Transformers: Mosaic #613 - "Master Spy"

Later revised and annotated for Transformers: The Lost Seasons

wada sez: Goldbug’s design for this comic (see below for that and the clean pencils) was created by Seb, but was given a different color scheme by Ibai Canales—apparently at one point in this strip’s production, Goldbug would still have been named “Bumblebee”. Anyway, the end result is a body that looks a lot like Beast Wars Waspinator’s Fox Kids redeco, but the specific resemblance in the color scheme could just be coincidence. The return of a G1 character for Beast Wars is naturally inspired by Ravage’s return in the cartoon. Spy vs. Spy is a classic comic strip.

Rupert Murdoch and Bill Shine created the Fox Shadow Cabinet #DarkState  #ShadowGovernment

Listen to Terry Gross’s interview with Jane Mayer. Mayer wrote the New Yorker article, "The Making of the Fox News White House,"

"Some of the people who are still hosting shows on Fox are seen by many of the people who are in and around the White House — including some of the White House staff — as basically being a 'shadow cabinet.' ", Jane Mayer

Interview Highlights

Trump tried to order the Justice Department to file a lawsuit to stop AT&T from acquiring Time Warner

Trump: "Block that deal. I want it blocked. I've told you 50 times. We need to get that suit filed."

Gary Cohn told John Kelly:  "Don't you dare do that. This is not how we're going to do business."

On how White House communication has changed under Bill Shine #Orwellian  #TrumpStateTV

In July 2018, former Fox News co-President Bill Shine joined the White House staff as deputy chief of staff for communications and assistant to President Trump.

Sarah "Goebbels“ Sanders  #FakeNews

Sarah Huckabee Sanders has pretty much shut down most of the daily briefings for the press, and that instead, she started appearing quite frequently on Fox News, where she gets softball questions. So a number of Trump administration officials, including Sanders, have started popping up on Fox News rather than being available to the press corps at large .

Hannity the Trump Whisper  #HouseOfLies

“Sean Hannity has now had something like 44 interviews with President Trump himself. That's in comparison with just 10 combined for all the other television networks. And CNN, which President Trump doesn't like, has been given no interviews.”

Other Highlights

On what that story shows about the Trump White House's relationship to Fox News

On how Fox News had the Stormy Daniels story before the election — and killed it

On reporting that Trump was tipped off about Fox News host Megyn Kelly's question before the Republican presidential debate in August 2015

What Can Indie Developers Learn from AAA Historical Games?

The Gamer 

While there are some advantages to being an independent game developer, with additional creative freedom and full independence from publishing companies, there are also many downsides. The biggest is funding, as indie game studios tend to have far smaller budgets. Major gaming developers are funded by wealthy publishers, with sometimes incredibly high budgets. 

But perhaps the biggest advantage that AAA studios have over indie developers is the fact that that can afford to make mistakes. Publishers like EA and Activision can afford for their developers to have a few hits and misses every now and then, and often bounce back from unsuccessful games. Indie studios, however, are far less likely to bounce back from failed games, and, as a result, there is far more at stake for them as a business. Because they’re often more at risk, indie studios should learn from major developers and their many mistakes that they’ve made; here are a few things that they could learn from major developers and their AAA historically based games.

Don’t Rush

Darkstation 

One of the first things that any business owner should learn, whether developing a video game or not, is to take their time. Deadlines are sometimes an unavoidable thing, but it’s important to remember that developers need to set realistic goals for their games and not try to race to the finish. Far too often, game developers and publishers rush out titles in order to meet a holiday release date only for the product to come out half-baked and a shadow of its true potential. 

Though most Call of Duty games in recent memory have come out fairly decent, not every entry into the series has been as fortunate. Call of Duty: Black Ops Declassified, which released back in 2012 for the PS Vita, is one example of a historically based video game that came out horribly wrong thanks to insufficient development time and a rushed release date. Indie developers need to learn from these mistakes to ensure that their product gets enough development time in order to become the game that they want it to be. As the famed Shigeru Miyamoto once said, “A delayed game is eventually good, but a rushed game is forever bad.”

