Developer Appreciation Week: Games
This week is the start of Developer Appreciation Week! Bel defines this as follows:
The D.A.W. or Developer Appreciation Week is an event that used to happen in our blogging community but fell by the wayside. The idea behind it was it was a week to show our appreciation to the people that make all of those games that we love. The thing is over the years we have grown past just being a “gaming” thing, so for other communities it might be a time to reflect on your favorite Authors, Musicians or just Creatives in general.
I’m going to do a few different appreciation posts throughout the week, but today I wanted to start with games. I’ve really only been playing two games regularly right now: FFXIV and DBD. Though FFXIV has become the favorite as of late.
I’ve written longer posts before about the games and their developers that I appreciate, but today I just really want to shout out a thank you specifically to Dead by Daylight devs (who eventually listen to feedback) and FFXIV devs (who truly seem to care about the community, though Square as a whole needs to do better with the whole -isms within the company thing, but. Y’know.).
Thank you for giving me games that have been keeping me at least somewhat sane this year.
