Hey folks! We wanted to share a quick update on the new studio, what we are building and how. The team recently met up in person for a week to talk about a variety of topics to get us started on building the company as well as building out our first game through prototyping. As…

I’ve stayed quiet but it hurts to see fans point fingers at the devs or Riot Games while the ones who steered the ship get praised? That’s been the hardest part to swallow.

Riot was an absolute pleasure to work with, from people to leaders. They understood the power of empowering and giving folks agency. The issues were all internal to Hytales leadership.

It's hard watching something you cared so much about slowly burn. Especially when you're forced to stay silent and smile while it happens

I'm a D1 Rito hater by nature But Riot were absolutely great to work with Every Rioter I met was a pleasure None of this was on them. The problems weren’t theirs

It absolutely ruined my health. During my employment at Hypixel Studios I became more and more depressed until I struggled to get out of bed. I became more and more unhealthy and unhappy. Once I left I turned it all around within a year. Compare my 2023 and yesterday photos :)

Being consistently pushed to feel not good enough was the most creepling for me and my confidence. It took long time to finally believe in myself again, but I am still easily anxious about any feedback and feel like I need to defend and justify myself.

I'm sorry for the team to never get the chance to release Hytale the way they wanted. Hopefully, the folks that worked so hard on this game every day can find other opportunities to show off their skill and passion. Still a bit overwhelmed by the new though.

I would recommend everyone to check out this fantastic video Charlie made, celebrating a big milestone for the Hypixel Network - it's a work of art. Well done @NinjaCharlieT I'm also very happy for Hypixel who provides tons of unique experiences entertaining millions of players…
