Sacred Symbols+, Episode 530 | The Man Who Gets Game Devs To Candidly Speak (Patreon)

It's me, Colin. Please welcome Reece "Kiwi Talkz" Reilly to Sacred Symbols+. In recent years, Reece has quietly and steadily nurtured an exceptional catalog of interviews on his YouTube channel, talks he conducts with gaming industry denizens around the world. In a space severely bereft of primary sources, he puts himself out there, does the legwork to reach out to enormous numbers of current and ex-developers, and allows them to tell their stories. Indeed, we've sourced his interviews on Sacred Symbols itself on more than a few occasions. In short: I really wanted to understand more about his process and approach. After all, it's not easy to get inherently guarded people working in an innately secretive space to say interesting things. And yet, Reece does so on a regular basis. Thus, it's time for us to briefly study the work of one man, who in turn allows us to learn about the work of so many others.
