Recent industry trends I like

- Emergence of social network games.
- Cool new platforms. New platforms, such as the iPhone

Wow, and all this time I thought all the famous industry guys from the eighties and nineties were reduced to empty soulless husks working on Farmville clones and cell phone games by forces outside of their control. But it appears they actually like it.

About System Shock: "Nevertheless, if we could do it over I would have focused more on making the game more accessible and toning down some of the more demanding aspects of game play --- if only so that we had a better chance to commercially establish the franchise."

That's sadly the thing: we all rage about dumbing down, but it seems necessary in this age of fucktards if you want to survive, at least partly.

I think Paul is just in denial. That's why he makes sure to blow off talk about Thief 4.
