Huh ha hooh sonic boom!

Most of these games are aboit doing horrible things to women...so yea your defense fails. Go back to start do not collect $200.

Except for the whole part where they list super violent games that were banned for being super violent.

They sucked when they made Dragonball and Avatar: The Last Airbender movies, and still insist so hard on sucking.

There is nothing strange about cyborgs having a race, they are modeled after real humans and made to look mostly life-like (if we didn’t already know Motoko was a cyborg it would be hard to tell she is in the anime TV or movies), so naturally cyborgs made in Japan would mostly look like Japanese people (and cyborgs in…

People surviving off less doesn’t mean it’s a good salary.

“making games is not a job—it’s an art.”

That is 100% accurate and true.

Hey, look at this list of other things that are an art:
Filmmaking.
Composing Music.
Sculpture.
Architecture.
Woodworking.
Electrical Engineering.
Fashion Design.
Landscaping.
Journalism.
Teaching, in any capacity.

All those things are an art, and they’re…

Let me be pretty clear on this fucking subject.

53k a year as a programmer is garbage. Maybe as a starting salary in a cheap area, but the average is more like 75k.

Yeah, fuck those guys trying to get word out about what a fair wage is!

Yeah sure everyone can just make their own game. Everyone has the entrepreneurial skills, not to mention financial security to leave their job and start their own business with no guarantee their game will actually succeed and be able to provide for themselves and their family. It’s easy to leave your job, I wonder…

No, he isn’t right. The answer isn’t to just make a game because you are being treated like garbage. Many of these people support families and that isn’t an option. The industry needs to change. Work conditions should be improved. They can start by treating people like people.

Might be a livable wage if you live alone, but forget about having a family.

That $53k per year where most game developer jobs exist is not a living wage. It’s not even a surviving wage. If you made that in North Dakota it would be fine. But not in a top 25 metro area.

what an asshole.

Why would you be upset about spending a large portion of the one and only life you ever get working on someone else’s vision to make someone else some money and then not get compensated for it fairly?

He’s like one of those old war veterans who’ve convinced themselves that they had a great time trying not to get shot or blown up because it’s easier than carrying around a history of trauma.
