The best bit to me is both Brazil and Israel have had these "nah, it was rigged!" bullshit meltdowns, so when Trump does it next week hopefully everyone will be bullshitted out and not give him the time.

    So do what Supergiant and Embark did? I agree with the sentiment: it is clear the main thing missing from games is the passion of the people making them. All the great games in the past were made by groups of people with a shared passion and vision, without overbearing corporate greed or executives watering down good ideas just in case they didn't appeal to absolutely everybody.

    However unless someone in that group has a rich relative, or they start early in life (see Arrowhead for example), the reality is it is hard to afford to live for years before finding out your dream project is a failure.

    Yes, ask the DOJ to appoint a special counsel to do what should have been their job in the first place. The very same DOJ who have actively being trying to bury the most incriminating files, reacting names they shouldn't and outing victims names instead. Yep, definitely the right people to appoint a special counsel who will find nothing.

    That and autoplay everything. Are you just trying to read a blurb to see what a show is about? Nah, we'll just start playing it for you anyway. Christ autoplay pisses me off. And yes, I have found and deselected autoplay in my profile to no effect.

    In Australia we try with the supply side too. There are ugly-as-fuck housing estates going up all the time. The problem is there are no restrictions on who can buy, so investors, both domestic and foreign, buy up huge numbers of houses before aspiring home owners have a chance to get in to the market. It's fucked.
