ABOUT THIS EPISODE
IGF-nominated narrative designer Xalavier Nelson Jr. creates a morally-complex world with human emotion at the core of every scenario, where the individuals outside your squad matter as much as the rangers you deploy on each map.
We discuss:
- How too much narrative can be detrimental to the game
- Pre-production is one of the most important part of development
- Make time for your health: spending time with loves one, exercise, eating right
- Spend less time making your games so you can start early on building your foundation
