I really enjoyed the whole conversation, but I LOVE that we got a detailed behind the scenes look. I would’ve never thought about those editor tools. Seeing a professional workflow in this way is really cool and helpful

I love the art style for this game; it definitely looks like a detailed Renaissance oil painting.

Probably my favorite game developer/designer today, and he's pretty much brilliant in that lane. Wish we had more like him today, but that's not what we're incentivizing.

I absolutely fucking love this guy. The more I hear him talk the more I love him. He's like "The Dude" of game dev, but like "The Dude" is on a warpath of awesome.
