In the third and final part of their interview on the Matt Barton Show™, Serpent in the Staglands developers Joe & Hannah Williams talk about taking in player feedback, the importance of the game's documentation, the process of creating its lovely pixel art sprites, the advantages of the isometric perspective, and more. Lots of Codex references in this episode!

​

What an extraordinarily goofy interview this was. Perhaps Joe & Hannah remind Matt of his students?

Does Hannah know how to cook ?

Holy fuck, since when is J_C drinking beer at the end of each episode?

 

[LeStryfe79]

Most Matt chats end like that.

 

[ERYFKRAD]

EVERY Matt chat ends like that.

Does Hannah know how to cook ?

Hannah clearly cooks some mean code.

Hannah clearly cooks some mean code.

I think we're not too far away from the inappropriate comment threshold. Ninjerk's razor is nearly in effect.

Hannah clearly cooks some mean code.

I'm increasingly convinced that Hannah is the brains behind the operation while Whalenought_Joe is tasked with knowledge of textiles and appeasing nerds on the codex :D

 

[LeStryfe79]

Or maybe Joe is just a robot that Hannah programmed. That's it.

 

[J_C]

Holy fuck, since when is J_C drinking beer at the end of each episode?

Since forever.

I don't know what he's changed, but this has to be one of the best interviews I've seen Matt do. He's very relaxed throughout. Maybe he downed several valiums.

 

[LeStryfe79]

It was partly because he interviewed such great people. Those two are amazing, almost unrealistically so.

This is true.

When I started to do my Matt Chat show I wanted it promoted on there so I created a fake account on there and everything. I just made comments on there occasionally. I told them I was from another country. I really thought I had them completely fooled. The first time I started mentioning Matt Chatt, BAM! Outed!

:D

Respect for finally coming out J_C Matt.

Thanks for the link. Although it seems he's sending the transcribing duty overseas. So many errors. But nice to have that, so I can read at work.

Great interview. Kudos to Matt J_C for referencing The Codex. Looking forward to the game* and to the next Matt Chat (Pillars of Eternity review if I remember correctly?).

*after I finish The Witcher 3...

Are you suggesting what I think you're suggesting? How do we make them prove they're not robots?

Maybe Matt J_C could make another interview with them, this time live?

Wait, what? NO! That is not me, he probably made another account.

Or perhaps he is just fucking with you, which is even funnier.

Why would J_C fuck with himself?
