Don WilliamsonIt suddenly dawned on me what LinkedIn reminds me of! It's the old MCV magazine that you'd find lying around in gamedev offices that nobody other than the CEO would read.
Simon Carter@Donzanoid that’s not entirely fair. MCV occasionally had useful information from people familiar with their industry, and wasn’t solely a toxic fog of thought-farts from uninformed grifters.
@bbbscarter my only memories are from the days when I thought anybody above the production floor was an uninformed grifter so I am definitely being more harsh than you 😂
One of my favourite experiences was working on the swear jar game where the marketting team were on the production floor with us. Turned out they know a lot about games and love them just like us!
@Donzanoid oh, I just meant that MCV was bad, but not LinkedIn bad.
LinkedIn *is* a toxic fog of thought-farts from uninformed grifters.
The Seven Voyages Of Steve@Donzanoid I get MCV now because I signed up for Develop Magazine 20+ years ago (in person at Develop I think) but it ended up getting merged into MCV in the last few years and my registration details are so old I can't seem to unsub using any of the online systems available
Mak@Donzanoid nah you can't do MCV dirty like that. LinkedIn is définitif proof that humanity should be wiped out of existence by an interstellar body or a plague.
