@schillingc @cliffski I don't disagree to most of this, though I'm not sure how you know the original tweet was *wilfully* misleading and not just mistaken?
Principle of charity suggests you should assume an error first, not malice. Another, more glib aphorism also says this.
@schillingc @cliffski My point was not about distress caused, but distress gleefully celebrated.
@mode7games Yes but if I choose to believe he does, then I can justify (to myself) being an asshole to him, and being an asshole is such an enjoyable emotional release! I can't get back at my high school bully or jerk boss but this is the only substitute I have!
@schillingc @cliffski There are some tweets in there, including from blue-checkmarked people with professional status, which openly express enjoyment at Cliff's distress.
@schillingc @cliffski I don't agree with what Cliff said, but I think it's also fair to say the reactions were more aggressive and numerous than necessary.
Tons of people piling on without adding any new thoughts.
@neceros Secret :)
@jwiechers @patio11 Interesting, bureaucracy *is* algorithms, except executed by mindless paper-pushing humans instead of silicon.
Bureaucracy can't flex to accomodate human-world exceptions, the same way silicon algorithms can't. That's why it's been hated for so long.
@Sinvicta It's funny, I remember years ago I used to watch HuskyStarcraft and he would mention your role in getting the replays for him to cast. Strange the things that stick in your head, and it's a small world. Cheers.
RimConnect - This mod links with Twitch and lets audiences vote to torture their favorite streamer with whatever incidents they want! What could be more delightful?
@TroubledxGames I recommend you delete all the files and reinstall from scratch. If it doesn't work please describe what you're actually seeing and/or post your log file. More info in the ludeon forums.
@DanStapleton They don't need to be fun in the giddy lighthearted sense, I think, but they need to be compelling.
I think the TV show comparison is better than movies. The Wire is like 50 hours, and few would call it 'fun'... but it's compelling and bingeable.
@RyanSumo more intensity
@besubtropical For an example of a game MVP, compare RimWorld 1.0 with the Kickstarter version released in 2013. The concept of MVP applies very well to games and is the fulcrum of a development process.
@besubtropical I hesitate to give any advice because I really don't know your specific situation. It's good you're reading the book though!
You can play those prototypes if you buy RimWorld DRM-free though :) I think there are YouTube videos of them too.
@wasabi2576 I'd say buy it now, but I may be biased :)
@thatJaneNg An RPG without combat - isn't that an adventure game?
@Buson94 check the in-game description, it's exactly what that are
@KailanWalker It's general anasthetic, which typically doesn't stop pain at all. It just knocks you unconscious so you never feel it.
@KailanWalker All mood effects are suspended while a pawn is unconscious so in some sense it does.
@Taaaashaaaaa You can make a caravan and go buy some.
