Shit is subjective. As long as you love your own shit or the process of it, you are good.

The funny thing is, I’ve heard about quite a few Indie studios that are just as bad. They do the very same thing we condemn AAA for - crunch, micromanaging and even harrasment.
I was very surprised to hear the person who lead the development on monument valley turned out to be a big dick to his employees.
So, I can totally understand the cultural success thing. Though I’d like to believe that we are better than the corporate management suite, I have to remind myself that anyone can be a dick. You can be a progressive left leaning animal lover and still be a horrible parent. This was a hard lesson for me.
I have worked only in the indie/AA sphere, and my experience here hasn’t been all that great either. But, I always believed the problem was in the work culture of my country itself, and that I would probably find it better to work with those outside my country. No, people are the same everywhere, just of different flavours.
Though I’d still prefer to work with like minded people vs those believe capital over everything else.

At the risk of being a negetive nancy, they haven’t done this with crew 1. So that game is still dead. This might just be a perfunctory action to quell support for the movement. They haven’t made any real promises to have EOL plans for all their games.(As far as I’ve seen)

If they want some good will, they should make mod tools for the game.(Og one)

Also, african countries start paying spain, italy and Greece to keep the migrants there.

Brazil is super diverse to be fair. And it’s one the largest countries on the planet.
I like what Gusteau from ratatouille has to say about this - “Anyone can be a facist, but only the stupidest can be great at it”
Also Anton’s “Not everyone can become a great facist, but a great facist can come from anywhere”

It’d be hilarious to see a reverse migration.

Africa is beautiful, the only issue is safety.
Countries like namibia/botswana probably have less of these issues as well.

Yeah, but who doesn’t have fascists? At least they’re prosecuting theirs. Bolsonaro can’t stand for elections no more.
So, at least they’re back to the status quo, where they destroy the planet slowly.

Brazil is good. Nice food, people and forests.

No, please don’t sign if you are American. That can harm the petition with false signatures.
This is strictly ONLY for European union citizens!

Hijacking.
Are you European? Do you like games?
Do you want to own games again? and not just “License” them? Then please join the Stop destroying Videogames Initiative.
Initiative - citizens-initiative.europa.eu/…/000007_en
It’s an initiative to get the European parliament to discuss the matter all together, and Iirc, it already has some members that support it. (So It’s not just any ordinary petition that will go nowhere.)
We have already collected 42% of the 1 million signatures from European citizens required. But the deadline is June 2025 and if we don’t get enough signatures by then, it won’t be looked at by the European commission. So to at least get the matter to be discussed, please sign!
(ONLY FOR European Union citizens! No Brits! there’s another initiative for the UK.)

- Comment on The Outer Worlds 2: 11 Minutes of Exclusive Gameplay – IGN First 4 weeks ago:
Same. It was my games festival. Though it was too corporatey, it was the one delightful part of the year where I could get excited about the most insignificant and significant announcements. And how could you forget the vague, CGI trailers that always overpromised.
The hype was real.
Why don’t gamescon or gamesaward feel this way?
- Comment on PirateSoftware's Take On $80 Games 4 weeks ago:
It’s not some fucking witch hunt. He’s a pretentious asshole, who thinks he is better than everyone else.
And yes people can have their own opinions, but he misrepresented the goals of the petition on purpose. Then he refused to debate it with someone (who knows what the petition was actually about) on live when called out.
He has no balls or mana.
- Comment on PirateSoftware's Take On $80 Games 4 weeks ago:
Fuck pirate software, he derailed the conversation of stopkillinggames with his disingenuous straw man arguments.
He’s one of the most pretentious fucks I’ve seen.

That was a parody of minority report. You should check it out if you haven’t.
Also if you are into anime, you should check out psychopass which covers a similar theme.
