None of us being map making geniuses, we'd always end up with something that didn't play well but did have a few "fun spots". Eventually someone had the idea to just cherry pick all those fun spots and Frankenstein toge

I see what you mean. It's because of the way we handle drugs that this extreme violence happens. Very interesting.

Why is it pointless? (real question) Also, something I'm not sure I get entirely is why violence is like the silver bullet of cartels? Necessary I get it, silver bullet? Why? What is calculated violence?

I think I understand your point guys. Illegalization and demonization are one way of preventing people from using drugs. What you say is that there is other ways which in addition have other benefits. Uneducated and influenceable people cu

Advise for game developers: that's why you should not do clones or games which looked different but are actually clones - like not-so-innovative 2d platformers. If you think about an innovation for your next game, think about it twice,
