If you really cared about The Room you'll probably like the movie that's about the abouting of The Room. Also not mandatory, just a fine tradition with some amusing history behind it.

The Disaster Artist is a fine film even if you've never seen The Room. My husband really liked it, and he hadn't seen a second of The Room going in. I feel like "Five Olisar rings" was a missed trick, but "Five Derek blogs" was pretty sweet. This has nothing to do with anything, but my husband has also never seen a Star War. When I tell you he is a computer scientist in his fifties, who has spent his entire life in  , you may get an idea of how weird that is.

Just had a couple emails back and forth with an old friend who is in the LA office on this nightmare, and he essentially said that (for him personally) he is just there to pull a steady paycheck, and that he and a couple other devs are using CIG to pay the bills while they work during off times to develop their mobile game. He said that much of the “worker level people” in the company are using this as a “getting paid to work on their demo reels” type of gig, and nothing more, because the passion and morale are gone, and no one ever gets heard for their cool ideas, because management takes their ideas and presents them as their own to upper management. Also dropped a little tidbit, that a couple of the trolls on Reddit (and maybe here, but he won’t elaborate) are actively trolling the community out of spite because they hate the company (and it’s LT) and need to burn off steam. I believe I know one of them in here, but he posts very infrequently, so I can’t pin him down yet. Take it for what it’s worth

Jobbo_Fett posted:How much is it worth compared to a Banu Merchantman? We don't know specifics like that as you well know. But his unsourced rumors are worth nothing. I will counter with my own. I've talked to many employees of CIG over the last couple years (and very recently). All have a very positive and outgoing view of the project and the opportunities there to do something special. The only negative thing I've ever heard out of them is that they feel parts of community are far too impatient with the pace of normal game development. It can be stressful if they are public facing.

I heard a rumor that if Ben doesn't appear on CIG's show anymore, it's because he is at a point when even you place it really far from the camera and zoom out, he still take the whole screen.
