Journalism and bias in the gaming industry.
And do you want a cookie then ? Good for you, Bruce! Sure, just as the last paragraph pretty much is the viewpoint you are seeing as paranoid. But, again, it works for you, and is always the barb thrown whenever there is a suspicion of anything, I suppose. Not that it is really a major concern either way, as TrueNeutral has a thorn in his ass on, but it is always a good and enjoyable thing to examine any "guidelines" being pushed, subtly or not, for problems or issues.

Amusing that you label it as paranoid, considering the large bunch of that post you left out that points at that. But I suppose said characterization does work for you so... As for Chu, his Twitter edginess is pretty funny, even if he is some nobody.

It does, though I suppose the scum posting stuff in PE forums isn't quite comparable to something like the IGDA. But what's the harm in talking about them ? Hurting the IDGA's feelings or something ?

Not really malicious though, they think they're doing good with these 'guidelines'. Any time you write suggestions on how others are to do things you are trying to influence them from the outside, right ?

On the subject of BS jobs
Well, one could argue "art" is an essential (artsies gotta eat somewhow), people need entertainment and so on, much like services like transit, sanitation, power, etc. A BS job would be one not actually producing something or providing a service. Is interesting to see the dependent jobs resulting for any given obviously essential job, too.

It runs smooth for me on my ancient 560ti, chugs when I zoom down with less of the hideous blurring (Tilt or something, they call it). http://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/showthread.php?843300-The-Newly-Crowned-King-of-City-Builders-Shatters-Paradox-Sales-Records! Also Cities sold 250k (with pre-orders) on the first day.

Yep, rather common throughout this whole affair too. Still not sure what they are pushing is as simple as localization though, but oh well.

True, but considering the source of all this, it's also quite possible that you're primed to see things that simply aren't there. My field being medicine, it's quite obviously not Well, hence suspicion rather than knowing - the lack of a guarantee is implicit, right ?

This is a rich comment, but I guess it will work well to avoid the mods here. Considering the source of all this, suspecting them of having a point they are beating around the bush of, doesn't require much familiarity with the jargon on display here - which isn't really anything from your field, it's a document for developers, or some excuse for these days (Visual Programming, yay..) Also, related to IGDA and reading anything by Derek Smart is worth a laugh - http://pastebin.com/3vmdTvHK

Hm, that's a shame. I suppose they didn't have an alternative, at least back then (UE4 being free is an option now).

Ah, back to being a **** again, what a shock. The field in question is development right - this is a document for technically minded people. And if your English skills are so poor or perhaps you are just too dumb to pick it up, the teasing of Humanities fields is just that, teasing. While STEM is more useful to me, humanities people never fail to get upset and angsty over mocking their majors, so it's pretty good return.
