Hey there! I’ve started playing and am really enjoying it so far. I was wondering how you went about getting heavyweights like Cissy Jones and Yuri Lowenthal involved, and how you found the directing voice actors process? :)

Genuine question: this year's GDC was my first, and it was amazing. Having a chance to meet a bunch of the people I'd only read about was an incredible experience. Who is your favourite game designer, and what was it like when you first met them?

Hey Veronica,
This might sound like a ridiculous question, but it's deeper than it appears - promise.
Why do you play video games?
I'd argue it can't be for the stories - you can find better, more engrossing and more epic stories in other media, such as books. I'd also argue it can't be for cinematographic purposes - films, be they real-world or CGI surely eclipse video games on that front. So: why? I recently asked Jeff Cannata this question, and his response was that he could play in an author's world for a while; personally, I don't even really know why I play games. I think it's partially to do with the interactivity and agency I have on the world, but there's something deeper I can't quite seem to put my finger on.
Anyway, good luck with the AMA! :)
