A week and a half ago at the GDC (Game Developer's Conference), a panel of games industry people + one crazy lady) (Warren Spector, Greg Costikyan, Chris Hecker, Jason Della Rocca, and the crazy lady, Brenda Laurel) ranted about how they hate the games industry. I had issues with what Warren, Greg, and Brenda had to say, so wrote a response that Terranova published here:
Just thought some of you might be interested. It's been making the rounds, including front page of Slashdot. For those who may not be familiar, Warren Spector is a long-time developer who has worked for Steve Jackson Games, TSR, Origin, Looking Glass, Ion Storm, etc. Greg Costikyan hasn't worked on anything like the high profile titles Warren has, but is still a respected indie-style thinker. I have no idea who Brenda Laurel is, and don't care.
Indie power, bitch.
