<p><strong>tl;dr:</strong> Game Design &amp; Development split into two close reasons, and we'll be revising all our close reasons soon since we're on the new version of custom close reasons.</p> <p>A few updates regarding our Custom Off-Topic Close reasons</p> <ol> <li><strong>Fifth Custom Reason:</strong> Thanks to wonderful the Hoid, we now have a fifth off-topic close reason available to us, as per <a href="https://gaming.meta.stackexchange.com/questions/17407/do-we-need-a-fifth-custom-off-topic-close-reason">this meta</a>.</li> <li><strong>Game Design &amp; Development Close Reason Split:</strong> We have split the Game Design &amp; Development close reason into two separate reasons, as per <a href="https://gaming.meta.stackexchange.com/questions/17404/can-we-re-word-the-developer-intent-close-reason-to-be-specifically-about-the-wh">this meta</a>. The new close reasons are:</li> </ol> <p><strong>Game Dev close reason:</strong></p> <blockquote> <p>Questions about <strong>Game Design and Development</strong> are off topic. You might want to ask over at <a href="https://gamedev.stackexchange.com/">Game Development SE</a>, but be sure to read <a href="https://gamedev.stackexchange.com/help/on-topic">their FAQ</a>.</p> </blockquote> <p><strong>&quot;Developer intent&quot; close reason revised to &quot;game design choices&quot;:</strong></p> <blockquote> <p><strong>Speculative questions</strong> about why developers chose to make specific <strong>game design choices</strong> are off-topic.</p> </blockquote> <ol start="3"> <li><strong>New Custom Off-Topic Close Reason Structure:</strong> We've been upgraded to the newer, fancier, and improved version of custom off-topic close reasons. This gives us much greater control over what is displayed to users when a question is closed, which makes it clearer to everyone why a question was closed and when a certain close reason applies. We will be revising all five of our close reasons to follow the new format, and will be making a meta for each close reason soon. The mod team is still figuring out the best process for handling this (there's a lot more to the new close reasons compared to the old ones), so we have no further details to provide right now.</li> </ol> <p>Also, you'll likely notice that the two new close reasons look different than the other close reasons (see below image). This is because they were built using the new close reason format, but without using all the extra features yet.</p> <p><a href="https://i.sstatic.net/E7PpLKZP.png" rel="nofollow noreferrer"><img src="https://i.sstatic.net/E7PpLKZP.png" alt="close reasons" /></a></p>
