My guest today is Eskil Steenburg. A high school dropout who was hired as a researcher at an academic institute just a few years later. His game, Love, is a bold, imaginative and unlike almost any other game out there. This is a long old episode but Eskil has a lot to talk about including what a game actually is and how he's attempting to re-engineer the internet. It's a big episode. We talk about how Zelda was the first game that truly impacted him. How him and his friends used to sneak into a local state building to play networked Doom. The benefits of Hardcore Casual versus Casual Hardcore, why blue shells are bullshit and how he's fallen in love with Love all over again. "Eravamo in pausa!"
