The Games Press Episode 18: Quintin Smith (People Make Games)
🕑 Added 2024-03-06 15:52:49 +0000 UTCQuintin Smith is one third of People Make Games, although hopefully you already knew that. Outside of his work with us, he's also known as the co-founder of board games behemoth Shut Up & Sit Down and now, as of just a few weeks ago, he's started something brand new, exploring the world of TTRPGs. It's called Quinns Quest and it's extremely weird and good, just like Quinns.
"If you just go into a community going 'hey, I wanna understand why this is fun for you', people will tell you! People are able to explain their passions and once you know their passions, you can ask about those passions in more detail and once you've got that, you're able to understand the community. There are no weirdos."

Random unrelated question: have you thought about / are there downsides to giving a yearly subscription option? I've heard it's generally the same/a bit more income for creators and a smidge cheaper for patrons

Awesome interview. Love Quinns, and been into RPGs lately, so I jumped on the QQ patreon before I finished watching the first episode.

Brilliant stuff. So Chris is a journalist and Quinns is an ethnographer? Sounds about right.

My mind is blown! How the heck did you film that awesome video only on an iPhone?

Huh? Quinns has already covered splorts‽
