👏Hi there! I’m Bear, a Product Designer, a Design Mentor, and an Apple Award-Winning Podcast Host.
After working for over 10 years as a graphic and multimedia designer in China, I moved to a new country without any local working experience, let alone experience in UX. This was a challenging but stimulating move, right? I taught myself UX in 6 months and landed my first UX job with New Zealand's top fitness company. Now, I'm a Product Designer at one of the best tech companies in the Southern Hemisphere, and I'm mentoring design students to transition their career to design and start their UX Design journey. Between my work hours and family time, I read, draw, do podcasts and make videos around tech, design and productivity.

Great explanation! I agree with your criticism, it all seems just like there was not that much thought put into it, especially considering the very high price for basically just wallpaper. The app doesn’t make any sense to me in general, like who knows 5 of those random artists 🥲 the design gives me Pinterest vibes, just not as intuitive and conclusive as I’d like.
I generally watch playthroughs of games on RU-vid coz I dont have a device capable of experiencing gaming but when I started watching The Rad Brad play Death Stranding, I enjoyed it to such a point that I paused and decided that this I'd love to experience myself without spoilers, the art style, the story, Hideos movie culture and hidden references, those special moments just traversing land, strangers that u dont see or meet helping each other etc, just amazing.
I genuinely hope you're able to acquire a gaming device soon! Death Stranding was such an unforgettable experience. As someone who usually stuck to Soulsborne games and Souls-likes, I was initially pretty concerned about my purchase of DS, but I loved the MGS games so much from back in the day that I figured I'd give it a shot. I now rank it as high as FromSoft's games - very different genres of games, of course, but I was just so addicted to Death Stranding's gameplay loop. What an incredible experiment by Hideo, and I'm all the more looking forward to the sequel!
That was my experience, too! I watched it a few years ago and found that I want to experience it. Recently got a Steam Deck, and finally, I can play. It's available on Mac. If you're using a Mac, it could be a good time :)
Something about this game is so intimate; You spend these long stretches of gameplay just walking around alone listening to this mellow and soft music, and after a while you'll latch on to Sam, not as a character, but as a friend- or as you.
Innovative idea. Excited to try this approach of digital sticky notes made for book notes. Also, so efficient and valuable to be able to have doodles & a visual board map at a glance
nah your wrong, there can be copyright strikes on RU-vid, you can be sued for placing something from a company, and naming it that what the company named.@@Skibidi_toilet8374
