I talked with John O'Brien and Greg Lidstone who worked on BG3's cinematics and worldbuilding to help you find out! Hint: Creating a great game isn't about a perfect plan or "getting it right" the first time.

Helping leaders create better video games through holistic leadership.
关于我们
At Building Better Games, we aim to move past the games industry headlines about big revenue/player numbers to look at why some companies win and others don’t. Making games is hard. We know! We’ve been there, and through our own successes and failures, we’ve discovered one core theme: leaders are the catalyst to building successful games. We’ll talk about what those leaders do to create a winning (or struggling!) team. Whether you’re a CEO, a discipline lead, or just someone wanting to know more about game dev, we’re here to answer some questions, raise others, and provide a path towards something we always wanted: an effective and holistic way to lead within game development.

Coaching for leaders is (still) hard to come by in game dev. Leadership development is not something we give ourselves time to focus on. It’s one of the first things to get slashed when stuff goes crazy. It’s so easy to skip it because of all the urgent stuff on our plates. In the end, we get leaders struggling in their roles, causing negative impacts around the whole studio. Not because they are bad people, but because they are untrained and poorly mentored. Many want that training and mentorship, perhaps you do too. If you do, I’m kicking off a new round of BBG’s Leaders in Game Dev coaching program. It will help you grow into a more effective and capable version of yourself, accelerating your career and helping those you lead ship better games that players love. I’ve had a lot of success coaching and mentoring leaders individually, but that’s pretty expensive and not a path every person can take. Hoping this can be much more accessible while still giving you access to experience and guidance so that you and your teams can excel. For more details: https://lnkd.in/eafzByq8 We are looking to enroll 15 people before September 24th, and some slots are spoken for. We’re capping it at 15 on the 24th to keep it focused. If you know someone who could benefit, ping them! And if you don’t mind helping me get the word out, reshare this! My goal is to improve leadership and production across game dev. I hope you’ll join me! #gameproduction#gamedevelopment #gameindustry #leadershiptraining
