It's so jarring being in both gamedev and webdev. The main motivating factors for the majority of the devs are so different. Webdevs always talks mmr, user count, monetization, etc. Most gamedevs are just happy that they can fund their next game

I'm late to this one because I specifically wanted to avoid the ~internet drama~ surrounding it, but I asked 20 game devs what they thought about Stop Killing Games. Some of these answers were genuinely fascinating - huge thanks to all the devs who helped out!

Like i can see a lot of paths where it becomes good, but the expectations people have right now are so different and out of whack

peculiarnewbie @peculiarnewbie.com · Aug 15

It's still unclear to me what stop killing games actually demands. Maybe by design? Be vague, let petition signers decide what it means for them, then figure it out later on the review?

Congratulations to Jeremy Crawford and Chris Perkins joining Darrington Press! Their creativity helped shape D&D as we know it today and the team they nurtured continues to shape its future.

We look forward to playing their next adventure.
