This is a case of “learn from mistakes” more than anything else. Splash Damage doesn’t have an impressive track record. Does he focus on his mistakes ?

In any case, I don’t think Paul Wedgewood is an authority in game development. I’d rather learn from someone else. I’m starting to think his successes belong in the same category as broken clocks showing the correct hour twice a day.

Well, they must be doing something right (even if it’s not right all the time), since instead of being one of the studios that has to close down or let large number of staff go, they seem to be doing well and growing ;).

ET and ETQW were not just impressive, they were impressive as ****.
And on both of those, id was behind.

Makes you think, eh?
