ah, the link is borked. Anyway, it’s a very good read if you have the time (and Foone knows what they are talking about).

Here’s a crazy idea:

Let your developers work at a reasonable pace and set your release windows to actual, realistic time-lines in the first place and then you don’t have to push shit back a million times because your project managers can’t seem to figure out how time works. Tell marketing to shut the fuck up and not…

That’s the problem. It is interesting how some Americans think that they have the right to tell others how to express themselves and that their take or view of anything is the only way the rest of the world, which includes 195 countries, should see things. This attitude reeks of arrogance. 

I would rather see an original IP. Suikoden has a lot of good elements to it, but I don’t think we necessarily need another Suikoden game. I just want to see more creativity in the industry rather than an endless chain of sequels.

Trace Memory (same studio) is great too, very underrated title

I came here to say that I really hate the whole “Games as a service” thing, because it’s a blatant lie on the part of the companies. No matter what, they will always treat their products as products, and more than that as exploitable products, because they can’t do anything else. MMOs, which have the best case for…

The seats recline because they were designed that way in an era where you had more than 8 inches between the front of your seat and the back of the one in front. Like the article points out, people are reluctant to lose something they once had, so the reclining chair stayed, while the legroom went to make room for…
