    Jonathan Blow can fit an awful lot of antivax, conspiracy theories and transphobic ranting into a 15hr commentary.

      He’s fallen into the trap of thinking his undeniable game dev genius makes him qualified to speak on other topics he has only a vague understanding of.

      Many highly intelligent people make this mistake. John Carmack’s tirade against music notation is a topical example.

        I’m with you. The Witness is still quite possibly my favorite game of all time. One of the few I wish I could wipe from my memory and play again, fresh.

          Exactly. I wish someone had told me not to look up answers. I ruined so many ah-hah moments (fortunately not the moment). There’s so much bad advice online about how to approach the game. For anyone reading this who hasn’t played it:

          • DO NOT browse any related online communities
          • DO NOT look up answers
          • DO NOT start a new game until you’ve reached the credit scroll

          You’ll thank me afterwards
