Will repeat what others have said to proudly state that this was awesome, a super enjoyable conversation, and I can’t wait for a follow up after Judas’s release, thank you Colin! And thanks to Ken Levine!

2023-05-24 06:13:14 +0000 UTCThis was awesome, definitely love hearing from the game directors themselves. As an idea for another good conversation id recommend checking out Andrew Klavan. He's an older political/cultural commentator, but has some interesting thoughts on when games are art and when they fall short of the mark. I think it'd be a great conversation to listen to! His recent video on Mario especially was interesting.

2023-05-22 02:55:40 +0000 UTCI am so excited for Judas. Despite the rough development of Bioshock Infinite and the cut content from early demos it is one of my favorite games ever made
Walker Simmons
2023-05-22 00:22:10 +0000 UTCAmazing interview Colin. Congrats on one of the best pieces of content LSM has produced to date. Interviews like this are why LSM is a cut above literally anything else out there

Maxx Lazos
2023-05-20 15:47:14 +0000 UTCColin seemed very desperate to get his analysis/praise of the audio logs as a game design choice validated. He brought it up 3 separate times! Curious how he felt about that when finally in the 3rd instance, Ken revealed that it's from the System Shock games.

Connor Galbraith
2023-05-19 14:02:57 +0000 UTCWill you release the "full"/the rest of it after release of his game?

2023-05-19 06:26:17 +0000 UTCColin mother fucking Moriarty ! Have to acknowledge this legendary moment as a long time fan of both Ken Levine’s work and the BEYOND days. Thank you Ken for your openness & transparency to share your journey with us, FANS !! You deserve all the praise and your voice in this industry does not go unnoticed. Just turned 30 last week & Bioshock is one of my favorite games of all time and I absolutely cannot wait for Judas🔥!!

2023-05-19 00:02:19 +0000 UTCI really l, really enjoyed this interview. Very thoughtful questions from Colin and insightful answers from Ken. This is the content I live for. Thank you LSM!

2023-05-18 22:59:06 +0000 UTCThis was so fantastic! Happy to have heard Colin said Ken will return, I'm definitely looking forward to that.

2023-05-18 22:01:27 +0000 UTCAwesome..
Matthew Cooper
2023-05-18 20:03:52 +0000 UTCI was also a drama major in university. Ken talking about the character work that is supported by the soliloquies that are audio logs immediately took me back to better days of discussing games as performance with one of my favourite professors. When/if this interview goes to public feeds I will definitely be sharing with him as games were always very prevalent in his research projects and I think he would appreciate it!

Mr. Plow
2023-05-18 13:55:25 +0000 UTCI love how Levine is so insistent that his games pass through so much playtesting. He could teach Microsoft a thing or two, if the reaction to something like Redfall is anything to go off of.
Evan Westendorf
2023-05-18 13:23:19 +0000 UTCThis was an incredible interview, thank you Colin for setting this up! Ken is such a fascinating creater and it's a blessing to hear from him after so long.

2023-05-18 03:06:40 +0000 UTCMan this was a fantastic and really personal interview from Ken. What a good man! I am happy he moved past his issues during Infinite. And of course another common W of an interview from the LI Viper! Cheers!

Dillon Brown
2023-05-18 01:43:05 +0000 UTCThis was inspiring and got me at the right time. I liked how real he was especially how he talked about changing career course at 27. It was nice to get perspective that 27 is not too old for a life change. Rest of the interview was very insightful too!

2023-05-17 19:33:17 +0000 UTCBioshock is my favorite game of all time, so this was very special to me. Thank you so much Colin. You’re the doing the lords work out here.
Justin Credible
2023-05-17 18:55:31 +0000 UTCBROOOO. This was so fucking awesome. I don't think I've ever seen an interview this candid with a game dev. Hearing about Ken's mental health issues was heartbreaking but also super cathartic. I could have listened to another 10 hours of this convo. Hats off to you and Ken.
