  • I think that is already a requirement? As a dev I hated that we had to make what is essentially a day one DLC, which isn’t a good look. ”Look, they lock content behind DLC, which they already have, it cost them nothing”. Players extrapolate from that to other content we release later, content we actually haven’t even designed yet. Ugh.

    Well, making a season pass is crap too, but there was no way to talk the publishing department out of that.

  • Of course, very experienced people made the recipe by eyeballing, but there was probably still trial and error to get to the desired result. But I don’t have time for this when I’m trying to bake a birthday cake for my son.

  • The issue I linked has a very good analysis of the UX issues and several suggestions for fixing these. They went with a minor iteration on the original message box, which not only includes a clearer message and the number of files affected, but also defaults to not touching untracked files (while preserving the option to delete untracked files as before).

  • I read someone else musing that they must have thought that keeping it plugged in all the time would be bad, so the made it impossible to use the mouse while plugged in. Seems plausible. I suppose it would degrade the battery? Or the cord drag would be bad?

  • The worst thing of the root canal for me was that they had a hard time getting the numbing agent where it needed to go, so they used a lot, so half my face was numb for the rest of the day. So I looked really weird when eating/drinking/speaking/smiling.

  • Testing a ton of medication for pregnant/breastfeeding women. So much medication I couldn’t take, simply because it’s not considered ethical to have the studies done, since it could affect the baby in all sorts of ways. Which we can’t clear up without the studies. So annoying.

  • I find your take hilarious - that compiling a console game for PC would be trivial (and to support that very different platform) and that devs/publishers simply „refuse“ to do it.

    Now, open source is a different topic and I can’t really estimate the effect it would have if it was standard across the industry.
