Lol, it's not about me vs. him.

He's the one who said remote couldn't work. I said it could and gave an example of a game I like that was made by a fully-remote team.

If the development experience that he is defending didn't yield any products that are as good as something that was made remotely, why should I take him seriously?

They were just pointing out the benefits of in office work for the industry (compared with benefits of remote no less), and you came out swinging, your example dripping with opinion and hostility, as well as a clear lack of personal experience.

It was entirely unnecessary and rude.

I wasn't trying to say you can't do remote development what I was trying to say was it's not a good way for the whole industry. That and pointing out drawbacks of full remote.
