anything can happen during negotiations, but at this point I'd be surprised if the studio is shut down.

Le Monde say that Arkane Studios has until Nov 13 to find a buyer or they'll be shut down. Blade is allegedly nearing the end of production too. Hoping they can find a buyer but I'm prepared for the worst. Another great studio with 217 employees sacrificed for nothing. www.lemonde.fr/pixels/artic...

I'm just going to assume that outside of GTA and yearly titles, every Western AAA game that's come out or is about to come out will be the studio's last. E-Day will be the last Gears game, Doom: The Dark Ages will be the last id game, etc. It sucks but what other conclusion can I draw?
