I’m a little disappointed that the Tom Chick article didn’t mention the Sacrifice solution to three-way RTS’ing: tying tech upgrades to damage dealt means that the people who get right into the fight in the beginning are getting stronger.

Assuming it’s not the same guy, there’s a series of of Youtube videos called “How Not To Play Hitman”.

Part 1: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GRC5ab5tLUY

“Why the David Thomas hate? I thought he made a valid point, and one I would’ve thought most gamers would agree with.”

He’s erroneously blaming EA for censorship when in fact it’s simply a situation of spore community regulation. Personally if enough people log something as offensive, then it probably is generally. Saying there should be no judgments is just an invitation to encourage internet/something awful levels of ever more depraved levels of shadenfreude (‘look at me!!! I made an dog f**king a baby creature!!!). I hardly think it’s comparable to catching Nirvana on the airwaves at your local stationary store.

Will Wright said that customer service reps will look over content that’s received enough flags from the community.

Yep, that’s right: some poor saps will spend their days staring at cock creatures.

Why the David Thomas hate? I thought he made a valid point, and one I would’ve thought most gamers would agree with. Or at least make a stink about.

especially for the US where their biggest games are made by a UK-import company, importing UK-concieved ideas

I’m not sure I get this, he doesn’t mean games magazines, does he? I’m sure Kieron knows more about the situation than I do, but this would be news to me.
