Hello! I'm Jade King, and I thought I'd put together a pinned tweet thread compiling some of the most interesting and rewarding work that I've done over the past few months.

Backlash to The Game Awards has been so extensive this year because we had a foolish hope that after twelve of the best months in gaming history, in which many of those responsible for bringing them to life have been subject to hardship, there was a chance Keighley might (1/4)

Thanks To Them is spectacular, and a worthy opening act for

It has so many heartwarming moments, emotional stakes, and cool surprises.

In this piece I explore the historically tiresome relationship Hollywood has with animation and the opinion that it's a medium only for children.
Time and time again that's been proven otherwise but we're still having the same debate.

Suletta and Miorine aren't gals being pals, and stating a queer relationship is open for fans to interpret is arguably more hurtful than denying it completely.

It won’t change, and Keighley needs to pick a lane that doesn’t boil down to telling GOTY winners to hurry up and stop giving tribute to late devs so he can show another trailer for a game that won’t be out for several years. It’s so embarrassing. (4/4)

I try and avoid being cynical about my line of work so I don’t completely self destruct, but it’s hard to feel any positivity at all when this medium is held hostage by a ceremony focused on hyping up what comes next while never taking a second to see how far we’ve come. (3/4)

After playing the first three hours of 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim, I can honestly say it's one of the most fascinating things I've seen this year.

It's hard not to believe speeches weren't cut short to avoid anyone saying anything that mattered.
Keighley is a coward.
Hey all! Happy venba got so much attention tonight. We didn't win but I wanted to share my short speech that I would've said:

Just please speak to actual trans people about things like this. The fact you aren't is bigotry in itself, believing you can speak for us and decide our rights in a country that is making it increasingly difficult to exist in with dire healthcare, harrassment, and so much more.
