Watched The Finals Major league last night and it was just... lackluster. The event was thoughtful, all the fans seemed to enjoy it and the staff members really put their everything but the game was nothing more than average. When one team decided to stall in a PRO MATCH I was dumbfounded.

AI bros are all in with the infinite possibility of AI until I say "Honestly yeah, they exceeded us in pretty much everything, and with the structure it now has, it wouldn't be suprising if it completely replaced humanity, not as a tool but as a civilization"

my bro pick a side...

Youtube started to show a second ad after a non-skippable 15 seconds ad. It's these kind of pejorative business decisions that make people download adblocks...

The recent CSAT test(which, btw such an important event here in Korea that ALL PLANES GOING OVER KOREA STOPS during it) had some controversy with some of the questions.
Honestly after seeing it myself, I could see why... but more importantly how thoughtless the ppl in charge of the test were.

steam is apparently allowing "this game had AI in it that it didn't disclose" as a valid return statement, so if you or anyone you know actually paid $70 for slop, get that money back

Some of the more outrageous things I hear from so called English beginners are "Oh I just need to be good enough at English to the point where I can use it for work"

Just comes to show people just lack fundamental understanding of the concept of languages.

The biggest problem with idiots is that you can NEVER convince them in an intellectual level. Whatever wisdom or knowledge or logic you bring on the table is just another joke for them and frankly when the idiot refuses to comprehend basically all languages there's just no winning conditions

a good thread. it's great when games do well on launch, but the truth is many don't, & many continue to not do well after.

you can extrapolate this from steam review nums, but most of my games don't sell much. i'm lucky to have some games that sold enough for me to continue making ones that don't.
disappointing game launch grief.

very real among game devs, rarely public. i’m seeing one unfold publicly now, but don’t wanna draw attention to it. it’s sad. i want to say it’ll be ok, but in truth it won’t.

steams algorithm looks at the big thumbs up or thumbs down, not the actual words in your review. on my hands and knees begging people to stop doing this it literally only ever harms your favorite developers
