yeah but on further thought: have you ever traveled to a country outside of your own timezone (jet lag), in a culture very different than yours? i imagine it'd be pretty hard to sleep the first night here regardless of anything fish said

He said specifically he couldn't sleep because he couldn't stop thinking about what happened after the screening. Yes I agree, he didn't take it all that bad, but it's a shame he couldn't just laugh about it. I mean, the point I was making is that we can't really blame Phil for however the guy took it.

yes of course, i don't blame fish with how he took it, i just blame fish for saying answering the question carelessly in the first place, since, as i mentioned, the majority of anything is going to be bad, and it's better to focus on the positive than the negative when speaking about an entire country to someone from that country

as an aside, japanese AAA games may well be worse on average than western AAA games this generation, but in the indie sphere i think the opposite is true: doujin games are a lot better on average than western indie games

he pixels a few things and probably designs a few things too. but he can't even animate so he has to hire people and then kill them.

he does most of the level design i believe, using the editor for the game created by the programmer. that's often a pretty big job -- for instance i've probably spent more time in my current game's level editor than i have spent coding the game

Yes, I agree with this.  It sounds like Fish basically just restated Sturgeon's law in an obnoxious way.  When someone tried to point this out, he just dismissed it as irrelevant, but it's really not -- saying "japanese games suck" implies "more than non-japanese games".

wow. really great, funny post. congratulations winter. you did it. that face is really funny, because other people, also devoid of humour, operate on that unspoken assumption. its great to experience this kind of cross cultural exchange, between normal nerds, and abhorrent anime loving paedophiles, who form a giant humanoid out of a writhing mass of abhorrent anime loving paedophiles, and their collective grease and sebum enables them to move with such slick efficiency that the massive paedophile gestalt moves not with the shambling gait of a fat 4chan reader, but with the litheness and efficiency of motion of a lion, cougar, or similar. and this massive lipid golem darts toward the horizon, like a usain bolt from the blue, a cacophony of stupid catchphrases in its wake, reverberating utterances, so tangled in a sea of the jagged edges of the language of others, slowly giving way to the percussion of each booming step into the distance. until... silence. and those who bore witness look at each other, and with a sureness of purpose, each says out loud to one another, "man i'm glad those stupid fuckers are gone"

Joe, I would say that you need to write for something or other. But I realize that there is no publication great enough to contain your verse in this world.

the thing about words is, once you've picked a container to pour them into, they are no more interesting than the container itself. but if you piss against a federal building, that free flow has limitless potential.

your words and use of smileys belies a small-minded attempt to make yourself appear cool or perhaps edgy when in fact all it means is you once read a blog and realized all those punctuation marks could make faces and a whole new world of communication was opened up

its sort of like when the british empire forcibly opened up the canton system, in that everyone hates it but you and that you're a terrible person
