They're boiling down a complex set of character traits and work behaviors into one gimmicky pass-or-fail test. Where's the evidence that the interviewee's action with the cup actually correlates in any way with day-to-day work behavior? I'm guessing there is none, and that management simply likes how creative and…

You get all the stars.

Birds don't have boobs.

God, that would be amazing.

To interpret this image as racist, and to make the leap that the game is racist, I think requires a lot of assumptions and a lot of reading into things without any context to support your conclusions. You're obviously free to interpret anything in any way you like, and to be offended by whatever strikes you as…

Because if it turns out that he loves going to clubs where women hit on him, maybe he's got a little homophobia going on

60's TV Batmobile FOREVER.

Gun fetish meets tech fetish.

I haven't made a game, but I know people who have, and I've worked in the games industry. Based on what i've seen? It depends on the focus of your game, but in general I'd say start small, and hire/collaborate with a really good programmer. Programmers are the heart of small projects...they're the ones who actually…

If Olin was a programmer or an artist or some other random, behind-the-scenes employee, then I'd be inclined to defend him. I don't agree with him at all, but in that case I don't think his tweet would be just grounds for termination.

He also picked a bizarre case on which to take a stand. Sterling will live the rest of his life rich, comfortable and powerful, no matter how racist or hated by the general public he is. He doesn't need any help, especially not from random strangers on twitter.

Go read the first amendment again, and then explain which part of it this situation violates.

His job was PR. If he does something that hinders his ability to maintain good PR for Turtle Rock, then it seems perfectly justifiable for them to fire him, as he can no longer perform the duty for which he was hired.

Yeah, I did think about that. I wouldn't be surprised if that is, in fact, the official and actual answer. The video above calls out the part where you get in the elevator in Earthen Peak and inexplicably end up in Iron Keep's lava-covered landscape. When I went through that part, I thought maybe that's just the weird…

Yeah, I agree with pretty much all of this. I like DS2, I'm having fun playing it, but it's disappointing in a variety of ways compared to DS1.

The world design is a particularly big one, for me. One of the coolest things about DS1 was how it all felt like one, big, epic continuous world. It blew my mind the first…

I agree, these guys are rad. They capture the essence of the characters pretty well, without even any plot or dialogue. I'd watch a movie like this.

Haha, nice! I had pretty much the same reaction. Check out Virtual Light after you're done with the Sprawl Trilogy, if you haven't already read it.

Unless anyone was actually, directly, physically affected and inconvenienced on race day, this is purely a matter for race security, to figure out better ways to stop it from happening in the future. And track 'em down and fine 'em or something, sure. But it hardly calls for a public witch hunt.

Man, I can't believe no one ever thought of a sexy, black magic witch in a skimpy dress before! And calling her "Siren" because, like, she's sexy so she's alluring. Like mythical sirens. But also evil. Get it???

She does have a cool bird hat. Does that count?
