People told me to "read up on how NFTs work" so I did and now I know:
1. It's a scam! Don't fall for it!
2. Artists will lose money (creating NFTs costs money, dubbed "gas fees")
3. Buyers also lose money (who will you sell it to?)
Here's a simple chart, is this not how it works?

Well, what is a “legitimate install” and what is “install bombing”?
They clearly state that one user can incur the fee multiple times on a single purchase.
Is 2 times legitimate? What about 10? 100? 1000?
They’re contradicting themselves.

I cannot believe he said this! If your game scope is too big for all the bugs to be found, this means that either:
- You didn't hire enough testers
- You didn't give testers enough time
You should have said "We didn't do enough testing" insdead of throwing QA under the bus.

I did a thread of Polish references in Witcher 3 some time ago. But Dying Light, despite being set in a fictional middle eastern city of Harran, has a ton of Polish references and influences. Let me go over these! 🧵
Playing Witcher 3 on the switch again makes me wonder if people do realise that a lot of the quests, characters and monsters and even a big part of the main story is based on Polish folklore? For example, Fyke Isle's "Mice Tower" is an actual place you can visit in Poland.

I've read so many bad takes on the CDPR crunch situation that I really need to address them. This is a thread, and my last take today. Sorry for ranting so much, it just makes me unreasonably angry. First, context: CDPR announces mandatory crunch. 0/
Last year, the bosses of CD Projekt Red approached me for an interview. They wanted to announce that for Cyberpunk 2077, they would be avoiding mandatory crunch.
This week, they sent out an email to staff announcing studio-wide mandatory crunch. News:

This tweet is all you need to know about how game engines actually get in the way of development.
Rendering an extra mesh for a couple of frames is the simplest shit to program ever.
But modern engines will diligently get in your way when trying to do something like this.
Animation and Rigging wizards, how are things like mario's "extra feet" set up and animated? Are they just extra bits skinned to joints? How do you keyframe their visibility? Just scale them down to 0 when you want to hide them?
