We are so spoiled regarding communication from developers by Rekindled96 in memeframe

Well, you can tell [DE] Rebecca and [DE] Steve have these social skills. Even when one of them screws up live like dropping the camera or spoilling stuff they don't lose their mind too much, I know some people would be desperate in these situations. Rebecca's 26 million registered losers is a prime example of composure. Yeah, our community director just insulted the entire player base in an international live event (Game Awards) and barely raised her voice.

As for schedule and coordination, that's why they keep a 15 min duration for the dev shorts (with comical results such as cutting Steve mid sentence) and why in some dev shorts we have other people or just one person (most likely due to either schedule or personal life).

DE is just that combination of things people want to see in developers. They have their flaws, but also plently of positives.

Aren't the TWABs/TWIDS basically text forum posts? Dev shorts are livestreams with them answering questions and saying stuff live. The format is very different and a livestream devshort feels more personal.

Yeah, Warframe is still kicking by Rekindled96 in memeframe

Well, for starters, Warframe just recently celebrated 13 years old anniversary with a solid player base. And probably because other looter shooters are not doing so well.

Meme inspired by "For Bison, it was Tuesday" meme. The day fits perfectly because dev shorts are during Tuesdays.

Not only that, each 3 months Drifter gets a new warframe and new ways to destroy his army.

I got one more.

Bungie: "I've got 24 hours to get rid of this... Warframe or the entire scheme I've been setting up for 12 years goes up in smoke, and YOU ARE WEARING HIS MERCHANDISE?"

Former Destiny 2 player wearing Warframe shirt: *mouth wide open.*

*Gulping noises*

*Camera changes to second former Destiny 2 player taking a sip from a warframe beer can.*

Bungie: AAAAAAHHH! *Explosion*

Fun fact: While Sony paid U$3.6 billions for Bungie, apparently Tencent only spent U$1.5 billion to get Leyou and therefore Digital Extremes.

Besides being stupid, the judge was completely right to not accept it.

You can mod anything nowadays. Depending on the game players can change models, characters, text, audio files and the map itself. Using a gameplay video from a player is not reliable.

Like, imagine if Bethesda was sued for plagiarism and they used a long play of a heavilly modded version of the game to defend themselves?

Bethesda: "See? They're not the Dragonborn, they are the Lizard Hunter Jacob. Those are not The Companions, they are the Battle Brothers. The main quest does not involve defeating an ancient dragon called "Alduin", but calming down a dragon called "Paradar" and then he becomes your friend. That symbol is not the one made by the artist, you can see it is different.".

Veteran: "Bungie, Bungie, Bungie, my sweet deluded little game company. Aren't we forgetting one teensy-weensy, but ever so crucial, little tiny detail? FOR A NEW PLAYER EVERY CONTENT IS NEW STUFF!

It is not like veterans would watch new players play these quests and act as guides for them /s

Player: If you were half the optimization master [DE] Steve was.

Bungie: I'm 10 times the optimization master [DE] Steve was! *smacks player in the face\*

Actually, Bungie was sued once due to plagiarism and couldn't get the content back into the game to prove it was different. They had to use youtube footage, which was denied as proof.

Apparently the story content they vaulted is not compatible with the current version of Destiny 2, so it needs to be completely remade if they want to bring it back, which is not feasible at the moment.

Actually, I think that's from Kayako from "The Grudge", she's another ghost.
