My OperaService and Lightworking
Sunday, December 26, 2010 4:23:03 AM
The reason I cared about service was because I decided to start pursuing the lightworker path.
The next game I released was Dweep, which was a bigger success than any games I released before that. My primary motivation was to make something creative that people would enjoy. I even gave it lowball pricing for the initial release (only $9.95), so more people could afford it. I just wanted to share something unique with the world. I let go of any concerns about success or money. I went back to my roots of what attracted me to game dev in the first place -- pure creativity.
I was dead broke when I started the game and had to scramble to pay my bills, but within a year I was doing fine financially. The game also won a few awards and got many positive reviews.
I really wasn't thinking about polarity at the time, but this was definitely a major shift for me. The shift in my thinking allowed me to create a better quality product.
I am a looney vegetarian, so it's good that people should abandon the site if they can't handle that. I wouldn't want people to get a false impression.
Really the only people who get upset by animal cruelty language are those who are on a path to going veg themselves, but they're still resisting it. They have a strong sense of compassion for animals, but they aren't ready to act on it yet, so they keep doing what they've always done. Sometimes they'll backlash against me for pushing their buttons, but such a reaction really has nothing to do with me. The button is theirs.
Die-hard meat eaters who are congruent in their beliefs don't get offended by such statements. They simply disregard them. Such people have pushed through to a more consistent philosophy, so they see no need to justify or defend eating animals. They just do it and aren't bothered by what others think.
The only people who are bothered are those who are incongruent to begin with.
My intention isn't to push people to go veg. I try to push people to become more congruent, regardless of which way they fall. When I see people settling for an unconscious, inherited choice, I like to push a few buttons to help them reconsider that choice consciously.
Actually I got some pretty strong results on the dark side for a while, including graduating college with 2 degrees in 3 semesters. That didn't provide a service for anyone but me.
Darkworkers generally don't harm people unless they consider it necessary. In my case it wasn't necessary. All I really had to do was break/ignore the school rules that got in my way. I doubt anyone cared.
Be careful about confusing effect with intent.
