Here Is My Job


Several
Non-Disclosure Agreements prohibit me from saying pretty much anything.

Work hums and throbs like a colony of ants toiling underground, darkness, muted conversation, the sharp rasp of a soda can being popped open.

That any kind of video game gets made, ever, is now completely mind-boggling to me. The sheer scope of the effort is hard to conceptualize. Hundreds, maybe thousands of man-hours each day.

This isn't Pyramid-type building, large blocks that require huge initial amounts of effort and then stay, for a very, very long time.

It's chaotic - small changes cause huge repercussions all across the board which then must be changed again which again causes repercussions, with all of the new repercussions being added to the list of things to change.

I'm having a blast.
