It's the result of using Mercator maps to show a spherical globe on a flat piece of paper. It warps the sizes of lands near the poles, making Alaska seem to be half the size of the lower 48 and makes Greenland look bigger than South America, when it's actually smaller than Brazil.

Lol. Interesting insight into Phil with a sly dig at Bethesda. Got to love him. |
This insinuates that Phil is more hands on than we think? Many studios have been talking about how hands off Microsoft has been, even too hands off, but this is kinda saying otherwise.
If a massive holiday game like Starfield could get delayed, many are asking why didn't Halo Infinite get that sort of delay? I mean, the end of 2021 was a good one for Xbox. Infinite definitely could've used some extra time, and would've ended up being the biggest exclusive for Xbox in 2022

Avowed's narrative lead has left Obsidian. I would hope most of the story would be done and written by now, so perhaps her work is done. Wish her the best!
After five amazing years at Obsidian, I'm leaving the studio to pursue my personal creative endeavors! This is my last week with the team. I'm so grateful to the many brilliant designers I've been lucky to learn from, and to the dear friends I've made here. Thank you all. ❤️

Ryuu96 said: Shame. I wonder who the Lead Writer on The Outer Worlds 2 is, Megan Starks? FWIW Carrie Patel who is a Director on Avowed was also Narrative Designer on PoE and Narrative Co-Lead on PoE 2 so I suspect she could pick up on some stuff even if Avowed's story isn't quite finished. One thing I've wondered, Josh Sawyer was a Design Director on The Outer Worlds so he still is involved a little in the larger projects, I wonder if he has any role or influence over Avowed being as he created Pillars of Eternity. |
Megan certainly could take that role since she was the Narrative Lead and Game Director for the Murder on Eridanos DLC which I really liked!
I was wondering if Josh had a role of some sort on Avowed since the Pillars universe is his baby. But knowing he wanted to step away from larger projects, perhaps he would be more in an Advisor role.

I freaking love that new AI!

Halo Infinite sneaking back into the top 10 is pretty interesting, game is likely selling well despite it being on GamePass.

Yeah, the NPD reports straight sales not including Game Pass numbers. Pretty good sign. Kind of surprising that the month before Infinite was at #13. I sorta thought it would've fallen out of the top 20 by now lol. Shows there's still a lot of interest in Halo, but 343 just has to deliver. I'm hoping we also get a sneak peak at campaign DLC during next months showcase to keep sales of Infinite going.

343 is fixing the "gun jamming" bug, restoring all skill jumps that were removed, and shockingly, bringing back the tank gun!

Ngl, this really does give me a lot of faith that 343 is listening to fan feedback as this was a very quick turnaround. Also, LSS drop pods will have all equipment rather than just overshield and active camo lol
