Sometimes I think about getting back into Destiny 2, but the urge is never strong enough than the burnout I feel from the loot treadmill.

Pretty sure it’s Pig gets roasted.

I got a 30$ Yi cam on Amazon and have used footage twice - for other victims. Twice I witnessed accidents and sent footage to all parties involved. On both occasions the people at fault wanted me to fuck off. One guy threatened me after I offered the footage to the lady who was seemingly in the right. I pulled over as…

So in addition to the stop sign infraction the cop is on the hook for unlawful arrest and illegal imprisonment.

Something something bad apples something...

Not going to lie, adding female knights to a medieval combat games seems A LOT closer to adding an eastern sword style than a Gundam in your analogy.... 

Others are citing how strange it is for players to be complaining that women might be added to a game where frying pans do more damage than pitchforks.

QA tester here — I’ve dealt with being contracted through Volt before, as well as directly through the company I was working for. This is all worse than anything I had to deal with, but ultimately the same sentiment was always true. QA testers were generally secondary, were discouraged from speaking to other…

A similar thing happened to me while testing a series of Kinect games that I won't name here because they were godawful and forgotten at this point. QA on Kinect games was exactly as ridiculous as you could imagine and also a lot of physical, hard labor that the other testers and I were not informed of before the…

What?!?! Activision treating one of it’s most valuable assets like completely disposable and replaceable shit...you don’t say...

I wish I could be shocked and/or surprised by any of this, I really do...but it’s Activision.

Activision being shitbirds is as constant as death and taxes.

Bears repeating.

This is why you unionize. Except we won’t fucking do it because as Americans we’re apparently broken at such a fundamental level we think we deserve this treatment to get ahead. And who told you that...?

Y'all motherfuckers need unions

I’ve been a programmer for years, a lead programmer for 1.5 years, and now a game designer for 1.5 years. It never ceases to amaze me how poorly QA are treated. :(

Is it because it’s mostly a “pew pew” console.

No corporations care about you.  No corporations are your friends.
