    There's one mistake about that talk:
    It should not just apply to video games. It should apply to every company.

    This is an amazing talk and a useful reminder. Designers always benefit from active listening. Being able to understand different visions and the "why" of a certain feedback is so important to make a better game, and have a more happy and engaged team. Thanks Richard for an amazing talk!

    This talk is not just about designer - team interaction. It will apply to any kind of collaborative work that includes ideas, creativity and feedback loop any some sort. Very good talk.

  • @roserpens
    @roserpens 3 роки тому +1

    This applies to any product owner in any industry. If the team believes in the vision, then defending the vision is the same as defending the team. Also, anyone who thinks they can just order crafters to do things doesn't respect their craft and isn't asking for what they think they are asking for.

      By the way, it's good content but if you studied and done some researches for your company you know well the talk lacks to tell important things, their analysis of playtests and community responses is incomplete, they can't really see when something is good or not, it's a big aproximation when it's really easy to understand exactly what people want and what you should do , all you need is to just know how to properly filter feedback

    ubisoft is design wise bankrupt... this talk has no weight...

    • @Aosome23

      As a game developer in a small studio I've seen this happen.
      It's always difficult for me and anyone to admit when they are wrong.
      No one is always right. It's just how wrong you are. Experienced people are less wrong, and a newbe can be right sometimes.
      No one knows everything, you only know what you know.
      So the best thing you can do is listen, and maybe it'll expand your horizon and the worst thing that should happen is agree to disagree.
      This is why I enjoy listening to GDC talks even if I disagree with some of the topics

    • @johnleorid
      @johnleorid 3 роки тому +1

      Uhm .. is this really on the designers? I thought they have to tone down their ideas to make the stakeholders happy? Like Watch Dogs Legion .. a game where you can play everyone, a cool idea, but shallow execution because nothing else in the game supports the idea. So people who don't like this feature, can still play GTA Gangster in their game without thinking about it. Every character can perfectly sneak, use a weapon and so on. The idea itself was probably too risky but still interesting enough to implement.
      Feels like the designer had different intentions.
