I read the article, and I still feel like I need a tl;dr. Seems very disjointed with no thesis. What is the point here?

- yarou 10y agoHe's mad because he realizes that his life has no worth. Edit: You can tell he wants attention due to his caption containing: 'A popular industry personality on Twitter'. The way his entire screed on Medium reads is quite like a rant a woman would have.
- yarou 10y agoHe was used by a monkey in a business suit, and now he has buyer's remorse. Caveat emptor motherfucker! Thanks for the downvotes friends.
- moonshinefe 10y agoYeah, I don't get it either. It reads like someone who smoked a bunch of pot and is spouting off various, insanely vaguely related points but with no clear thesis whatsoever.
- VLM 10y agoaka social media. I think thats the style they're intentionally aiming for. Come here instead of facebook. Interestingly you can make a good comparison between "competitive like collectors" on social media and gaming.
- matxip 10y agoHe is having an existential crisis about finding self worth while working in an entertainment industry. He then blames everyone else for not having the exact same values as him.
- closed 10y agoI agree, it sounds like the author is arguing that the direction games take needs to change, in order to promote a positive cultural shift. He sounds like he's thought a lot about what he's writing about, but it seemed like he sometimes spent several paragraphs speaking from the opposite perspective of his own, in a way that was a bit jarring.
- Pent 10y agoThe point is alluded to in the article. He is writing to elicit emotion in order to subtly market his two brand new games.
