How You Play the Game
It's not whether you win or lose, its how you play the game. I've been thinking a lot about this saying. The older I get, the more real it becomes for me. My last five years at Electronic Arts has indeed taught me a lot about winning and losing, Getting things right and getting it wrong. More importantly, I've come to truly appreciate the people I work with who epitomize collaboration, hard work, open minds, and positive attitudes. Just about any problem we have is solvable with the people I work with every day.
There are hundreds more like this that I have worked with over the past few decades. People that most gamers will never hear about, but who shape many of the things we do best.
I want to do a show about them. Not necessarily about the games, or the revenue, or about platforms - but the people in the industry. I want to hear their stories. How they got into the business. What motivates and inspires them. What they do - and how did they get good at it? What keeps them up at night / and what gets them up early in the morning? I want to know how they play the game.
I've signed myself up to do 50 episodes and interviews. I think it will be fascinating. I hope so! If not, there will still be a sizable amount of history recorded - and that will always be a win in my book.
Thanks for joining me on this journey!
Best,
Chris
