Why don’t you share what games you’ve worked on so we can all decide whether to give a shit about your opinion
Comment on We Might Be About To Lose A Powerful Force In The World Of Video Game Preservation
pulido@lemmings.world 4 days agoI know this is going to sound weird, but if you didn’t work on a game I care about or worse, worked on games that I think are bad, then I will not take your development experiences seriously.
I’m not saying they didn’t happen, just that I would be foolish to value a process that produces products I don’t like.
I enjoy plenty of games that were made by fully-remote teams, such as Mordhau. Did you work on anything like that?

Lol, it’s not about me vs. him.
He’s the one who said remote couldn’t work. I said it could and gave an example of a game I like that was made by a fully-remote team.
If the development experience that he is defending didn’t yield any products that are as good as something that was made remotely, why should I take him seriously?

They were just pointing out the benefits of in office work for the industry (compared with benefits of remote no less), and you came out swinging, your example dripping with opinion and hostility.
It was entirely unnecessary and rude.

I wasn’t trying to say you can’t do remote development what I was trying to say was it’s not a good way for the whole industry. That and pointing out drawbacks of full remote.

This is the weirdest take I’ve read in a while… Thinking designers doesn’t create anything is just so wrong… And I’m not just talking about creating designs but also creating prototypes using components and e.g. unreal blueprints… Let’s not forget about taking the time to properly tweak values and all that…
I’m not going to share what games I’ve worked on as I like to have at least a faint divide between my online persona and real life one.
