he would probably bail the moment someone mentions niggers and jews.
calling themselves "liberals", american west seems to be very intolerant of opposing or even differing views

Staying on social network bubbles of constant outrage degrades mental endurance, turns normal people into hysterical bitches over time. Probably both Twitter and Facebook have their internal reports on this, which they keep secret.

I often search previous threads, some old developers had an account here. I think Sawyer maybe had one too. So they seemed to be fine posting on the Dex, until some point.

TikTok is banned in the country that created it, which should tell you about the effect the mainstream social networks have on the populace.

Are you sure that by now, other kinds of bubbles exist? :)
It's pretty polarised all over i'd think.

As to Sawyer .. just me, but when you willingly turn yourself into the male equivalent of a lesbian cyclist and start apologising for your distant ancestry .. maybe what you say on Twitter -especially since you use it extensively- doesn't really matter. Maybe you as a person no longer really matters either.
(emphasis on person; forget his occupation)

Sad shit.

That's not a studio job though. Or even specific to video games. You have directors in everything that involves voice acting.

It’s been a job for 40ish years, you’re just only starting to see them being used in the game industry.

For example I believe Bruce Timm has said that he credits Andrea Romano as the person most singularly responsible for the success of the DCAU.

imagine if they spent that money on actually making games have good gameplay instead of making them more like movies

Can’t disagree there.

Although Josh was also purportedly pretty pissed about the mandated full-VO for Deadfire.
