Do you know if he made targeted derogatory comments about other staff? If not their hands may have legitimately been tied, at least in regards to termination. (Even if that was the case, management still should have sat him down and told him to stop being weird at work though).

Here’s mine btw, it’s a war game, not a ttrpg (although I’ve seen people adapt the rules into one). It’s the only rulebook I’ve come across so far that openly encourages smashing power gamers’ hands with a hammer.

The unfortunate reality is most consumers are disengaged from how the sausage is made- if the slop is presentable enough they will eat. I think RAM prices and data centers slurping up water are gonna be our best talking points going forwards because they affect many more people directly.

Claiming HOI4 as a root cause for that is wild. Did they just miss the decades worth of pop-history books that exist solely to glaze the panther?

I suppose a more succinct way of putting it would be “if you can’t count the number of contributors on your hands anymore you need a dedicated producer”

I think this sheen of “seriousness” will help the modding scene immensely, one of the big issues I see ambitious fan projects struggle with is a failure to weed out “idea guys” who talk a big game but flake when they realize they’ll have to do actual work.

My hope is that the small indie teams making wildly successful games that blow up on twitch today will grow into AA and maybe even AAA studios ten to fifteen years from now. Never forget, blizzard entertainment began as a room of unwashed 20-somethings and an idea.

Obviously this is much easier said than done as it means forgoing investor capital, but stuff like outersloth has shown there IS a path forward outside the clutches of Wall Street.

Depends on how strict the criteria are. If we’re talking a loose “how many times can we re-release this game” I don’t think anything comes close to the five todd-illion different variations of Skyrim.
