Forums - Microsoft - Jonathan Blow: Microsoft have a cultural habit of treating small developers like s**t

That isn't from Azumanga Daioh, right?



Around the Network

I do believe Blow is a crybaby and he hates MS so much he is willing to lose all credibility by complaining publicly all the time. In this industry I do think you should voice your concerns and share new ideas with console makers but the way he does it is just plain wrong.

Like some pointed, if you're not happy with MS, ok voice your opinion to MS so you can find an arrangement otherwise just don't develop for their platform. If you can't affort to not develop for their platform then act accordingly not like a baby kid.

I also don't understand people that think MS is evil by asking release parity. Why should a game get less content when launching on MS platform? If you plan on releasing your game on different platform them inform yourself on different policies of these platforms first... is that so hard? MS is not depending on indy games, it's trying to be an all around console of course some focus will not be geared at gaming...
