Gamers see a 6/10 review score and then publicly behave as if they just received a dick rating.

I’m typically one to stay out of corporate game drama these days, but Remedy's new CEO Gaudechon does not bode well for the company. A sports betting exec who helmed live-service operations at EA planning to "scale Remedy in a way that builds lasting value" sounds like a bullet to the head.

The only game to ever matter.

Jared Leto‘s Skeletor was probably in the Epstein files

2025 was a year in which I had a lot of creative work published. Feel free to check it all out in this easy to digest list! #poetry #shortstory #stl #stlpoet

It could always be worse: you could be somebody 3-D printing multicolored dragons at a flea market.

#2016 sure was a year I lived though. I should bring back the septum piercing.

I'm gonna tell my kids that this was Heated Rivalry

Post a game you remember playing that nobody else remembers

#PortfolioDay I'm Dustin, a game writer, narrative designer, & VO producer. I have a background in game journalism but would much rather make something than tear it apart. I'm a member of #IGDA, #ISA, and a #TND alumni. I'll be attending my first #GDC this year! - oh, & I write award-winning poetry.

I’m geeked up on that pure Na’vi yayo while an eight foot tall goth cat gf cuts me. I’m high off that Pandora Payakan talking directly to the ancestors. We sipping pure Tulkun brain goo. That Mangkwan coochie got me waging war on Eywa. I’ve died. I will die again. This shit ain’t nothing to me man.

Gen-AI exists solely for the type of person who gets offended when their artist friends have the gall to expect payment for drawing them as a SpongeBob character.

This is SO COOL!

"Hey, we are declining your submission. But please submit something else. We can really use the money and it's important to support independent press." - I'm not bitter, as rejection goes hand in hand with creating art, but I found that hilarious.

My latest piece of #poetry, Algorithms Don't Bleed, is now live over at The Modern Artist. It’s a raw meditation on what gets lost when creation is handed over to code—where's the mess, the blood, the breakdowns? www.modernartists.org/team/algorit...

Allow me to (re)introduce myself. My name is Dustin Triplett. I live in St. Louis. I write things. #Poetry, #prose, creative #nonfiction - if it hurts a little, I’m probably chasing it.
