This is just a few thoughts I had while out with my wife today. I’m not going to post this on 6312 Production’s Myspace because it’s a bit too personal and I feel it would interfere with the company’s image.

So through the few weeks we've been planning, writing, and working on Kingdom Come, I've realized that gaming theory is something that one gains through experience, not reading books about it or hearing stories. It's just like someone who joins the military as a sniper: they might be able to shoot accurately, but hitting a target the size of a dinner plate at 2 miles away isn't something you learn by reading, you learn it by living it. Learning how to make a game that appeals to an audience is ...
