Nobody ever explained anything more than the likes of “Voldemort’s back! You have to believe me!” If anyone actually gave account or explained anything at all, the good guys would have a lot more allies than they do. Hell, actually talking is how they convinced a bunch of people to let Harry teach them dark arts defense in Order of the Phoenix. It seems that actually talking is how every good event happens, and that not talking is how every bad event happens.

It’s FOSS. I’d imagine people would fork it, because fuck it

Linux doesn’t work for most people, and Windows and Mac are corporate. I hope ReactOS succeeds.

Hey look, there it is again in the one I’m at now. Hermoine to Potter: “What’s wrong with your hand?” Potter: “Nothing.” (This was the Dolores torture). Hermoine actually finds out, which is refreshing. “You’ve got to tell Dumbledore.” Harry: “No. Dumbledore’s got enough on his mind right now.” Freaking stupid, Harry.

This “is anything happening?” “No, nothing.” exchange with Potter is constant in this series.

Fuck you, Unity.

Japan would rather die. Microsoft, I don’t know what their shit deal is.

I hope so, but frankly we’ll just have to see. The people with the money and power usually win.

No, not my minis!

There’s nothing socialist about China.

But it wasn’t.

People talked about it a ton when it was new.

This is not what I want to see on World News.

I agree with you completely. I just wasn’t about to write an essay on potential contributing factors that can help one succeed, plus luck. I just wanted to say that these days, there are a lot of indie smash hits out there that succeed in part because people saw a whole lot of love in them, when a lot of the more cynical corporate creators would never have made such things in such ways. Hell, it’s not just indies. It’s why many Nintendo games are so beloved, even “forgotten” ones like Earthbound. ^^

I know that stupid rich CEOs and shareholders don’t understand this, but… “heart”. You make a game with heart, and it’s immediately apparent to the audience. You can try to break down what it is that gives it away, but that’s unnecessary.

If a work of art has heart, it will probably sell well. As long as people can clearly see what it is, and as long as it doesn’t do anything alienating.

This was one of the best laughs I’ve had in a bit, thank you

How is that fucking legal?

…Not really, but I get your point.

I agree, you will be liquid long before you ever reach a rocky surface. Or a molten one if it’s that.

I myself knew you were just being informative, and I loved reading it ^^
