@johnnychugs.bsky.socialReposted by @davidlcraddock.bsky.socialHaving played Dead by Daylight for years, the deep nitty gritty of what went into it and the steps that led to the game we know today are incredible in @davidlcraddock.bsky.social's latest long read. DbD fans need to check this out.

@ryoko90210.bsky.socialReposted by @davidlcraddock.bsky.socialWonderful book. Loved it. Was kinda into MK when I was younger but all the stuff that was his made me super interested in the game and the scene. Can't reccomend enough.

@jordanwminor.bsky.socialReposted by @davidlcraddock.bsky.socialI wanted to remember why I'm excited for GTA VI as a video game, not a media spectacle, so I wrote about communing with the source and replaying the still-spectacular Grand Theft Auto: Vice City www.pcmag.com/opinions/ret...
@jordanwminor.bsky.socialReposted by @davidlcraddock.bsky.socialIn which I compare Vice City with Happy Days
