Mass Effect was my ultimate white whale, my all-time dream project. For the last couple years I'd been in discussion w/ BioWare & EA to take on the project & as part of that I wrote close to 20 minutes of music to explore where the franchise can go next, may as well share it!

BioWare has always inspired us, and it's hard to say goodbye to our idols. Thank you for everything, @BioWare. Many of us wouldn’t be in the games industry without your legacy.
I fucking HATE this goddamn fucking industry. My heart is breaking for the developers. I am so fucking sad about all their IPs and the amazing work they have delivered over the years.
I wanna punch a fucking wall.
😭😭😭
As always, happy news turns into a battlefield within an hour.
I'm just excited and happy, so I'm going to focus on that. Yes, I'm going to keep my expectations realistic but I'm also going to celebrate it because this is a BIG moment that I couldn't have foreseen in my wildest dreams.
Call it ignorant, or a repeating cycle.
Maybe that is valid.
I'm just happy that, for now, the future looks bright for a franchise I hold so dear to my heart.
I am going to fucking CRY 😭😭
This is why I always say, showing up MATTERS and being vocal MATTERS. Because doing nothing will always guarentee in the worst outcome.
Gosh I am so happy❤️
Today, we’re sharing more about the future of Bungie, including our plans for Destiny, Marathon, and how we’re changing the way we work.

I am going to cry. This is INCREDIBLE and I can’t wait to play it.
My youth, the game that started it all❤️
Reborn through time.
The Legend of #Zelda: Ocarina of Time launches November 5th, only on #NintendoSwitch2.
I’m sorry, I can’t take anyone seriously who is sharing those freaking DLSS videos and saying it looks way better.
Every time i see them on my feed, I am reminded of those awful AI drama shorts on Tiktok.
Like, yuck.
People that defended AI Slop from the start defend DLSS Slop.
Wow. Shocker.
Look, I prefer my games with artistic intent and with a vision. I love games I can replay in 10 years and think:
Holy shit, this artstyle aged like fine fucking wine.
I am here to enjoy games, not consume them.
Back when the Xbox One was revealed, they made pretty much every wrong decision possible. It ended up being THE reason I switched from Xbox 360 to PS4.
Now with PlayStation moving towards a digital only future, Xbox has a real chance to win me (and possibly others) back if they commit to a disc drive for their next console and by releasing their games in a physical format.
I don’t have any loyalty to a platform. I just want to be able to play the games I buy years or heck even decades from now.
Call me old, but I will always prefer owning my games physically. 💃
A lot of the takes I've been seeing are honestly pretty frustrating. So many are acting like they know exactly what's going on while having zero insight into the project and/or how game development actually works.
I get that it's popular to jump on the Ubisoft hate train, and to be fair Ubi leadership has made plenty of awful/questionable decisions over the years. But Ubisoft Montpellier is a studio I have a lot of faith in.
Yes.. The game has been in development for a long time (since 2017 to be precise), but it's worth remembering that the 2008 & 2017 versions are two completely different projects.
I have full confidence in the team at Montpellier, its a team with heart and passion for the BGE franchise and I know they are cooking.
As someone who collects physical games, I fucking LOATHE this decision.

Readers added context they thought people might want to know
PlayStation gains power over the consumer by disallowing new physical games and forcing digital.
For example, in the EU, PlayStation’s ToS says your digital games can be deleted after 36 months of account inactivity. All your games you paid for, poof, gone. See Section 21.

"We recognize that Bungie's leadership fell short of its responsibilities to our Devs, our community and the future of Destiny"
There.. Fixed it for you.
Because this is NOT on the Devs. Or on Destiny.
Hi all,
Sadly a number of my Destiny 3D-printable figurines have been removed due to a copyright claim.
I'm not sure how long the remaining will be downloadable, so if you want to print them, this is your final chance to get them for free🫶

I'm not going to lie, this one stings a bit and feels like the end of an era for me.
For many years creating these printable models was my way of honoring a game & universe I loved. The incredible artists and developers at Bungie inspired me to grow as a 3D artist and developer. What started as a small passion project grew into something much bigger than I could have expected.
Seeing your prints, paint jobs, photos and messages over the years has been so freaking cool and i'm super grateful to everyone who supported my work.
And to the Bungie Devs whose work inspired me to create them in the first place:
Thank you🫶
Look I'm freaking sad about the whole situation around Destiny 2 and Bungie, but some of y'all really need to take a step back and ... breathe.
Two things can be true at once, Destiny has a large and dedicated community, but it has also been struggling for the past couple of years.
Leadership made the wrong decisions, not the devs. Marathon was never to blame, nor its community and actively trying to harm it makes YOU the bad guy.
And if you are actively trying to rile up the community based on unverified claims then you are adding to the drama and problems. This will fix nothing.
Fucking hate the state of our industry man.
So many wonderful IPs and studios gone to waste, and incredible talent and people losing their jobs/incomes.
Absolutely insane.
I still can't believe this is real.
I'm so freaking happy.
The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time will be reborn on Nintendo Switch 2 in 2026. #NintendoDirect
