"I’ve been involved with or have watched other games that were on a track to possibly be a good game, slowly get churned into a giant steaming piece of crap through no fault of the people directly working on it."

"I didn’t feel like I was being “heard” creatively. It was a dangerous place to be in and my career could have been over right there. But then, like a bolt from the blue, it hit me..."

Interesting piece for those interested. I find it somewhat disturbing/revealing in how he views his position and the limitations he finds himself in and how many others are in exactly the same position in this industry.

I get the impression that guy could give ShootMyMonkey a run for his money in the "Developers, whats the craziest..." thread.
