Post interesting talks / presentations / conferences

This John Romero talk is different from the Doom's postmortem, although of course some information recurs. It's more like Masters of Doom in condensed form and more technical. Interesting for the "id Software development principles" John explains

This one is also interesting proper biography of the white collar criminal depicted by Leo DiCaprio in "Catch me if you can"

Joe Rogan interviewed Snowden!

Not a talk, but I discovered that once upon a time, in TT Games (where all the Lego games are made) they attempted to create a LOTR tie-in... and I think that for a prototype on the previous gen it was looking really impressive!

there's also proper gameplay, this one looked quite boring:

The others I haven't seen yet

Speaking of boomer shooters, Graven team posted a dev blog about their mapmaking process. If you didn’t know, they do the brushwork in Trenchbroom and then import in UE4

I remember sometime recently it was discussed in the forum about game size. Good points made here.

This popped up, not sure if on my twitter or yt feed, nonetheless interesting... good timing since I played it only two months ago.

What I like is that this is an affirmation for what I was doing last time I was trying to map for CSGO: being uninspired for a grand vision for a map, I started creating small map chunks of little area that seemed interesting, and that started to put together like LEGO.

Is this true?
