Hi Shane, with all the hard work that you have poured into Siftd over the years, have you ever felt "that's enough" and taught about throwing in the towel? I hope you keep going for as long as it brings you joy, but if you were to leave Siftd do you think you would still want to work in the industry in some capacity, or would video games become just a hobby for you again? Happy holidays from a cold and dark Stockholm. /Morris

Hey Shane Happy Holidays! AJTHELEGEND Here and I am wondering your thoughts on DLC Strategies With Games. What is the sweet spot for releasing DLC and if a developer waits too long does it hurt the game or interest of the DLC? Thanks for All You, Matt and The SIFTD Community Do and Happy New Year...

Also, with the success of the Sonic movies, the upcoming releases of Super Mario film and God of War/Last of Us shows, and the cold reception for the Tomb Raider, Assassin’s Creed, and Uncharted films, what’s the next IP that may come to film/TV and what’s your prediction for their financial/critical receptions?

Do you see a game trailers reunion in the future? Would you like to have a game trailers reunion or have you truly moved on and not looking back to the past.

Do you watch many foreign movies in their original language or do you watch the movie dubbed? I ask this because a lot of people give some Japanese games a negative review because of the bad voice acting. But those games are motion captured by Japanese actors for the original language. Shouldn't the game be reviewed in the original language? Isn't it in the same ballpark as the a foreign movie having bad lip sync? They have to do their best to match it. Idk, I watched Ghostbusters in Japanese for fun and the dialogue and tone is different because Japanese don't have the same quips. I feel that happens vice versa, too. Sorry this is long....Hope you understand what I'm trying to say.

We all know how much of a fan of horror movies and games you are. I cannot remember if you have ever told us if you are a sci-fi fan. What are your favorite (non-horror) sci-fi book, movie, and videogame? - Mountainlifter on SIFTD
