  • Some Fillipino’s I’ve talked to have commented that drug problems in their area disappeared but used to be pretty horrible.

    I’m not one to defend crimes against human’s, but one cannot discount the level of criminality and the impact it was already having on people’s lives. Whether the tactics were fair or decent is one thing, but another is, did it work? Did it solve a serious problem the country was grappling with? You only have to look at Mexico to realise that if you don’t deal with these things, the level of murder and suffering often skyrockets.













  • In agile development. You do a little, release. Otherwise it is too big and may never be done. The fact they committed resources to improve this is a positive. The hope is they build on it and add more options.

    However, if they get trashed for trying, they and many other companies may not try. Why spend money to get a bad reputation when the spending nothing creates less I’ll will to the company. That is ultimately the decision Product Owners and Designers will weigh up.

    I think for progress, the best approach is maybe “positive first step but more options are needed for non-bonary for this to really make players feel comfortable”.

    From a technical perspective, separating pronoun hard coding from the models gives more scope to give more options in the future, however, as someone mentioned, there is a lot of art work needed on assets and animations so the new shapes function the same in all cases.
