@Jonathan_Blow I like your number one beef from that CC interview. As a member of the younger gen of game makers myself it's something I'm only just getting through / over.
I was definitely thinking about GDC circa 2009-2015 when I was saying that (though it still goes today). I want to come up with a better way to describe what I mean there, to make the point stronger. Feeling good about making games is fine, but it's not the job description...

Oh, I see what you mean. returning to main thread

Damn. That's basically all the GDCs I went to. I ended up feeling good and not making much after ssp... which I don't blame on that but it's interesting to kind of hold up those facts next to what you said in the interview. I'm also trying to think of a better way to describe it.
Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

That's a somewhat incomplete account of the session; they said they will put up a video eventually, but I don't know how long that will take.

OK thanks for the heads up. Will keep an eye out.
