Very good content! Thank you!
Thank you
I really love the effort that the 80lv team puts into their content, there have been some amazing guests on these podcasts.
Kirill, please take this as constructive criticism - I feel that you are missing such a great opportunity to treat these interviews more professionally, you have some genuinely epic guests on these interviews (and I love hearing their experiences) but the interviews do not seem well-researched or engaging for the people on the other end, the questions are usually quite generic and not tailored to the specifics of the guest's history or specializations. The audio quality on this one was also a problem - I couldn't actually get through this one because of the audio distractions in the background.
Thank you for watching/listening to our content and sharing your thoughts. We will definitely take it into consideration! It's always necessary to improve:)
And regarding the sound, this one was more of a force majeure from parent life. The production team tried to fix it but it's hard to clean human voices from the background, unfortunately. But it gets better after the beginning!
30:30 Miasmata did that before Death Stranding.
22:00 Yes. Generation Zero doesn't bombard player every 40 seconds, but at the same time this game didn't become hugely successful. So I don't think it's a good example to follow. For most players just walking around beautiful nature isn't enough. There is a desire for games to have more gameplay depth, more unique content, story etc.
You're a cat. What do you know?
I really wanted to follow along, but my ADHD brain can't handle a podcast with a playing child in the background...
Yeah like Nvidia Broadcast exists too.
thank you for watching/listening to our content! There was sort of a parent force majeure while recording the episode. Our editor tried to clean the noise as much as possible but it's harder when it comes to human voices, unfortunately :c
it gets so much better after the beginning, though!
