So if there's a more appropriate place this post can go, a mod can edit/move the post. Just wanted to say I'll be taking some time away from the site, at least until sometime in September.
I've been working on two creative projects and now I want to ramp up production on them both. They are very demanding in terms of time, research, and asset creation (writing, art, documentation etc.) so that will be the main reason. Another reason is because I have become increasingly uneased with the direction the industry is going in, and increasingly unsure as to how certain players will adjust properly (or if they even will adjust properly at all).
Also and I'll be frank: I'm just tired of Microsoft being so present in the media cycle. Call it "fake" and just optics all you want but seeing them, Phil Spencer etc. plastered in all the articles and news pieces is just tiring, especially considering what we know their intentions are and, more importantly, how they intend to make them happen.
Last reason? Well, my last few posts from the past couple days should probably give you a hint.
Anyways, yeah, I'll be away for a while, unless something major happens news-wise. Plus I have some games to catch up on, more time for those will be nice too. I'll (most likely) see (most of) you all sometime in September. Take care
