Re: why bgt dont continus
It's true that the internet makes working together over long distances more possible than ever. From what I can tell, though, having everyone in the same building still makes a huge difference, so long as they're not getting in each other's way (etc, distracting or stressful combinations of people and office layout).
Some of the grumbling coming out of game studios recently has me wondering about the idea of someone with an idea hiring people to do most of the work. See: the thing where someone (at Tale-Tale, I think?) got complaints for trying to control the contents of a game. It made it sound like everyone was expecting a collaboration, rather than something more like a movie, where the actors are there to act, and the director/producer don't have to let them ad lib or do anything creative if they don't like it. Granted, compare the Star Wars prequels to the first Pirates of the Caribbean to see what difference allowing actors to try their own ideas can make. Or, heck, just compare Attack of the Clones to The Empire Strikes Back. How do you know where the line should be for a particular project?
