  An old-school internet person with the mind of a programmer dork and the soul of a twitter marxist.

  Seems like an internet intellectual suffering from paradigm cancer of the postmodern kind.

  So, is it bad that I agree with a few of the things he has said regarding game design in the linked article?

  OOOooooOoOoOOoo, I'm a ghoOooOooOOOost!

  Nah. From what I skimmed, it's pretty standard as far as opinions on Oblivion go.

  "I'm lost, like you once were. I'm still searching for meaning and belonging, I'm still struggling with how to be conscious and human in the 21st century and not go insane, and I'm not making any progress. I don't know the answer, but I do know this: the New Sincerity ain't it."

  
  

  1)Deconstruct grand narratives just to replace them with the grand narrative of postmodern ennui; seek out fad-justifying sophistry because you don't want to be an ivory tower snob, in spite of how entry-level that nonsense is

  
  

  2)Sprinkle your writing with patronizing disclaimers, SJW101 and overdramatic pathos since you already feel the spectre of the priviliged neckbeard you feared you were or will become bashing his keyboard

  
  

  3)Interlink plenty because heaven forbid you ever have inconsistent thoughts

  
  

  It's almost an exercise in masochism.
