I don't know why Jonathan was happy that day, but I just really liked the detail that he gave to each answer. Also, thank you so much for asking personal stuff, I believe that gives more insight into someone's work/art.

I grew into Video Games, still miss the Joystick from the 80s

Doom Guy: Life in First Person by John Romero was a good supplement to Masters of Doom. I'd read MoD several times before DG, and I still learned a lot of info from it. It also gives a different perspective on many events described in MoD.

Blood, Sweat and Pixels/anything by Jason Scheier, Control Freak (Biopic) by Cliff Bleszinski, Jacked: The Outlaw Story of GTA by David Kushner, Rogue Leaders (LucasArt) by Rob Smith

ich habe mit Game Design/KI nichts am Hut, dennoch fühle ich mich klüger als zuvor.

...PONG!

My first video game was Pong. Yes I am old…

I'm not sure which one was my first, Bio Menace, Commander Keen or Prince of Persia.

i grew up with the Sinclair and Commodore C64 before switching later to 286 PC's (DOS) On PC's Prince of Persia and Lost Vikings were my first favorites.

First game might have been “Mixed Up Mother Goose Deluxe” (1995)

My first Videogames were i completed was "Lost Vikings"

Not sure anymore, probably Pac Man

Mine was something that would show letters and numbers on the screen and I was supposed to press the corresponding key on the keyboard. As someone who is far-sighted, I wonder if I would have still started playing if I had been born into today's more mobile-focused generation.

My first Videogames were "Jupiter Lander" and "Rudi the Rat" on Datasette for Comodore 64. 😄

What was the first game you played?

Damn bro Jonathan Blow the antivaxxer 43:00. Yikes

Too much programming is definitely sharpen you skill, but from while to while you need to to have a long vacation just to avoid burnout.

Hahaha she likes him

Can recommend "Masters of Doom" about the makers of Doom, "Explore / Create" by Richard Garriott (Ultima RPGs), "Not all fairy tales have happy endings" from Ken Williams (Sierra) & "Blood, sweat & Pixels" by Jason Schreier. As a bit of sidedish :) I would also like to recommend: "Creativity" by John Cleese (how creativity works) & "Creativity Inc." by Ed Catmul about the origins of Pixar - both not about Games, but likeminded-topics :)

Sid Meier's Memoir is on my reading list, I plan to read it soon! :) I personally loved "Doom Guy" the autobiography of John Romero. I love how after so many years he is still as enthusiastic about game dev as he was in the 80's! He delves into all his experiences, the good ( Wolfenstein, Doom) and the bad (Daikatana), and talks also about his lesser known recent projects!

Tiny Lecture hype!

Welche andere Themen für Tiny Lectures wären für euch spannend?

wow amazing what he said at 2:34:00 about making mistakes, very few people have that mindset for sure and it shouldn't be !

Great interview. I find Jonathan is always worth paying attention too, even when I find myself challenged by some of his stuff. Thank you for sharing this.

Thanks two years later. I become a games developer at the age of 40 and had a very valuable time here listening.

Lieben Dank! Hier seh ich stets gern zu. :)

Interessantes Thema, sehr gut erklärt, angenehme Stimme. Danke dafür.

Sehr klar und angenehm erklärt.

Vielen Dank für den Vortrag, sehr interessant.

This is sad

Danke für die Infos! Jetzt hab ich wieder einiges zum Lesen (Korrektur: Noch mehr zum Lesen...) Huizinga, Callois oder Bernard Perron könnte man noch dazu lesen, wenn einer bissl mehr der philosophische Ansatz (Was ist eigentlich "spielen"?) interessiert, aber das ist vll wieder ein bissl weit weg von der Informatik. Looking forward to more!

Nächstes Thema etwas über PCG?

Danke für die Tiny Lecture! Im Stream bin ich erst zur Halbzeit dazugestoßen und hatte mir schon notiert, das VOD nachzuschauen :)

but what about when you act differently in different games?

Welchen Tiny Lecture Content wünscht ihr euch denn noch?

As for why people no longer want to get good at what they do... I think it also has to do with the widening wealth gap and increasing resentment in the working class. People don't feel like they are regarded as contributing to society or to the reputation of the nation; they feel like they are regarded as the wage-slaves of billionaires. People aren't going to spend another 10-20 hours/week outside of work studying and improving when this effort will never be recognized or rewarded. Companies will just take and take and take from you, and string you along, and laugh at what a gullible idiot you are if you do free work for the company. Like Kevin Spacey in Horrible Bosses.

Thanks for this great conversation

2:06:08 That is not what impostor syndrome is. impostor syndrome is not about being an impostor without realizing, its about thinking you are an impostor when you actually aren't; Impostor syndrome is when you are good/successful, but you think that you are only good or successful because you are lucky or because others just haven't "caught on yet" or something. What jon describes is closer to some form of the DK effect, but where the person is somehow cognizant of that fact.

Great interview, thank you for sharing.

1:45:50 Would you really not be you? I mean, there are certainly events that do change you. But many don't. And many are just needless suffering.

❤️

I wasn't familiar with "contact improvisational dance" at 01:55:00 and for those in the same boat as me, it looks like realtime Twister in the 4th dimension.

Can't believe I just stumbled across this now. Wasn't previously familiar with Johanna's work but her questions were awesome and Jonathan's answers (as expected) were extremely insightful. Thanks for making this!

This is a really good video! Thanks.

One of the things I really admire about Jonathon Blow is that he understands the reality of not over planning every detail of game development because it completely bogs down the process of moving forward. He Clearly understands that Creativity is an Iterative process, and that making great product is not necessarily "always good for business" in the near future. It's about making a great game. On the other hand, I am still waiting on JAI, so, I would really appreciate some forward motion there.

omg pirker makes me perky
