game engine: you just don’t know what shader to compile until you need to render it!
game developer: my game stutters and I have a very good idea of what shaders I need to compile–

@ted_martens Yeah, I agree that LucasArts can defs find the time/money to figure that out, although I can understand why someone running a publisher like them might not ever do it.
A small work or self-published game is a different story though.
@ted_martens Were some of them published before Steam had those longer library tile images? Not sure what it’s like, but I could imagine your average publisher might not really have any process for updating them.
@docsquiddy I know the combat system for 13 Sentinels didn’t click with everyone, but I’d love to see more of that space explored. Its tempo really worked for me. It makes me excited to try this new game.

video essayist in 2033: bloodborne’s essence is lost at 60fps; its gothic mystery and sense of suspense stripped away and shown with crystal-clear modernity on the PS6—
@jetha I think this idea could help with students that are struggling in school too. Or, a lot of the incentives that sort of environment don’t help people apply themselves and find their niche.
