The State of Games, Ep. 99 – The One About The State of Things

stateofgameslogonewThe times sure have been a-changin’ of late, what with so many mergers, acquisitions, sellings and such. Of course, we here at Dice Hate Me are no strangers to the process, and in this podcast we take a closer look at some of the big happenings around the industry. Don’t worry, we also take plenty of time to talk about cool games we’ve experienced and ones we’re looking forward to in 2016.

    As an “indy” publisher myself, I don’t want a break. I want people to play my games if they deliver enough bang for their buck. In the age of Kickstarter, there is enough money out there for projects that are worthy. I don’t play inferior games out of respect for the idea of “indy”. I do see the strength of indy stuff is that they can have a clear vision and not need to conform to a plan that has been over-managed. Jim Pinto does some wild stuff because he doesn’t have to answer to anybody except the people who buy his games. The bigger companies have to worry about damaging their brand and that means they will always have less fire in their bellies than the indy guys.
