I think there is a lot MCA doesn't tell us.

Ask whatever you wish, I think the only reason I enter this forum is b/c you actually ask questions (which is rare vs. assumptions) - and sometimes, it's easy for me to forget computer game economics/development may not be transparent to people who follow it.

And it's not limited to here, but....

...always happy to answer/advise/help, although advise/help advice may only be helpful to anyone wanting to enter the industry. Anything else I could offer would solely be in the interests of providing perspective.

Is there a game which you worked on you wish you could remake or rewrite with modern engines, tools and bigger team plus a bigger budget? Just curious.

Not watching myself, but I'm seeing people saying it's "announcements" with an 's'.

Umm, why are those retards in the crowd waving their hands for no reason?

Also, these people are even more pathetic than the usual crowd, jizzing all over themselves for every announcement. Final Fantasy VII on xbox, jeez, I guess I'm jerking out on it right now!

Every day, Microsoft acquisitions can affect up to one quarter of the population. If you or someone you know has been acquired by Microsoft, there is hope. For every Doggy react you give this post, I will in turn donate one Money to Charity.

This DMC thing is endless.

Edit: I was wrong. It ended. Now, cats and pandas. WTF.

This conference is making me reconsider whether acquisition by MS will damage Obsidian's already shaky rep even further.

Cats and pandas video was cute !!! BTW right before the show an insider named Matt (don't know if its Matt Booty or what) said the two new studios are both similar to each other!!! Both roleplaying studios or both computer PC studios? Obsidian and Larian? Sorry I can't find the tweet but they're talking about it on the Resetera Microsoft thread! Ok gotta get back to discord, but my hype is totally restored and I thought you'd all love to know the rumor since you all love gossip and drama so much!

bye
