PMG has now seen some of the messages which contributed to this decision being made.

There’s a sudden influx of people asking what Sweet Baby Inc *do*. So here I am, a Sweet Baby Inc employee, to tell you: we are writers & narrative designers! We write and help create stories, all with the enthusiastic consent of the studios who hire us!
Great thread about that here! \/\/

Yeah, hugely disappointed by Shesez here. Sweet Baby Inc was not "designed to consult and steer more inclusion" into games. They are brought on purposefully as a second opinion on narrative by large studios. They're script doctors. There's no pressure campaign to hire them.

Maybe a good day to unfollow Hard Drive if you had still been following them. It's no wonder they need AI to make jokes for them these days.

when checking out the opt-in discover feature on gumroad, I did some math and found that if a sale was made through discover, after gumroad and pay processing fees, taxes, and what I as my business can then pay myself, I'd take home something like $19.50 for a $50 avatar sale.

Reminder that these remakes are happening solely because labeling a thing as "live action" that's like 90% cg animation avoids having to pay union animators, and instead can use cheap un-unionized VFX animators
