I think it’s worth noting that her thinking may have changed over the course of some time, it may have taken her a while to get here. A friend of mine only recently switched allegiances, he had been raised in a very conservative family and was a Republican and conservative for all his life. At the age of 31 he…

That sucks, sorry to hear it. Good song though.

There’s tons of tech fees if you’re a games developer actually, even if you’re using your own graphical engine like Telltale was.  There are fees for 3D modeling software, fees for sound, fees for dozens of different little things that people don’t notice (except when they’re missing).  One of the reasons why 3D are…

Most “late night” shows in the modern day are recorded at a regular hour and then edited.  Steven Colbert has even mentioned this in a few of his bits.

Sounds like some of them, not all 225 or so, but some of them are being brought in and paid for their time.  So, no awkward emails, though the awkward sense of “you have a job for like, 6 months unless we hire you permanently”.

There’s probably money to be made. Telltale already probably already paid for all the tech fees, I believe they already recorded and paid for all the voiceover work and already have a script, concept art, character models, etc.  The effort to put it out will probably be rather minimal (in video game development terms)…

He actually mentions it in the article as a game he quite likes from Ubisoft.  That quote about selling millions follows shortly after that.

Eh, no worries man.  I get it, it’s the internet. :)

Here’s the thing though: games don’t have to be made this way. Games like Hellblade, Metro: Last Light, the Witcher 3 and Vampyr show you can make “AAA” quality games that do something interesting, unique and fun that may even make you think a little bit and still make a profit without all of this bullshit; you just…

I’m certainly not saying you can’t make a “AAA” game with soul. What I’m saying is that game companies, like Ubisoft, EA or Activision are in no place to complain about the industry “not having a soul” when they created the very conditions for that to be considered an issue. It’s like taking a dump in the middle of…

Serge Hascoet talking about the video game industry missing a soul is laughably insane. Somebody from Ubisoft, a company best known for putting out soulless open world money grabs, is talking about the industry needing a soul? Get the fuck out of here. If the industry is missing a soul, it’s because companies like…

Video game “universities” or “schools” are generally pretty scummy, for profit institutions that don’t care if you get a good education. They promise students that they’ll get jobs in the industry, entice people with flashy commercials and then give them a virtually worthless certificate. There certainly are graduates…

Nah, there’s no hypocrisy here. There are some good arguments to be had in favor or against raising the corporate tax rate, that’s a good example of an issue in which the correct answer is debatable in which there is not a clear moral right or wrong and where the true answer is . The idea that other human beings have…

Sheriff Joe was too busy worrying about the color of inmates’ clothing.

So, this story sounds quaint and funny now by comparison to our fucked up current reality, but when I was a teenager I lived in Utah where country music is the dominant music on the airways (or was when I left, at least). You couldn’t escape country music in Utah, no matter what you were gonna hear quite a bit of it…

I’m pretty sure he doesn’t just use the n-word to make a point about Colonel Sanders either.

They didn’t bust down the doors and hold everyone at gunpoint. If you’re a company that falls under the FDA’s purview, you’re required to keep certain records and turn them over upon request. Basically a team, probably like four or five people, walked in and said “hey give us your documents as required by law”, the…

Why should Apple, or any company, be forced to allow a lunatic who threatens people use their service to broadcast his views? TV channels aren’t required to host opposing views, nor are radio stations, newspapers or magazines, why should websites be forced to do so?

The man’s ravings has resulted in violent assaults and heinous threats. He shouldn’t even be free to make his insane claims, he should be arrested for his role in this alone:

Like the unfair fees of telecom companies?
