I can't wait for upper management to stop trying to make games.

The unfortunate truth is there are likely a lot of very talented developers at most big studios who ultimately don't have a say on what goes into the game.
Many don't turn around and try making a start-up game though, most just burn out of the industry forever.
The way business is structured in the modern day completely strangles progress and innovation by ignoring and sometimes even punishing workers trying to improve. Companies should be run by workers not businessmen so that there's a focus on the product rather than profit

Played through stray for the first time recently
The game was great, especially for how relatively small the team was, but honestly the reveal of the largest mystery in the game was very underwhelming.
It's still a good game though, I do recommend it.

Don't forget about Outlast, Astroneer and Sifu!

Hey, your cat thinks you're underwhelming as well, but she's fine with that as long there's food and scritches.

I worked at a company run by a SWEngineer.
He was code-smart for code, but really bad for business.
You need to get a real CEO who does management, but keep that person in firm check by mandating half the board be stacked by engineers. Even as advisory roles, like if your company makes widgets you should have some Serious Fucking widget people dominating the board for big decisions.
"You make one thing" is like "you had one job."
(And if you make two things so disparate, spin one off into a sub)

My argument is not "have someone better in charge" rather it's "we should have less hierarchy in the workplace"

Highly recommend Expedition 33. The game play is exactly what I've been looking for in a game, and the story and world are both amazing.

Stray was so mid... If it didn't have cute cats it would have been forgotten instantly.
I was most flabbergasted by the fact that you never hunt anything!! What a miss! How do you make a game where you play as a cat without any stealth stalking of prey??

Yeah, but it did have cute vibes and a lot of people love things just for cute vibes

If all the games didn't have the stuff that made them enjoyable then they'd be mid.

I am concerned about expedition. Everyone I know that’s played it, finished it in 3 days. That is a lackluster amount of gameplay. And that’s with a job. It’s not like they were no lifeing it or something. It’s on Gamepass though so I’ll play it soon

wrote on last edited by [email protected]I've got 30 hours into it and haven't finished it yet. I feel like it's got a decent amount of gameplay so far. Plus I am already planning a replay once with different party members. I've also heard the story is better in the 2nd playthrough (you don't really figure out wtf is going on until pretty far into the game). Definitely worth checking out, especially if you have Gamepass.

Story is about 30 h and side content another 30, I think that's pretty solid

Damn it, I bought this game. I was hoping it would be like Endling but less sad. That game made me cry like a bitch and I haven't played it since.