Do Your Research

GQ 

Another incredibly important lesson to be learned from major developers is to do the necessary research when developing a historical video game. Many historical video games lack much historical depth, and result in feeling a bit shallow. This is a huge point, as many fans of historical games enjoy them because of all of their rich details and historical relevance. When developers don’t do the proper amount of research for their games, it shows. Franchises like Civilization and Total War are filled to the brim with details and obviously took a huge amount of research by the developers. Indie developers should learn from these great games and do the same when creating their own games based on historical events.

Take Creative Liberties Occasionally

Dexerto 

At the end of the day, it’s also good to remember that you’re creating a game -- and games are meant to be fun. Video games rooted within history, just like films and books, can sometimes stray from the facts every now and then. If it makes the game more enjoyable to play, then it’s perfectly fine for your game to not be 100% historically accurate, so long as it still shows that history respect.

We all know that mythical creatures and monsters aren’t real, but Assassin’s Creed Valhalla included them because they make the world more exciting to explore. At the same time, women weren’t widely prominent as soldiers on the front lines of World War II, but Battlefield V included them in order to allow players to better customize their characters and add more diversity into the game. Maybe most importantly to remember about this is that you won’t appease everyone. No matter the liberty you take, regardless of how big or small, you’re going to upset someone.

These are just a few lessons that indie developers could learn from AAA historical games, as it’s clear as what has and has not worked out well for major game studios when developing these historical video games.

wada sez: This strip creates a connection between warrior swordsman Dinobot, and Bludgeon, master of Metallikato. Curiously, Bludgeon is drawn based on his Revenge of the Fallen design, but Dinobot seems to have eschewed his Timelines figure in favor of an original three-windowed Cybertronian design.

In a last ditch effort of desperation, Karen Handel, Republican candidate for Georgia’s 6th Congressional District, turns to a dark state alt-right publication with ties to Steve Bannon that caters to neo-Nazis, KKK, and white supremacists. They are known for their ultra conservative views and fake news. They have lost 90% of their advertisers in a 2 month period according to this Washington Post article.

Handel is opposed by Democrat Jon Ossoff. Ossoff supports a livable minimum wage while Handel has said “I do not support a liveable wage”. Ossoff has been running a campaign mainly on promoting fair wages with protections for business , economic development, education, protecting consumers our environment and healthcare, voting rights and what is important to Georgia and the district he will be representing. Handel has been a leader in voter suppression tactics according to Better Georgia.

Ossoff has inspired a grass roots movement across the nation showing he has wide support not only for his policies that will benefit Georgia and his district, but also his stand against the oppressive and deceitful policies of the current administration, cabinet and the Republican Party. Handel has raised a lower amount of funds, originally mainly from local donations but her campaign has seen an influx of dark money from GOP Super PACS who have been running misleading and negative ads, the same types as those started by the Russian state run propaganda outlets and carried on by the Republican propaganda machine in the 2016 General and down ticket elections like the Paul Ryan Super PAC that used Russian hacked information that was altered. A pro-Trump non-profit political activist group has even been using altered sound bites from President Obama in negative radio ads. The current dweller of the White House has also been Tweeting untruthful statements against Ossoff.

#Ossoff stands for fair taxes for everyone and a bi-partisan healthcare plan. Handel supports Trump’s plan to drastically cut taxes for the wealthiest Americans which is how he can justify gutting our State Department, cutting consumer protections, cutting out environmental protections and gutting healthcare for women and children, the elderly, the low income Americans, and those on Medicaid which includes many of our Veterans. Handel supports the AHCA which so far has been a “failed before it even started” disaster. Trump even called the RyanCare House version of TrumpCare “mean” after saying how great it was. Now the “dirty dozen plus 1″ GOP Senate McConnell pack of jackals is trying to slap together another version and try to weasel it through without review and hearings. Handel supports repealing the ACA which will take healthcare away from millions of Americans.
