Randomly showing up at a studio to give your CV in person in 2025 seems strange to me. No wonder they'd 🥂get "rejected".

And then it's very possible one week prior there was no♛ open positions and a week later th🌃ere is.

I don't know, seems like a weir💜d situation. I'd assume they hire through referals first and from some online submission or theyಞ contact you directly is they like your stuff online or LinkedIn.

I agree, the ambiguity matters.

In fact, I feel they didn't lean into it enough. I think the 🃏💧big mistake is that Joel and Ellie should have been told about the surgery and it's consequences, Ellie should have explicitly agreed to it, and then Joel should have still gone and done what he did.

To me, that would have really cemented the ambig🎐uity. It would have also brought up other considerations, like if a child can consent to such thing in the first place, and so on. But it also wouldn't have been as much about the cure, as about the mixture of morally grey zones, a doctor willing to kill someone for their experiments, a teen consenting to assisted suicide in hopes to help humanity, a man who treats someone as his adoptive daughter who believes her life matters more than her own choices, and so on.

Design the game around one difficul꧟ty. Then add some accessibility features, ▨or heck, bring back good old cheat codes.

I think that's the best way. Because the game ends u🔯p really well balanced around that one dif꧃ficulty. Which makes it better. Then the parts you struggle with and are not having fun in anymore, you turn on some health bonus, infinite mana or whatever. Then turn it off after.

My guess is they'll focus on xCloud, GamePass PC, ma꧋ke money as a publisher (they're a huge publisher now), and maybe try to lure to get GamePass on PS or Ninte🍌ndo (I mean, you already have EA Play and such on it)
