is it good that every single games studio i still own is having all its staff leak comments like "we cant possibly make games under these conditions" in ten thousand articles

time spent leaking abyssmal working conditions is time not spent working on a game. plug the leak and all that effort will be automatically rerouted towards finishing up the work they have to do before we can fire them

I am just proud that as a person with no game development experience my ability to not make games at no cost makes me vastly less expensive than major studios.

i do have to say there's a part of me thats like. todd howard if you're about that life you gotta just leave. walk out that building and don't come back. you're todd howard

I can't help but wonder if that's the point. Microsoft doesn't want to make games because the executive class doesn't value art in the slightest. The fact Phil managed to make no money after mountains of acquisitions didn't help either.
