Thinking about when I demoed To a T in December. I turned to Keita Takahashi and said that I love that he's so committed to making oddball games that go off the beaten path and asked what draws him to that philosophy.

I really love that "succeeding in finishing an authored experience designed to be finished and enjoyed" is such a marker of resilience and character. I'm going to eat a meal at a high-end restaurant and call myself a survivalist.

Do you know what never fails to improve my mood? Talking to someone really smart about a thing they know really well, and learning about that thing from them.

I'll remember this email my entire life.

So I read this, and as someone who's spent their entire career in the trenches of "how do we keep the tension between Good Guys and Bad Guys interesting," I have Some Thoughts www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-news/v...

Kind of interesting that both Vince Gilligan and Raphael Bob-Waksberg have shown regret for their characters' influences. I wonder if we're likely to see a shift in fashion to more clearly morally upright characters?

This is interesting, the writer of Breaking Bad calls for more positive characters in TV fiction, after realising Walter White is often misunderstood by fans as an aspirational, badass icon rather than an obvious monster www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-news/v...
