When I first went for a solo 3 week holiday to South Korea in 2006, I remember literally being insulted for going. The "Why go?", "Why not go to a normal country?", and "It's dangerous."
Now, Korean culture has gone global and it's honestly something I still cannot quite grasp.
I wonder when business model became more important to the games industry that craft and quality. So many games, especially on mobile and in live services, are built around how to retain users and get them to spend. I can't think of any other art form that does this.
This. This. This.
And then the studio expects you to also be a rep of said group because no one else will.
Which then burns them out because the person is doing extra x2 work in addition to their job and dealing with the passive backlash that comes with being visible.
Lol
Itaewon tragedy:
11 written records of 112 emergency police report calls that night have been released, from 6:30 pm to just a couple minutes before what authorities have been referring to as the time the "accident" happened -- 10:15pm.
I am translating them here. Thread:
오늘 오후 서울시청광장 #이태원 사고 사망자 합동 분향소에서 영국을 대표하여 조문을 하였습니다. This afternoon I paid my respects on behalf of the UK at the shrine in Seoul City Hall plaza in memory of the victims of the #Itaewon disaster.
Say what you will about Liz Truss, but shaving 71 days off the British Prime Minister Any% speedrun is an impressive feat that historians will be talking about for decades.
