Occasionally if age is mentioned and I'm speaking to someone in fairly sure won't ever discover the truth I'll vastly overstate my age just to get the compliments of how good I look. Told the barber last week I'm 46 and he was amazed at how great my hair is. I'm actually 32.

The liberating moment when I profoundly fell back in love with games again was when I stopped thinking I knew better about design than designers. I do my best to experience what the authors prepared and see if it resonates with me, rather than going in with a list of demands.
Anti-art might be a bit much. Personally, I think it's extremely important to at first engage with the game how it was intended, and do your best even if at the beginning it may feel like it's not to your liking. There must be a reason the designer made the choices they did.

Ever had those weeks at work where you're just so tired that by the time you get home, you just want to listen to old video game music and not think about anything?

Watching two classic DOOM deathmatch players unexpectedly steal the show at Quakecon back when they still did Quake Live tournaments teapaw.org/i/status/2014899192380… teapaw.org/i/status/2014899192380…
What’s a gaming memory that still makes you smile?

it's so much easier to be friends with people who are a little crazy cause you don't gotta worry about saying something crazy and being judged for it cause they're crazy so they get it

The thing with working online is, years of positive energy gets forgotten when one negative moment happens. People take the worst moments, and hold them as a complete version of you. You are either pure, or fallen, no inbetween, and that is such a dangerous divide to enforce.

The Game Awards don’t deserve to be taken seriously because they don’t take video games seriously. From its presentation to its overvaluing of games as a ā€œcinematic storytelling mediumā€ it represents the pinnacle of ā€œpeople ashamed to be working on games instead of moviesā€

How about awards for best controls? Best difficulty+balancing? Best level design? Best optimization? Best user interface? Things that are unique to VIDEO GAMES? Not there, because that would mean the people in charge actually know what makes video games a distinct medium.
