I sent Tom Chick my email on January 1st, and I'm still waiting! It's especially frustrating watching the discussion of Dragon Age marketing.
Actually it is probably for the best right now. I would just tell them that Gaider replied to me and all but said my principles are so loosely held that I would forget all about the "new shit" when they showed me some future, shiny trailer. For someone who makes a living writing, he didn't really seem able to comprehend my point at all.
wot is this?
i have no idea what's going on but it sounds interesting
Haha, didn't know there were some people here on the Qt3 forums as well. I basically waited, sent off an email saying I wasn't a gaming journo or anyone in the industry, but I just loved the discussion and the community and someday I wanted to be in the industry myself, or something like that. I think I got aceepted about a week later or something.

For those of you not really into the industry part of video games, it's David Gaider from BioWare, and he's working on Dragon Age. And if you loved/hated KOTOR, you can thank/curse him for that as well.

Ah, that makes a little more sense now. Thanks for the background info.
Wait, so are you saying you got a job writing for a gaming website? Or are you working for a games company? Or are you just accepted into the beta for the game? I am 100% confuzzled.

It's a games industry forum. QuarterToThree, look it up. Lots of people in the industry, gaming journos are all there. I remember when Popcap's dude was on there and talking about how PvZ was no strategy game.

Oh, I see. That's pretty neat.
