IW: “Kotick’s a great guy.”
There’s a wonderful interview with Infinity Ward’s Joel Emslie, Lead Character Designer, on Gamasutra about ‘bringing “Modern Warfare 2″ to life’, which highlights a lot of interesting aspects of the creation of this year’s undoubtedly biggest blockbuster. However, one quote sticks out:
Finally, I know there’s been some chatter about this online – but has Bobby Kotick really succeeded in taking all the fun out of your video game development process?
Joel Emslie: No way. Absolutely not. Kotick’s a great guy.
As much flak as Bobby Kotick gets in the press, his employees seem to be quite fond of him. Worth remembering when reading next week’s earning call, which will surely be full of outrageous statements from Activision’s CEO.
