"I don't have authoritative knowledge of this subject, but I'm going to speak authoritatively about it anyway." - the Josh Sawyer refrain

 

[rusty_shackleford]

but I don't see why his non-violent game couldn't also be historical.

Ever read a history book?

 

[vortex]

History is written in blood.
Josh: I want to make non-violent historical game.

 

[Efe]

I wonder if sawyer is playing mount and blade for research

Seems like they found at least one narrative designer

Has very minor experience previously as a narrative designer (on Tyranny), otherwise just Q&A role.

Edit:

They finally found their Animation Director as well:

Not really familiar with High Moon Studios work though.

I believe they have two currently. Jason Diaz and Long Nguyen.

Who else is #SkippingLunchForSawyer

[Sentinel]

I'm listening to The Queen's speech instead.

 

[Infinitron]

That was fun:



The talk is 46 minutes long, the rest is Q&A.

 

[Roguey]

How did he manage to be off by an entire 30 minutes?

 

[Infinitron]

Now on YouTube:

 

[Tom Selleck]

odd he posts about reputation overload when he has coasted on his for the last decade

 

[Ninjerk]

FYI for those looking for the cliff notes (I'm not typing them this time): he takes a big, fat shot at GDC between his speech and Q&A section.

 

[Eirinjas]

Tyranny also sold like shit.

Tyranny is hot garbage. Everything about it, from the shit skills and boring combat to the scatological feminist fantasia writing, is just awful. A pox on everyone who worked on it!

This was the original impression I got from when it was new, but lately there have been people running around saying good things about it and I'm really confused. I almost bought it (if I didn't in fact actually buy it).
