Hi! Lots of questions as I'm finishing up college soon and am considering game design as well!
What kinds of games do you like to make the most? Turn based strategy, party games? Do you like board games or card games better?
How do you feel about the board/card game industry today? Any favorites? Any you really don't like?
Are you interested at all in designing sports? There are several companies right now that specialize in making balls/objects for sports that don't exist yet, or modifications of typical sports balls (Aerobie, Waboba) and I'm wondering how you feel about their presence in the market.
I've had games and sports strengthen some relationships while destroying others. How do you feel about the use of games for social bonding versus for competition? Do games help us work out problems we have with each other?
I'll stop here--streaming board games on twitch is a much smaller market than streaming video games. Live play of board games is mostly regulated to culturally dominant strategy games such as Chess and Go... do you feel that there can be a future for streaming of board game play with the rise of arguably more exciting esports market?
