Jonathan Blow on Linux users buying games and The Witness

Not to be too harsh, but when there is a pun I will go for it: Jonathon Blow is actually a bit of a blow hard. Not as bad as Team Meat (or should I simply say Tommy Refenes), but it is interesting to see people like this being associated to something with the name of "humble" when they gave the independent games movement much of it's "pretentious" veneer. Although, I must admit I may not actually be being that objective since I considered Braid to be one of the most over-hyped titles of the last decade.

Still, I remember when we did not have to have discussions like this, back when everyone could have a bit more faith in them... :(

True, as long as there is some authority it is no longer anarchistic. That would be more like tribal.

Well, they still have this notion of attacking knights and noblemen, when in the seventeenth century in England they were already busy attacking themselves. Still, I admit in that case it is a small quibble.

I think someone does not know what "medieval" actually means if they set the thing in the 17th century.

Would it not be more apt to be set the game in the 14th century? When the Black Death was actually occurring?

$20,000 in eleven days is doable. Let's hope they hit it, they have done a lot to earn it. :)
