Listen To Sid Meier Talk For An Hour
Firaxis Games' Jake Solomon sits down for a long conversation with legendary developer Sid Meier. The subjects span a wide range, from finding inspiration to approaching development.
The talk happened at the first Firaxicon – the official Firaxis Games convention. See the whole thing for yourself below. If you've enjoyed the games from Firaxis – from Meier's Civilization to Solomon's XCOM: Enemy Unknown – you'll undoubtedly find something interesting in the discussion.
Our Take
Whenever two smart developers get together and start talking about games and the industry, you can't really lose. Not everything they say needs to be earth-shattering or provocative to be compelling. Though the talk is more focused on Meier, both he and Solomon have had a significant impact on the industry.
