@838d1c5d Contractors and freelancers are fine.
As long as they're directly contracted on a per-project basis and remunerated to compensate for downtime..
Which is not the model of gaming contractors at all.
@62021fcb@aea3822c The weird part is I'm old enough to have played PC games with space mapped to jump. For a long time, actually.
But when it comes to fighting games jump is up. It just is. My brain won't hear otherwise.
@aea3822c Hah. I share Wilingham's distaste for current copyright law (I'd be more conservative than he is on reform, but still), but this is a fantastic way to screw with a bad faith corporate actor. Creators always have the power all labor has: they can always make more stuff.
It's a bummer for whoever is on Telltale working on Fables stuff, but hey, on the plus side nothing here is stopping them.
@de22920b I didn't know what this was and the concept makes me sad. I'm sad now.
I'm sure it's good, whatever. It's just the fact that the answer to shitty Internet has consistently been paywalling the good kind, especially around information. News? All paywalled now. Search? Apparently paywalled, too. Video? Paywalls all over.
Meanwhile, the paranoia, conspiracies and misinformation remain free.
Well that's a downer.
@aea3822c There's a mention of a 16 bit visual mode, but no screenshots. I'm... curious, considering what a dither-fest the original is with no filtering.
