Giant Bomb Presents: A Sobering Conversation About Mobile Gaming

Boy. This guy can TALK.

Amen. Publishing (books) has been headed down the exact same toilet for the last ten years. :(

Haha, yeah, he does go on a Bill Hicks-level rant, where it stops being that much of an interview, and is kinda just Meade goin' off on what he thinks of all the suits that make F2P games without caring whether they're fun or respect the player, and how they're ruining mobile gaming. I mean, he's right, but it makes for a weird interview.

I feel like this the interview where Patrick has been leading the discussion the least. My only problem was that instead of being sort of...instructive, or full of suggestions, like say Patrick's interviews with Rami Ismail, Meade just sounds really frustrated with things (rightfully so), and is mostly laments that all of the soulless games continue to get the most attention because they're at the top of the charts. I guess I kinda didn't walk away from the interview with anything I didn't already know.

Man that guys got a lot to say about stufff , i wonder if you guys can invite him to your next gdc / e3 podcast , im its going to be interesting seeing him talk about his ideas.

Instead of making these stupid wee cartoony dumbass games

Listening to podcast while drawing... cartoony dragonfly... for mobile game. D':

I do agree about being a PC gamer, trying to make games we would like, but for the mobile platform because it's more accessible for us developers to create for and publish on.

You ain't gonna get many wives playin' that game.

wtf.

Great interview Patrick! really insightful!

Man, this was a great interview.

Much like social media, mobile gaming is one of those super popular things that I'm very happy having nothing to do with. Also, get off my lawn.
