This is part of why the typical sneering at ‘auteurism’ in games discourse grates on me. Rather than acknowledging the creative efforts of people, you end up assigning authorship to ‘the team,’ which ultimately becomes ‘the company,’ which ultimately is just the corporate entity who holds ‘the IP.’

Cara Ellison @caraellison.bsky.social · Aug 21

an awful part of our industry is that we are quick to say stuff like ‘auteurs are garbage, the team actually made it’ but when specific individual workers supply fantastic craft execution in impossible circumstances execs are v quick to erase that by diluting their credit/selling it as IP

This article by @jmbooyah.bsky.social is really good about the struggles that people from Gaza have on this platform and how Bluesky could have made different choices.

I’ll highlight the accounts of some of the Gazans in it below ❤️
