Just do your best.

He has also praised Hitler on social media.
Fucking what???
I thought this about myself and then I watch some old shit like Seven Samurai and I am sitting up straight eyes wide taking it all in.
But yeah, there’s no law against just not liking any of it.
1 screen it, or try to be ok missing things.
First time with one of these? They are pretty cool, yeah
Is this a Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell reference? https://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Jonathan_Strange_and_Mr._Norrell
This is the most judgey comma I’ve seen in a while. Very well done
Pretty accurate to the story, now that I actually read it.
Haha yeah, I remember we disagreed on something, but now I can’t remember what. Can’t have been too fundamental, anyway – see you around!
I think most people see these illustrations online these days
That sounds very healthy.
Oh hey sugar_in_your_tea - I’m starting to recognize you from a couple of other comment threads in this community :)
I was thinking illustrator, like those who draw the often semi abstract drawing what go with magazine articles.
Have you heard of synarchy? An actually secret society controls the world via so-called secret societies (the ones you’ve probably heard of), even those with seemingly contradictory goals. Of course they’re so secretive that you’ve never heard of them.
Just kidding I’m paraphrasing a conspiracy nut from Foucault’s Pendulum (good read, but very Noun heavy).___
Yeah for this reason I worry about illustrators and concept artists. Those used to be dream jobs, now I’m not so sure they’re even jobs anymore.
I agree that the game falls apart without challenge, but the challenge will vary by player, especially those of different abilities. So while I wouldn’t use them (until I get older and slower maybe), I support the addition of optional accessibility options in Souls games. They aren’t a fun little experiment anymore - they’re a proven formula, and I believe it can survive tweaking.
I agree with the person you were replying to, and I am glad that the Souls formula isn’t the norm (I’ve played all of them, and haven’t finished a one)…
But the Soulses get a pass from me personally, because their whole thing is about being present in the moment and overcoming what appear to be unbeatable odds. It’s the closest thing in modern gaming that gave me the feeling of being crushed by, and overcoming, the first Airship level in Mario 3.
That said, I’m not against accessibility option in a Souls game, so long as they’re optional.
Nice. Seasonal worker? I dream of taking off a huge chunk of time rather than a few days here and there
I see what you’re saying, and agree with your clarification. Maybe a broad term like red ocean wasn’t the best choice of words.
I was thinking more about how it’s harder for individual (or tiny) contributors to stand out. This is just one metric, but look at steam games tagged as “indie” released over the years. Game developers went from having stand out among dozens of other games, to hundreds.
Like I’m part of a group of solo/tiny game devs outfits, and we’re seeing first-hand how a game is almost dead in the water unless you spend serious time/money on marketing.

A hundred percent, but the fact remains that journalists have a very hard time supporting themselves in their profession. A job that is critical (when done well) to an informed public.
It must be depressing knowing you could just take a TypeScript React bootcamp and probably double salary in a year. Like, journos have an important job. It’s just not lucrative, despite its value to people/society.
