Description:

In this episode, host Dirk Knemeyer is joined by co-host David Heron to answer a series of deep dives from their community. The discussion explores the technical and philosophical underpinnings of game creation, ranging from the "Wild West" of QA processes to the evolving landscape of global publishing.

The duo discusses why mimicking video games might actually be making your tabletop combat feel slow and uninteresting, the "heartbreaking" reality of survivor bias in digital publishing, and why educational games must prioritize fun to survive the scrutiny of "hyper-literate" young players who are used to the polish of modern hits.
