assigned art director is probably Hannah Kennedy.

After looking through her art, I now want whatever this is to be made into a game.

Huh, so Feargus really did just let Josh do whatever he wanted so he stopped screwing up their other games.

He gets paid $213k/year just to fuck around on his passion projects. This is a reward for the strain they put him on during Deadfire.

I strain myself harder on the crapper than Sawyer ever did trying to develop anything playable

 

[d1r]

Isn't he the lead writer for this game?

 

[Fedora Master]

His "shitposting" is about on par with his RPG making skills.

Brett Klosser is likely Pentiment's lead programmer.

"Working on an unannounced project at Obsidian to help produce a prototype game proposal using the Unity game engine. Inherited a starter project with a mature tooling backend created for another game and greatly expanded the project to fit new requirements of the new project. The team is very small and agile with frequent shifting of goals and priorities. I was the sole engineering resource for the project during prototype and managed the needs of all departments. These needs include console platform support, build systems, engine feature support, and new feature development."

With this art direction and Sawyer writing the whole game, I'd say we have a on our hands.

He used the nail polish emoji. This is a defining moment in gaming history.

Pentiment, the ultimative nail polish RPG simulator?

It means the game is now being tested in Poland.

He's just trying to keep the attention of our resident foot fetishists.

Usually midlife crisis means impetuous spending, having an affair, heavy drinking etc. Josh went for gender dysphoria instead. Truly an avantgarde man.

If the dude turns tranny I would not be shocked in the least bit. A guy I knew online came back from a hiatus and posted a pic of him looking like some ugly girl and he did not get the response he expected. I bet he moved over here now that I think about it.

All the signs are pointing towards it: he drives a Fiat, collects sewing machines, drinks cocktails with funny names, hangs out with prostitutes, and God knows what else. The writing's on the wall.

Drives a fiat and hangs out with prostitutes? Oh no. Sawyers middle life crisis is pivoting away from being Austrian and trying to be Italian.

That's a hand.

Ooooh, so that's what that emoji is! It always looked some weird crown-thing holding a shovel to me...
