You just listed the typical design interview questions I use.

Bobson Dugnutt.

The Dugnutts have always been in baseball. Except for my father Bob, who was an accountant and who did not allow me to play until I was 21.

Been hitting home runs and balancing the books ever since

“Is there air?? You don’t know!”

Ga de vertrouwde blik op Ajax missen. Bedankt voor alles.

I love it when the office is quiet and always think I will catch up on some overdue stuff but end up just working on stuff I like working on for myself

Ik snap niet dat ex-spelers niet in staat zijn het belang van een trainer, een plan, goede opvang en fysieke en mentale aspecten te kunnen inschatten.

Daarnaast wordt ook makkelijk vergeten hoezeer je met nagenoeg dezelfde spelers anders kunt voetballen. Zie Slot of Bosz

Part of that is a “factory” or more cynical mindset of trend chasing. Part of it is people becoming good at their craft by making things (that aren’t good yet).

Absolutely deserved. Great coverage of topics that need more spotlight.

Can I ask why no shipping to Europe? I would gladly pay for shipping

Well, I like artisanal vs factory much better as a spectrum than indie vs AAA. Its more representative of a mindset rather than arbitrary definition

I like the analogy, but “indie” does not automatically mean artisanal for me I think.

At the risk of showing my ignorance about the complexity of chair making, I think a game is more complex. And has many more parts it will be judged on.

I agree. But I think there is a problem with the perceived value. An artisanal chair has tasteful design, amazing materials, excellent build quality and a story behind it that all contribute to its value. It is not competing on “scope”.

Just thinking out loud here

Thank you! And I agree. Great game

I understand the sentiment. However in most fields, artisanal is a quality aimed at a smaller, discerning audience. And in the case of say a chair, I can buy one artisanal chair, or get a set of four with a table and lamp for the same price. The perceived value is different.
