Status Updates From Kan, Ter ve Pikseller: Vide...

I remember when the release of Diablo III was engulfed in controversy surrounding the auction house, so it's cool to hear about the BTS of that mess plus how the developers decided to smash their Diablo idols and envision a new path forward that could be better for the series.

I assumed that depression and other personal aspects of everyday life would come into play in the making of Stardew Valley given that it was created by one person, but it's also so good to hear the end result, that he made millions on the game and is at least satisfied with that part of the game. I also appreciate how honest the book and the creator are with the time that was simply wasted at some points.

After reading about AA and AAA games like Pillars of Eternity and Uncharted 4, it's good to read the other end of the game dev spectrum with the story behind Stardew Valley's one-man team.

Though I know the polish and quality of Naughty Dog games is very high in general, hearing the crunch that they go through towards the end of any game development and how it's just understood that it will be a part of the cycle is disheartening.

As I was hoping, while I don't care much about the game Pillars of Eternity itself, the story behind its creation is fascinating. I'm expecting more stories of the same ilk throughout the rest of the book.
