We started talking about that documentary with Hippo about a year ago, now. There was so much to say that even 2 hours felt too short to say everything that needed to be said. Still, I think it's a must watch for every gamedev, and every creative really.

The games industry's silence on the Palestinian genocide is disgusting, and this needs to change. To all gamedevs: Please read our letter to The Game Awards, sign it, and share it as much as you can. Palestinians need all the support we can give ✊🏽🇵🇸 📩forms.gle/oxnB1PKMxVuYUJ…

To all the people telling us to "just focus on making games": How dare you. How dare you say that we don't love our craft enough that we'd put it aside for something trivial. How dare you ask us to discard our humanity and stay silent in the face of fucking genocide.

Hear me out: a platform that let Dwarf Fortress players upload their maps to a database. Then a mod that spawns those same fortresses in Caves of Qud, allowing you to explore the ruins of another player's civilisation, millennia later.

See you tomorrow, @GeoffKeighley. I really hope that me, half of your own Future Class and nearly 3000 people of the industry are worth more than 2 silent seconds of your time.

Geoff finally posted a message in the Future Class Discord. It was an audio containing two seconds of literal silence, that he quickly deleted when I called him out.

Not in schools, not at work, not at the beach (!) and the last elections showed us that we barely avoided seeing woman getting fined for wearing their hijab in public spaces. Country of human rights, am I right?

More than a third of @thegameawards's own chosen Future Class and more than 2000 members of the industry want to address Palestinian human rights during the ceremony. Hi, @geoffkeighley. Now would be a good time to contact us about how we can do this.

The workers of our industry have made incredible games recently. I wish the 8000 children in Gaza could have grown up playing them. I wish we could have stood up for them tonight. #TheGameAwards

To the French gamer boycotting my talks cause I'm too "woke" and "political" to speak about video games: I'll travel 800km in this cursed country to come empower my peers and make people like you uncomfortable. And I'll do it again. Get used to it.
