After 11 incredible years I’ve decided to leave Meta in March. This was a difficult decision and I have nothing but deep appreciation for Mark and @boztank’s leadership, gratitude to the company, love for my coworkers, and excitement for our Horizon and VR roadmap.
I’m incredibly proud of multiple eras of my work at Meta. I helped to build the Oculus Content team, Meta’s first content production and dev rel organization, and producing a lot of highly reviewed and industry applauded titles. I’m also proud of building the Metaverse Creative Team, empowering Design and Art, and raising our quality bar.
Why now? And the answer is relatively boring: This seems like a good time. I am going to chase animals with a camera. You can follow the results on my Instagram instagram.com/jrubin/

In fond memory of @JLabbeII, early @Naughty_Dog (Crash, Jak) and all round incredible person. Naughty Dog wouldn't have been the same - or perhaps even made it through the hard times - without his trademark humor and love of "the game". I don't remember specifically what moved @asgavin and I when we met Joe by chance in a Virgin Megastore. But I thank fate for the meeting and for kicking us into action. My life was better for it, as were the other people he touched at Naughty Dog and the other teams he worked with @insomniacgames & @RAD_Studios.
I only had the honor of working with @DSVolition for a short - albeit tumultuous - amount of time. But it was enough to gain an incredible amount of respect for the team. #loss#Volition
I love Jak and Daxter like my children. I have no idea if this movie is happening. But I can tell you with certainty that am not working on the screenplay. gameishard.gg/news/the-jak-a…
