At 52 and Covid three times, I can’t tell if it’s age or the Covid that has ruined my sense of taste, has made me extra tired, prevents me from remembering names of even people I know well, and has given me lots of new body aches. It’s like truth or dare for old people. Covid or age?

Yeah making a boxing game left us a LOT of processing not spent on other characters or environments. Combined with photogrammetry the environments were drop dead simple but looked amazing with the textures.

Wasn’t ready right at launch. I think it was 6 weeks later? We finaled in early Jan and released in Feb. I remember because we always finaled around my bday. It was a month or so after that before anything else came out.

Fight Night Round 3, which I did AI, gameplay, and procedural facial animations for, was either the first post launch title or one of the first. It was a really fun time

If ya ever are looking for beta readers I’d love to do it. Book sounds super interesting, even having lived through the time period you discuss as a game developer.

My friends and I all agree they need to bring back SGU!! “15 years later”. More lost than ever, all comms with Earth gone, some returning faces, others dead and gone, maybe some new humans found on other planets, or even aliens. It writes itself!

Normally I agree with you but just because fascism isn’t where you are yet doesn’t mean we aren’t there. It just means the conversion to everywhere is still in progress Ask folks in Chicago how they feel, or American citizens sent to gulags over sea.
