About
Everyone has opinions about games, but few people stop to ask what's actually going on underneath. Why do some companies nail it once and never again? Why do monopolies form that nobody can touch? Why do billion-dollar corporations keep making the same mistakes? This channel is about pulling back the curtain on the gaming industry; the decisions, the timing, the culture, and the luck that separates legends from cautionary tales.
