    I agree with you but it’s so hard to talk about. Most major publishers are leeches who artificially drive up price and force developers to release unfinished games…yet at the same time, the cost of development has gone up. Indie games are proof that you don’t NEED fancy graphics with mocapped actors to make a good game but it’s irrelevant when there’s bigger demand for “cinematic experience” and that stuff ain’t cheap.

    But because I used to pay $30 for a game in the 90s, I think games should be $30 forever.








  • If I was in his shoes, I’d want a wife, too. Farms are a shitton of work and a partnership would share the burden and improve both our lives.

    There’s a cool “reality” show from the late 2000s called Victorian Farm where a group of historians move into an old farm and live like the late 1800s for a year. One of the historians is an expert on domestic life and it’s fascinating seeing what being a “housewife” was like. They work just as hard all day and if their husband is sick or hurt, they have to pick up the slack in the field.
