Welcome to the club of, literally, the billions of people who came before you

No. I’ve never even heard of that game design studio, and I’m pretty sure that if I haven’t heard of a game design studio, they’re not “big enough to be too corporate”.

I was simply commenting on a general practice during game development. A practice which revolves around a profit motive, not around the size of whatever corporation may be developing the game. I have, in my own past, as an independent game developer, encountered such difficult development, decision decisions, as how much of which budget to cut.

So, I’m not simply speaking out of general bullshit. I’m actually speaking from experience.

Do you have any other questions?

As game development budgets get cut, the first ones to go are the designers. It’s much easier to sell a game which doesn’t look great but still works than a game than looks great, but doesn’t work right. And the corporate assholes who are in charge of these game design budgets care only about one thing: sales. They couldn’t give a flying fuck if you enjoy the game, just that you bought it.

because every website got bought out by a major corporation which publicly executes its employees, every hour, on the hour, if their profit line stops going up

PHP was also originally developed on the NeXT cube

When I grew up, one of my mother’s favorite pieces of art was this image. She had an official print of it. It was beautiful.

This is exactly what is so awesome and beautiful about independent software development.

because the GOP is the “fa” in “Antifa”

You know, I find it quite annoying that hackers will choose a target like Steam rather than a force that’s actually evil in this world. Like, put your skills to good use at least…

I went to a fancy boarding school growing up. The food was average. It was made by a staff for almost 200 kids, so they didn’t really seem to go out of their way to make it special except for around the holidays.

Most kids kept snacks back in the room because they didn’t like the food.

Gambled and lost? Awww

It’s nice to know he’s a pathological liar right off the bat

I was thinking exactly this: it’s a sanitation issue, and I’m pretty sure that any store that still had them got rid of them during Covid.

Personally, I refused to use them. I’ve worked in both service and hospitality, and I know how gross people are, even when they don’t mean to be.
