    Was just watching Episode 13 of Double Fine's Backer documentary series for Broken Age and noticed pretty clearly a photo of Ryan on his desk.

    No Caption Provided

    Just a little something that caught my eye on a cold winter's night. I get really existential when I'm alone with my thoughts and seeing Ryan pop up kinda just makes me smile for a bit, a guy we all miss can still find little way to pop into our lives even for a moment.

    I think that is the button that was handed out at PAX Prime. That is awesome seeing him have one on his desk.

    You can always count on Tim to be a bro.

    I hope these docs become available to the public after the game comes out. I'd pay a fair bit extra if these were part of some special edition set.

    Still brings a tear to my eye to think about the great man we lost, but its great to see everyone remembering him in their own way.

    I'm not quite sure to what you're referring to so not sure how to respond? Is it that I wasn't interested in Broken Age or that you find it incredulous that I'd want to support Tim Schafer because I feel like he's a nice guy?

    The latter. Buying a game just because the developer is a nice guy and not for the game itself feels a little bit disingenuous to me.

    Well I'll probably buy it on Sale if that makes it less disingenuous for you. Then again I'll probably forget and change my mind later. As much as I really like the character design in Brutal Legend and think Schafer is a nice guy, not even the $2 Steam sales can get me to buy that game because I absolutely abhor Real Time Strategy, on a console no less.
