Jesto posted:I literally don't get why they don't just make or fund their own videogames instead of trying to change everyone else's videogames. If their vision for the future of games is correct then surely they'll be profitable. Other developers will follow by example if the outcome is good. Because it's a subculture that's been propped up with self-congratulatory back-patting between mutual friends who have managed to game() their way into the scene despite a critical lack of any kind of vision, foresight, technical aptitude, self-management, resources, critical thinking, design theory, planning, development skills, basic social skills, professional integrity, life skills, or emotional maturity. This whole poo poo leads to some kind of anti-gaming guerrilla development philosophy that meets halfway between Werner Herzog's fever dreams and Dogme 95 if the proponents stuck to their principles rigidly and completely failed to make sense of the industry. They don't want to make games, they want to make "anti-games" so they can, in one fell stroke, challenge every established assumption about games. And in a lot of ways, this is an important thing to do. You see games like To The Moon, Papers Please, and so on making waves in small ways by merging story and gameplay to tell stories that aren't typical in the industry. But poo poo like Depression Quest or other low effort games are just that: low-effort. They're crass attempts to exploit a market for personal gain by delivering lovely products backed by an institution so in love with its own perceived legitimacy. If you inject this crap into the market and use the PR clout (which is manufactured), it can seem pretty easy to twist the narrative of where gaming is headed without being correct nor relevant. Oops, that was a serious post. let me try again i'm gay

reavor posted:seems that's kind of what started this whole thing. some indie game developers/journalists recieved (perhaps partly unfounded) criticism regarding their contacts/dealings with other developers/journalists and blocking of game-funding initiatives, and they responded by starting a crusade against their attackers, then expanding it to the gaming community as a whole. If you reframe the argument and go on the offensive, people will eventually forget you're a lazy do-nothing piece of poo poo who can't code, draw, compose, plan, organize, or develop anything of value that any human would ever want to spend money on.

Al Borland posted:wow hes pretty autistic. He rattles off his particular brand of humor with speed and precision that would make even the most spergy of 11 year olds wet with envy. When and why did he decide to abort the thin veneer of his credibility by showing his busted half torched bald face to the public for the shame of our glorious internet nation?

Maxwell Adams posted:Not only that, they actually gave a factual account of how Zoe and Maya triggered a DDOS attack against TFYC. Every other article about TFYC so far has danced around that subject. Did Wolf ever expand on what he said, or was he shouted into obscurity by the Fish?
