Ron Gilbert audio interview

[A Black Falcon]

He definitely knows what he's talking about, which is why the interview is so interesting... he exaggerates a bit at times, but oh well, the points are still perfectly valid. But as he says, some of these things can't be helped... there is no way right now to have it so independant developers can make products just as good as major companies, unlike, as he says, the movie industry. At this point in technology, it just can't happen... but still, that's no excuse for the lack of good ideas he cites.
