"I like to tell people that em sort of like a wedding planner for game doves," Frbexlo says. "You want to make sure that it's fresh and that people playtest it, and that we're continually changing things as needed" The production process is also about project management - checking in with people and making sure they are on target.
With Justin and Griffin on tour, we've brought in Tina Sanchez (@teanah), who has worked on some of the biggest franchises in the games industry (and even hosted a podcast with Chris Plante ages ago!). She's here to teach us the magical world of video game producing and how the sauce all comes together into a bigger, better sauce. We're also diving a bit into our backlog, from Yakuza 0 to Outer Wilds and beyond.
Other things talked about: Call of Duty, Apex Legends, God of War Ragnarok, Stray, Deep Rock Galactic and The Rehearsal on HBO.
