Big sack of cash and a good mark on her CV. And Obsidian has been kind of a clusterfuck the past few years with Avowed having been more or less restarted from scratch like three times?

Netflix games is a sinking ship but so is... a lot of the games industry. Whereas working as a creative at Netflix is potentially a way to pivot out and away from games entirely. Carrie is also a writer (I think self published?) so that is a further way to seem like someone who can transition to a different department.

Happens all the time. Netflix is moneyhatting, promises someone who knows how to do the job a great salary to do it for them instead.

Haha Netflix games. If you thought your titles were unfinished garbage before, just wait.

It's like watching human centipede: executive decision. They just keep eating each other's shit.

Maybe the guy at the front will eat vanilla paste instead of cuttlefish this time.

If he's¹ on the case like properly I'll be a happy camper. There's been a couple of actually enjoyable mobile games from netflix.

He? You mean she, Carrey Patel?

[–] Yermaw@lemm.ee 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I meant they because it wasn't specified in the headline, but you can't win them all.

[–] ms_lane@lemmy.world -1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

You can, if you don't know their gender, instead of assuming one way or the other - that's what them/they/their/they're are for.

I corrected my mistake and am still getting told about it. The most innocuous of mistakes in one of the lowest stakes locations and topics available.

If you made an edit I guess it doesn't update for other servers - viewing these comments from a lemm.ee account in Voyager and it's still the original..

Avowed? Really?
