apolloooo 12/28/17 11:33:13 AM #16:	Tim schafer, despite his idiot level management skills is a great designer and writer. Its just he probably works better as employee, project manager or lead designer and writer than executive. About the newbies in the industry, i probably give it to vince d.weller (its a pseudonym) for age of decadence (the writing and prose is so damn good) mark yohalem (worked on primordia and the best part of torment tides of numenera) is pretty great too. --- http://i.imgtc.com/iJyp6bF.png http://i.imgtc.com/ZBw36Qh.png Thanks for the peeps that made the pics <3 if i make typos it means i am on phone <cite>apolloooo posted [p:893005368] in Is Chris A...
