Tags: Chris Avellone
Chris Avellone was once again a speaker at the annual Sweden Game Conference this year. That was back in October, and today they finally got around to uploading a video of his talk to their YouTube channel. Entitled "Cautionary Tales and (More) Design Lessons Learned", the talk is essentially a stream of random game development and project management advice, structured as a kind of word association exercise. It's impossible to summarize, but makes for a fast-paced and entertaining watch:
There's no new information about the games Chris is working on here, nor is there much of the implied drama we may have been conditioned to expect from him, but with a close watch one might be able to pick up some hints. For example, judging by the repeated references to SHODAN, it seems like that as of October, the game that was most on Chris' mind was the System Shock remake.
