Eugen Pfister<p>I had the great pleasure of interviewing Jörg Kienzle for <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://hcommons.social/@chludens" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>chludens</span></a></span> today. (I hijacked Adrian's account, sorry!) We talked for almost two hours about his socialisation with computers and how he got into coding, and which movies and games inspired him to program the action RPG Hashtag#Gate with his friends. And I found it all very exciting and inspiring. My team has already conducted 101 (!) interviews to date and this was only my third. <a href="https://fedihum.org/tags/GameStudies" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GameStudies</span></a></p>
