Could he really easily quit and go freelance, though? Most of his years in Obsidian, narrative-heavy games that need a lot of writers weren't really much of a thing. It was all either dudebro cover-based shooters or 3rd person action-adventure games.

It's only couple of years ago when narrative games exploded on the market and studios started seriously caring about storylines and writing and companions and all that stuff.

MCA is married, working from home... the struggle is real

His Italian wife makes him a lot of good food...
You don't get that fat from good food! I eat good food and rarely move from the armchair,i gain no more than 5 kilograms per year. You get that fat from nerves and poor food. From the conference he looked like he could be ether fat or buffed.

He just got married though. Chris reminds me of the average bachelor who doesn't properly feed himself, so once he gets married (to an Italian especially) he packs on the pounds.

Also, he looks like a fairly short guy, especially thanks to the unflattering angles we got to see him at. 10kg on him (I'm estimating he's 170cm) is a lot.

Chris needs work - life :balance:. He's prolly non-stop working at home(as he said that one time), he needs to have a outdoor hobby; I'm sure Josh could lend him a stronk bike if he asks.

Nerves? The man who can just kick back and chill for the next 200 years if he wants to probably isn't too troubled by nerves

Takes some nerve to post on the codex though. Bet you he looks at GD every now and then.

I take it that you have never met a woman in your life,especially an Italian woman. If you sit at home and "chill" with a woman around,you will go insane in no time. Why do you think that MCA got job so fast?

Our Master just avoided death


Oh damn, its worse than I thought. He's clearly being held hostage by the fucking MAFIA! And forced to work on as many games as possible. When he finally had enough and confronted them, shots literally fired and they made him tweet it that it was an accident with the neighbor for police not to investigate, damn.

Hold on Chris! We'll alert the authorities!

And by "we" I mean those good samaritans who live in 'murica and happened to come to this obvious conclusion as I did.
