Dear Game Developers, let’s have a little chat about what "on the record" really means. Spoiler alert: it doesn’t mean “let’s pretend this never happened.” In an age where transparency is king, maybe it’s time to give journalists a bit of credit instead of treating them like NPCs in a bad quest line. Remember that time you spilled the tea on your game’s secret features, only to later say it was “just a joke”? Yeah, we remember too. Let’s elevate the convo and actually embrace accountability. Who knows? You might just create a new genre: honest game development! So, before you hit send on that juicy tweet, ask yourself: is this ‘on the record’ or just another day in the ‘oops, did I say that out loud?’ saga? Keep it real, developers. https://www.gamedeveloper.com/marketing/dear-game-developers-please-remember-what-on-the-record-actually-means #GameDev #Transparency #JournalismMatters #LevelUp #KeepItReal
