CORRECTION: there is no such thing as a half broken game. By definition a game that is half broken, is broken. No ifs, no buts. Which brings me to the Unisoft shareholder statement/press release and what it really says. As a PR man, who is involved in the creation of these things, I can encapsulate the entire document thus: We are sorry for our 'commercial'/some might say 'anti-consumer' practices. Here's what the 3 bullets really say: We are sorry for releasing rushed, half finished games. We are sorry for the half baked new mechanics and passing them off as innovation. We are sorry for trying to sell you asset flipped, cookie cutter experiences in the hope that you will swallow them as new. On this last point. People don't buy different. They buy better. You don't go into Doom Eternal because it is different, you buy it because you loved the first Doom and now want something better. Innovating on the original for sure but not different. This moment is an important one. Seeing games companies admit that they've mistakes is a big step forward that will hopefully lead to better games. In the short-term anyway. The gaming community deserves kudos for showing these corporations that they have underestimated us. That we will not put up with their cynical attempts to make money. Love & Respect. Alex Moscow

2019-10-26 06:48:44 +0000 UTCYou all know the yin-yang’s actual name, it is tai-chi, although often used to refer the martial arts style, it is originally a Chinese philosophy, which use the yin-yang as it’s symbol.
