    The saddest thing is, this kind of egomaniacal dorkery is plenty common in the coding community. I'm sure those here who have worked on coding games are aware of that. It's almost as if it's necessary for every single community or corporation to have at least one socially inept, arrogant asshole in their ranks. More than that just earns them bonus points.

    It'd be foolish to think this is unique to software developers. I think every field has it's crazies who think they're god's gift to the field. I don't think the field in general has more or less, you probably just notice it more because a lot tend to be able to brag under the shroud of internet anonymity which makes everybody a little less considerate of their pride.

    I think you pretty much just nailed the synopsis of the whole game.

    This sounds like an even greater game I heard of. Going outside. It's a shame he can't play that, though.

    It's common in every industry, but I'd think that goes without saying. As you explained however, coders are much more noticeable because they rank amongst the interweb literate, and they tend to be noisy.

    Yeah, I agree -- you've summarized the whole experience. It's some revolutionary shit.

    Well he is right about something. Miyamoto, Itoi, Kojima, Carmack, and Wright would never make this game.

    I lol'd at the protest bit. I seriously if he thinks it'll work. I mean, like, seriously.

    Wait, you get food delivered to you and you have a shower with hot, working water, in your own home? And you won't leave? Well shit guys, he means business we better do what he says or he might be living comfortably.

    I sincerely apologize to all Nintendo staff, and all "bob's game" fans.
    I don't know what's come over me lately!
    I would never try to damage you, Nintendo! I'm a huge fan!

    I'm trying really hard here... I believe in you, Nintendo.
    You know how hard this is on me, right? It's practically torture! What else can I do, Nintendo? You won't ignore my protest, I know you won't!
    Your company must hear my pleas! A young hero trying his best- like Mario, or Link- won't be abandoned and tossed aside, will he?
    A kindhearted company like Nintendo would never ignore the pleas of a distressed young talent! I have faith in you, Nintendo!
    In fact, I... Ugh... My head... This pain! Why won't this pain go away?! DON'T YOU DARE IGNORE ME, NINTENDO.
    I DEMAND THE SDK- AND IF YOU DO NOT OBEY I WILL TAKE MY REVENGE, YOU MISERABLE FOOLS!
    I WILL RUN YOUR PATHETIC LITTLE COMPANY INTO THE GROUND AND SPIT ON THE SMOLDERING REMAINS!
    I WILL CRUSH YOU INTO DUST AND FLUSH AWAY THE ASHES LIKE ANY OTHER FILTH! ROTTING, PUTRID SEWAGE- THAT'S ALL YOU ARE!

    Meh. 8/10.
