Clapping back at angry gamers on Reddit as a dev is always so tempting but you basically need to roll nat 20s on persuasion and humor to pull it off successfully. Many a good dev has fallen in the attempt. Godspeed to the helldivers team

We're making a 40 player platform fighter battle royale. BUT we might not actually ship it. We're playtesting in public to find out whether we should. This isn't rhetoric—we're serious. If you love it, we double down. If not, we icebox it. NA playtest starts Friday on Steam.

If you are a content creator who likes platform fighters, DM me. We're doing a creator preview event for Byte Breakers TONIGHT and TOMORROW NIGHT. Be the first to play and get footage before we open the doors more widely.

Tweeting the phrase "I hate [a specific dev's name]" is calling down harassment on a specific dev. Hope this helps! (Disclaimer: I am no longer a Respawn employee, but even if I were I'd still be hitting you with this 🤡)

By this same logic Palworld has "lost 95% of its players" It's the #13 top-grossing game in the history of Steam #12 highest-grossing Steam game is Helldivers 2 btw lol CCU is less important than sales for non-F2P games

Whenever journalists mention League of Legends in a news story they always pick the most out-of-date and hideous screenshot of the game possible. I’m convinced this is an intentional running joke and that all media is in on it

Crypto people don’t understand why the gamers are being mean to them, which is actually the first step toward becoming a real game developer.

i kinda can't believe the framerate too, like the animations are so smooth
