Seriously i hate the new lazy font redesign of logos. Sure its easier to reproduce but its so damn soulless

It's phone font. Everything must be scalable, monospaced, and san serif for maximum readability on a digital screen.

I don't think it's the resolutions, I think it's that they're too damn small.

The smart phone is my singular most hated piece of technology that we've created so far.

Social media/dating apps are worse. They are the real cancer to society.

Tbf, none of them really became entrenched in society until they had apps on smartphones with the perk that most of their userbase was glued to their account 24/7 with instant gratification via push notifications on a device that was rarely more than 2 or 3 feet away.

One could argue smartphones actually killed myspace, or was at least the final nail in the coffin, but facebook was bland af and soulless from the beginning and easily adapted its boring UI to smartphone users.

Same with eHarmony other older dating sites vs all the swipe right/left dating apps.

Exactly. None of those things were really a problem until you remove the opportunity cost of having to sit down at a computer to login.

Now we have a whole society of heroin addicts and everyone's just walking around as if nothing is wrong.

Same with image files. Everything MUST be .webp, .avif or .heic, and the especially annoying part is many big websites have automated scripts which still show the images as their original file format, but save as .webp if you try to right-click them.

.webp has extremely limited support in a lot of image and video editing tools, and for the other two don't even bother. I have an extension that auto-converts them to .jpg or .png but the point is I shouldn't have to. The point of .webp's existence was for turdworlders whose internet speed is slower than the shit in their rivers. Any perceived performance or file size gain is negligible in this day and age if you live in a civilized country.

When I right-click on a funny meme to save it, I expect it to give me a .jpg. Anything less is barbarism.

Corporatism is just as soul-crushing as brutalism. It's the philosophy that turned all fast food places into beige boxes.

Fast food companies aren't in the business of food, they're in the business of real estate. Beige boxes are easier to sell if a location goes bust.

Bland, neutral, uninspired. Fades into the background, nothing to catch the attention or the eye. Christ, these retards.

Logo or a trademark symbol? Lol what a joke, they don’t even try to do something cool with it.

With how nondescript the "logo" is, some lawyer could seriously argue that it's not a trademark at all.

Especially when their company name is just a description of what they do.

It is almost like trying to trademark "General Store"

That's not even a logo. It's just their name in basic text followed by a smaller 'TM'. What's the point of simplifying what was already a very simple logo? Are they going to go the same way as Dunkin' Doughnuts and rebrand themselves as simply 'Games'?

Ta-da!

Not a GW salary for creating a logo? What a load of crap. Just like the new logo.

It's so easy to make a better logo.

Keep the simple font, black square around the w, the w letter in white, white square around the g, corners of the squares touching like a chessboard and both letters having a crown like a king and queen. So fkn easy.

Tzeentch himself must be the one behind Minimalist Logos. He's telling graphic designers "You're brand is iconic and recognizable. You've outgrown your logo having personality"

Nope, this is planned. These greedy fucks, and I shit you not, will try to copyright claim ,the font, the word "Games, the word "Workshop", if they are ever used in all caps and black and white type heading. And they were like this long before the woke shit started.

The irony peaks when you realize that games workshop got famous by grabbing a bunch of other peoples sci-fi ideas and blending them with their own. These days that'd get you sued five ways from sunday.

I definitely prefer their Pacman style logo. That implies that they are a company that, Workshops Games. Now it looks like every single other company with a redesigned logo.
