Randy Pitchford is quickly becoming one of the more annoying personalities in video gaming industry, Following CliffyB and Peter Molyneux. Gamasutra has a long 10 page interview (cheap way to get page views….) with Randy Pitchford, CEO of Gearbox Software. Here’s a snip:
Burnout is a problem, and it can happen to anybody. Even in our studio, we’ve crunched. We care a lot about the results. Sometimes there’s the reality of, “Wow, we’re landing and we really want to make this better,” and we’re all working really hard to do that.
And sometimes, it’s really interesting how people are. We’re not saving the world. We’re making video games. But we tend to take a lot of pressure on ourselves, because we all want to do a good job. For some people, that’s a real problem, so things like burnout and disillusionment can happen.
It’s important that we try and remember why we’re doing it, and get back to playing games. Play the games and try to find ways that we can enjoy the process of making them.
