    I've never been to LA, I must confess

    I assume it's positively burgeoning with "hey how ya doin' fuggedaboudits" by now

    You know, I like to groan and roll my eyes at Chapo as much as the next guy, but this weeks example of two of them going on a mainstream political podcast had me thinking holy fuck we need to burn all this shit to the ground chapo now chapo forever.

    Nah, what delays like this mean is that the planning they had to reach a shippable state is not progressing as fast as they'd anticipated for a variety of reasons. They have to push the game up to a certain state for shipping by about two months before release (which before the delay was... now) and they realized they're not there and either if they shipped the game as it is now it would not pass TRC (console certification) or they're not internally satisfied with its level of polish. It's not "QA just found a bug", it's "there are still too many crashes, walkthrough breaks, annoying bugs and we need more time to fix them". Bugs don't hide in a game for months before QA finds them, they are found by QA on the day the build they're in is produced. Projects always know exactly how buggy they are and it's up to the producers to manage the dev timeline and budget around this.

    This has been How The Sausage Is Made.

    They run through the bizarre experience of it on their podcast. I probably should listen to the actual episode of the Skullduggery podcast, but I don't really want to.

    Chappo and the dirt bag left are problematic

    The moderate and center left are problematic too

    I'm watching GB's Load Our Last Save featuring Sekiro

    I didn't know that there was a Ninja (like, the streamer) graphic novel

    That's awful

    I will continue to root for chapo in general because the third way needs to fucking die, but I'm not on board with all their revolutionary rhetoric. I'm at my heart a Roosevelt Democrat, but if I'm going to lean one way from their it's left not right.

    Yeah but tbh I'm probably not gonna listen to his wrestling podcasts and stuff, so I'll see a lot less of him.

    he's a producer on those isn't he, so probably his own personal podcasts are the only place to hear him.

    Looks like it's not out yet, it's a co-op card game. Could be neat I suppose!
