@brainiac1988 Holy shit, they responded unbelievable immaturely. Not only did they throw out "Japanese games" in a borderline racist manner, but they went off on Japanese tropes that probably aren't even applicable to that freelance programmer's mindset. I've played plenty of indie Japanese titles that do quite the opposite of holding your hand. What are these indie devs doing? With the exception of Team Meat, whose mindsets I generally do like, the rest certainly do come across stand-offish.
FISH is obviously a talented artist but, I have to say, of everyone in Indie Game The Movie, I felt he was the most cynical and negative about the industry. It sucks to see Fez go, but nothing about his demeanor seems healthy. I can't imagine making something that gets me that down all of the time a part of my every day life.
@pongley @alioli Because... you don't remove the DRM? People are doing that regardless. If anything, allowing trade-ins via the steam trading platform will decrease that. You could do it like Microsoft does with their office products. Deactivate one install to install somewhere else
There is a really good commentary on this whole issue and why it really matters that DRM be shut down on consoles: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KL9_BIENLH4
