Yeah, the notion that we’d somehow turn a corner and figure our shit out in a century or two is wildly naive (sorry to burst your bubble, but Star Trek isn’t happening). Given the speed of evolution, that’s nowhere near enough time for humanity to outgrow the detrimental base instincts that are now actively harming…

And that frugality will, naturally, apply to himself, right? Right???

On the contrary — it’s not that games prices are too low, it’s that executive pay bloat is too high. And Mr Capcom president, there’s an ‘easy’ fix...fire your stupid ***, especially after throwing out such an idiotic take on a situation *YOU* had a hand in creating in the first place.

The board can overrule the CEO’s decisions. They can also fire him. The company president can overrule or fire the CEO. None of that happened. Because they all wanted the same thing. And firing the CEO would change nothing about that or what Unity’s leadership wants to do with Unity or the developers who use it. It’s…

The CEO is just the tip of the iceberg of all the people who need to go. Removing Ricc the Dick would barely make a dent in the decision process that created this mess.

Nobody cares at this point. Nothing short of walking back Unity’s *ENTIRE* upper management — execs, board of directors, etc — will undo the damage. It’s their fault. They thought it was a good idea. Which means the people responsible for this fiasco are still around, still in a position to make another equally stupid…

Take all of this with a grain of salt (a lot of them). Lots of ‘projects’ are considered but never get off the drawing board, and these timelines are nothing more than management’s way of projecting budgets and breakdowns. Chances are these are just aspirational plans and ideas for where to direct the studio’s…

The classic non-apology — she’s not sorry she’s a pathetic, disgusting, stupid person. She’s sorry she got *CAUGHT* being a pathetic, disgusting, stupid person. 

“Well, fuck off then...” is the *ONLY* correct response to bigots.

No, one can’t make that argument. Because the US military is 100% funded *NOT* by private companies or corporations but by the US government, ie its citizens. And your other examples, or rather those you try refute? They also happen to be ones most directly under attack by capitalists. USPS? It was one of the…

#1 Yes, in fact you can. America and other capitalist nations have been actively sabotaging and attacking communist and socialist countries for over a century. Just because there aren’t tanks rolling down streets and squads of soldiers trading bullets, doesn’t mean there isn’t a war happening. The Cold War *WAS*…

Find an alternative that capitalists haven’t actively, aggressively, and *VIOLENTLY* put down whenever and wherever it emerges? Don’t bother searching. It’s a trick, because there aren’t any. Capitalists kill by the thousands (at times, daily) to keep capitalism running so they can stay on top and keep everyone else…

This is Capitalism in action. There’s a demand and a market to supply. So businesses *WILL* adapt to exploit it for profit. Yes, it’s entirely artificially created, but capitalism doesn’t care about any of that. Only profit. If there’s profit to make, that profit must be made. Hell, Capitalism will have businesses cut…

There was. When Unity moved to the subscription model going forward, a lot of people, me included, pointed out that Epic is shifting Unreal in the exact opposite direction. It’s completely free to use now, and Epic only assess any sort of monetary fees when your game sells (and has multiple tiers based on unit sales,…

Yes, but it’s still a pig.

16 times nothin’ is, let me do the math — nothin’, carry the nothin’...

Oblivions, Skyrim, Fallout 3, Fallout 4, etc — they’re all solid evidence that Bethesda either has no UI/UX developer on staff, or the ones that they have are genuinely terrible at the job. But considering how low the bar is for ‘acceptable’ UI/UX work across software development, that’s not really saying anything —…

“Just because it’s not doing what you want doesn’t mean it isn’t working.”

“It’s hard to get a man to understand something when his paycheck depends on him not understanding it.”

Easily the creakiest, jankiest engine still actively being developed on by a major studio. For better and worse, because it’s honestly both.
