intensely_human,

IP stands for “intellectual property” as far as I know, and copyright is one form of that

intensely_human,

I mean if the way you get there is by modifying the thing, then it’s a mod.

Modding is to speciation as counterfitting is to convergent evolution.

intensely_human,

It’s his piercing eyes

intensely_human,

No, art is not for thinking. Books are for thinking. Art is for experiencing.

intensely_human,

No, it’s not. The prerequisite to creating valuable art is ability, not some stance toward intellectualizing visceral media.

intensely_human,

One of my favorite lines ever

intensely_human,

Sure yeah, thinking afterward is great. Just like you can think about sex, music, food, etc.

Just don’t stand there thinking “What am I supposed to be thinking about with this one?”

If an artist’s message is so small it can be put into words, they should just tack a notecard to the wall.

I have a level that is a tribute to The Stanley Parable in my game, here is my progress. Any feedback? (lemmy.world) angielski

My game is called Do Not Press The Button (To Delete The Multiverse) and in it I have a multiverse called A Universe Where This Game Was Made By People With Actual talent and it’s a “What If” the Crow Crows Crows guy made my game. I think it’s turning out good. What do you think? Here is my Steam Page

intensely_human,

Put some floating shelves above the cabinets to break up that vertical space. You can put some knick knacks up there.

intensely_human,

Right, because a healthy business consists of a sort of zombie corpse leech, not a symbiosis.

The little diner down the street where everyone has a good time every day? That’s not a healthy business.

It is very important that we twist the definition of every word to ensure people understand how bad capitalism is. Language and the ability to think is secondary to the great Revolution Take 25!

intensely_human,

If I ever run a successful company, I am never taking it public, and I hope that I will never accept a sum of money that more than doubles our assets.

I’ve worked in the startup world and seen too many companies fail in all but name when they receive investment money. It really sucks the soul out of a company.

intensely_human,

Yup, that’s what qyron is presupposing with his argument. Read it again if you misunderstood.

intensely_human,

Yeah but the humility in their actions shows they did.

intensely_human,

Maybe you’ll be teaching them that changing course brings no relief from punishment

intensely_human,

That’s Pac Man 2024

intensely_human,

Honestly “Microsoft” would have been a perfect brand name for a line of VR gear, if they hadn’t jumped the gun and applied it to software back in the day.

intensely_human,

Yes but this comment is generic to the game industry overall, and has been made thousands of times with slightly different wording. I’d rather use this thread to celebrate the rare event of a company admitting a mistake and actually making customers whole.

intensely_human,

That’s not a con, that’s someone perfecting their art.

intensely_human,

On controller, I usually set my horizontal sensitivity higher than vertical. There’s only 180 degrees of up and down but 360 degrees of left and right to navigate in the world.

intensely_human,

As long as your character is oriented in a vertical way, there’s twice as much horizontal breadth to cover as vertical.

In other words, you can turn in a full circle but you can’t rotate up or down in a full circle.

intensely_human,

An airplane’s windows don’t allow looking up or down, if we’re taking cockpits without canopies.

intensely_human,

Nah man. Tipping has its place and it’s not to take the place of regular payment for goods. Developer makes a product, I’ll buy it like a product.

Expanding the scope of tipping is not good.

intensely_human,

Pretty fucking authoritarian for a company that uses the OPA’s split circle as its logo

intensely_human,

Or they’re gonna make video games that are suspiciously like piloting drones

intensely_human,

Emulation is probably a better strategy than hardware compatibility, since future machines will have the chops to emulate current machines.

intensely_human,

Aaaaand we’re back to trackballs

intensely_human,

“Any bugs we’re gonna have to fix after release?”

“Well, the New Game feature doesn’t work”

“But people can still look at the menu, right?”

“I mean yeah except for New Game the menu’s all there”

“Go ahead and ship it then”

intensely_human,

Device was released May 21, 2019. So about five years of use, assuming someone bought one on release day.

Meh.

intensely_human,

So they made you join the army?

intensely_human,

It’ll be five years old this may. It’s four, going in five.

intensely_human,

Why assume that’s what I was saying?

intensely_human,

Or I would express that I’m on the fence between thinking the thing lasted long enough to be worth it, and thinking it wasn’t.

intensely_human,

Oh yeah I’m sure the lack of a profit motive would just make games amazing 🙄

intensely_human,

So just don’t take your video game company public.

One thing Ayn Rand’s characters were definitely too selfish to do was allow a committee to take over their work.

intensely_human,

The perception of profit is a more powerful force than actual profit.

Markets select for profit by simply trimming away the things that don’t make profit.

Boards of directors select for the perception of profit by firing CEOs who don’t provide them with that perception.

These systems are both operating. The companies that don’t make a profit will still die. It’s just that under this system, a company that’s on track to making profit can be redirected by a Board onto a path where they aren’t, because of that second mechanism.

intensely_human,

Profit, selling games, and maximizing value for shareholders are all fully correlated, to the point of being the same thing at different stages of the process.

Modern capitalism moves away from all three by focusing instead on current-quarter profit.

intensely_human,

It’s like trying to win a rally by removing the brakes from the rally car.

intensely_human,

Exactly

intensely_human,

And people never spend money on things based on how good they are /s

intensely_human,

Nope. Thank god there’s a free market and therefore I have options.

intensely_human,

Hell yes. Any time I play over watch I think “this reminds me of a marvel movie battle scene”

intensely_human,

Any good Marvel game should definitely have heavily destructible environments.

And they need to model different kinds of destruction too, from explosions to melting to being warped or having portions teleported away.

intensely_human,

Sure. And someone who gets worked up over these predictions is foolish.

intensely_human,

What’s the best dopamine rush you’ve ever gotten from hating on something? How long did it last? When you looked back on it the next day, was it a fond memory for those two minutes?

intensely_human,

Why should you expect the game … at all?

How is any expectation whatsoever helpful?

There’s a predictive model you can build and run in your brain. The result of running this model will be feelings of disgust, frustration, anger.

Do you choose to run this mental program? If so, why?

intensely_human,

This is a solved problem in the comic book digital media universe: anyone with insufficient powers is given a robot suit to bring them up to par.

Batman … in a robot suit. Spider man … in a robot suit. The Punisher … in a robot suit. Tony Stark … in a robot suit.

intensely_human,

Just like the consulting company’s employees called for harassment of the list’s creator.

intensely_human,

If only the devs had put effort into making driving not suck, it would be an amazing game.

intensely_human,

Where did you hear about this review bombing?
