In a new interview, Cliffy B has talked about his future in games development. He has said stuff like "I will never make a disc based game ever again" but also that he is shifting more towards PC development because "that's where the community is"
"Your game is as good as how many YouTube videos it can yield," Bleszinski says. "My wife and I are totally hooked on Rust right now. There are two lessons people have not learned from Minecraft: Get the game out there and build it. Some kid will put out a video. Players will teach each other.
Starting his own studio is the direction in which he's leaning, and he wants to benefit from a modern online environment that allows development teams to have closer relationships with their players and welcome them into the iterative process.
"PC is where I'm going to wind up. That's where the community is," he says. "The trend will always be the core. If I start a studio, I want a community manager there day one. I want weekly video or podcasts; I want task lists available on the subreddit. When my wife and I play Rust, before we play, we check the subreddit.
Seems like Cliffy has seen the light that the master race perpetuates and is forever changed. Welcome Cliffy, we embrace you back
