Releasing this and Persona 3 Reload in LESS than a year blows my mind. It's also criminal cause I wish I had THAT much time. Keep cooking, Atlus.

Resume/portfolio thoughts from a hiring manager that spent this week reviewing [redacted] number of applications: For visual roles (art, graphic design, UI) your resume should have a high-visibility link to your online portfolio— I look at portfolios first, then resumes 1/
Hom am I JUST NOW learning about Quadrilateral Cowboy!? How have I slept on this for *8* DANG YEARS!?! youtube.com/watch?v=S_IVvh…
