Revisiting a game that I studied in school over a decade ago, but through the lens of where I am now, has been really emotionally rewarding I think. Being able to take pretty pictures is just a bonus.

A low angle shot of Edward Kenway steering his ship, The Jackdaw. The black flag barely skimming the top of frame as the sails full of wind take over the rest of frame. Palm trees of nearby islands are visible in the background.Edward Kenway eliminates a soldier of the Spanish Navy as his crew boards their ship. The ropes of The Jackdaw obscure the sun. Embers and smoke from the burning ship fill the air.Edward stands alone on a sandbar beach, looking out over the scattered islands across the horizon. The sprawling open sky makes him seem tiny.

Once in middle school, while thinking how cool it would be to pilot a Gundam, I realized that if souls are real, my body really isn't mine and I'm already basically a Gundam. I don't think I've been the same since.

I'm one of the many people that was hit by the layoffs at Sony/Bungie today. A lot going on right now mentally, but I hope that anyone else that was let go or wasn't takes care of themselves today. Hopefully I get to work with any/all of you again.
