Hey Patrons,
The first of our extended interviews from our trip to Crystal Dynamics is now live, featuring ex-Game Informer writer and current director of community Meagan Marie. We covered a lot in this chat including her history with the original Core games, the move from journalism to working at a game studio and even how Lara inspired her to leave her dream job. Chapter markers are in the video too.

Looks like another fascinating interview! I’m especially looking forward to the Soul Reaver one, particularly anything technical and anything involving the cut content. Do you have any idea, based on the people you spoke to, who to ask about publishing the art bible?
