An algorithm that compresses arbitrary data is actually slightly harder than you make it sound, by which I mean mathematically impossible. If you have an algorithm that can take any file file that is...

Those Twelve Guys You Gave Money To On The Kickstarters are probably more likely to go bankrupt than any of the more common retailers from whom people pre-order games. Also, the costs and effort...
It's worth pointing out that the first month doesn't come with a subscription fee for the ones that otherwise carry one.
Beyond that I'd say a pretty major question is what people you know are...
I'm not saying this doesn't happen and some goods certainly would sell in the same amounts at higher prices, but the main reason stuff sells for under material cost isn't that players don't value...
The difference between the vendor price for what I craft and what I ask when listing it is usually somewhere between 30s and 40s. I'm reasonably confident the significant increase in trade volume a...
I get where you're coming from but with the way the trading post is designed that'd be extremely irrational of me. That little game of prisoner's dilemma is massively biased against cooperation, far...
I was feeling much the same until I realized yesterday that there are actually things I could make with my laboriously aquired crafting skills that sell on the TP for significantly more than their...
You run this secret military force that's trying to stop some sort of monster invasion. Apparently this means you get an army of around 20 guys, most of which suck and need to be fired immediately, a...
Yeah, "facial expressions" is another one of those terms not actually mentioned anywhere in the article or interview. I don't really see how the assertion that replacing the vaguely robotic creatures...
If you also read the article the actual wording is is that it's very difficult to portray emotions and the word convey is not used. There is a definite difference. Uncanny valley is certainly a thing...
Portal is a great game, but I'm surprised so many here consider it an FPS at all. Sure, it's single character and first-person perspective but so is Wizardry IV. There's a distinct lack of shooting...
I'm surprised at the low level of buzz La-Mulana seems to be getting overall. The original was pretty damned popular given how niche it was and helped inspire a small renaissance in exploration...
Some other goon asked Mythic why their art was apparently all over the internet and actually got a reply:
Their Facebook page was taken down once people started commenting on the Burton Design...
By multiple people, myself included. I'm not sure Kickstarter have staff on weekends and if they do they're probably going to want to do their own brief investigation and give the people involved the...
Well, it was pretty much inevitable that someone would try to use Kickstarter in a scam and here's contestant number one: Mythic: the Story of Gods and Men.
Points of evidence (Internet...
