  • 'Marketing's dead, and I can back this s**t up': Baldur's Gate 3 publishing director says players 'just want to be spoken to, and they don't want to be bamboozled'

  • There's a few separate threads of people responding to your comment regarding what marketing is, so it's probably helpful to add what the guy actually said in the linked article (I know, who reads the article anymore🙄).

    "Marketing is dead," he said. "Marketing is dead. It truly is—I can back this shit up, man. There's no channels anymore—it doesn't work. You used to have marketing, communication, and PR. Marketing was essentially a retail theory—you were trying to get your box on the right point of the store shelf, and you have partnerships with retail stores. Those pipelines are gone. Now you've got the internet. Nobody is looking at ads anymore … all of the channels that we would usually market through are no longer really viable. So their function is also reduced by the fact that players just want to be spoken to. They don't want to be bamboozled—they just want to know what you're making and why you're making it and who it's for."

  • I don't know USC's protocols per se, but I imagine there's actually a pretty decent list of people who all have 4.0s in a university that size. Unless you're going to have hundreds of "valedictorian" speeches, there needs to be some sort of selection process.

  • I agree - that's why we should not allow Presidents, Governors, or any other public figures to speak at any event because they clearly also come with a heightened risk to everyone there.

  • China’s Youth Are Quitting the Rat Race to ‘Let It Rot’

  • Agreed that the problem is capitalism, but I don't know about "no upside." The poverty rate in China has continually decreased. While we in the west might argue that living under authoritarian rule might not be worth the tradeoff, that certainly is an upside.

  • Wait, the problem in your mind with China is that it's not as safe for multinational companies to exploit their populace?
