    • @Unknown-ek1ox
      @Unknown-ek1ox 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +5

      It speaks for the level of quality and care if they clearly overlook this illogical thing that everyone else notices right away. They didn't bother to either remove it or briefly show the zombie struggling with and giving up or managing to pull it off, nor did they bother to imply the zombie was just dumb enough and trying to fruitlessly eat while the mask was on, which they could've done so with clever camera angles, blood on the mask and animations implying that.
      No, they just literally used a random model and standard eating animation, not giving a crap.

    As a software developer I got interviewed for a position by Tencent's lead developer for mobile games. They asked me to introduce myself and after I was done doing so (of course I embellished my achievements/roles a bit)
    The guy told me "You know I have more experience than you and was managing a whole team at Ubisoft and you shouldn't show off your skills." The funny thing is I wanted to get into the gaming industry so bad that I was taking a pay cut for the job but after that I never even tried. With this sort of toxicity and insecurity at top levels no wonder their games are shit.

Tencent's mistake was doing something, anything with a celebrity that wanted his name on a game but would not know a game if it bit him in the backside.
