I can’t think of many more ultraliberal things than employing progressive arguments (critiques of auteur theory) to make reactionary, anti-worker points (workers are inessential and easily replaced)

Baiting Kurvitz and Hindpere into replying to this poo poo would be a great way to paint them as "difficult to work with". Not having a twitter account proves to be one of the better life choices you could make, yet again.

Going by the quote tweets ZA/UM has a lot of either haters or super fans in Spanish speaking countries What the hell is auteur theory anyway, sounds like something eggheads made up to explain why Kojima keeps getting away with everything. Now it's become associated with this stuff in my head. NO!

I don't think a single person on Twitter or this thread has any goddamn idea what auteur theory is. Truffaut came up with it while he was at Cahiers basing it on Bazins previous thinking on criticism and then it got popularized by Serris on the US couple years later. Truffaut original essay is something like " a certain tendency in French cinema" or something to that effecct

Now it's become associated with this stuff in my head. NO! Auteur Theory is a film (originally) theory that views the director as the paramount creative behind a film, more so than writers, actors, producers, etc. The director is the author (auteur) of the movie and it’s his singular vision. This idea came about because of directors with a strong and distinctive style with recurring themes and references, like Hitchcock. This has been extended to other media, like games.

Yeah, they're using it to make the argument of "the intellectual property is more important than the people who made it!" and that is making me deeply uncomfortable. Seeing what are essentially Disney corp talking points but painted to look like leftist ideology is one of the most evil things I've seen in the indie dev scene

Epic High Five posted:Going by the quote tweets ZA/UM has a lot of either haters or super fans in Spanish speaking countries who gets the "credit" as the creative force behind a work is kind of a matter of social convention OP. if you think of music, classical music gets "credited" to the composer, while most popular music gets credited to the performers (and for capital-p Pop music, the vocalist). or electronic music where most of it gets credited to the producer/dj except hip-hop which tends to go to the MC. even though a ton of people were involved in creating these things, we generally like viewing art as the product of a specific creative mind (or a small group) because that's just kind of what our conception of art is. there's no law anywhere that says we need to view films by centering film directors but it ends up being a useful way to look at things.

There's a reason it comes from film criticism and a reason I posted the name of the essay. http://www.newwavefilm.com/about/a-certain-tendency-of-french-cinema-truffaut.shtml I'll even post a translation

It somehow makes a lot of sense to me that a studio could only produce one game as weird, new, and good as Disco Elysium before collapsing in on itself, and I never really had any hopes for them to make a worthwhile followup or different game so I guess I'll just initiate a new playthrough like I've been meaning to

Just found out the news  Hoping for the best and that they can retain their IP and world. If I had to never get another Disco game but Kurvitz et al got their IP back I'd be more than happy with that resolution.It seems like a pretty wild stunt tbh, but hey, that's capitalism for ya.
