Jordan is someone who has been killing it with the freelance writing these last twelve months. Having recently graduated with a Masters in Journalism, he’s written for the Daily Star, IGN, Rock Paper Shotgun, and many more so far.
He also runs a site called Quillstreak, which goes into all aspects of games, alongside a podcast; Quillspeak.
We talk about his journey with it all up until now, alongside a topic that has been on mine and many others’ minds recently: Can remote working work for a full-time career like this, or do all paths lead to London?
This week a Nintendo Direct was announced and shown, and it wasn’t until the end that a remake of Link’s Awakening was announced for the Nintendo Switch. With that, Matt joins me to also gush over the original on the Game Boy, alongside discussing remakes and nostalgia in general. We also manage to talk about Matt’s two choices, alongside what could have been for certain games.
We also talk briefly about a certain Shadow Moses game, where Matt gives an opinion that leaves me surprised!
After a few false starts in Skype, we had a great chat about Lee’s history with his iPad, and how he tries to fit it into his workflow with his day-job.
We also talk about podcasting and networking through social networks, and if there’s restricted social circles in some areas that few have access to.
He also asks for help for a new controller for his Switch, alongside me recommending a certain game I’ve been waiting a while for.
We go though his favourite game first and foremost, where I mentioned about my favourite mods for it and its previous game, alongside his boss stage.
But mainly, we talk about a game from last year we still can’t get enough of, alongside our hopes for the characters we’d like to see in its Season 2 DLC. Which coincidentally, is going to be announced this weekend.
Liam has been someone I’ve been following for the last few years, ever since I spotted his video about Rogue Squadron and the cancelled plans for a Wii release.
Even though he has a day-job, he’s been killing it by publishing videos on YouTube that have interested him, and that’s resulted in showcasing games that a lot of us were previously unaware of.
In this entry, we talk about just what makes him go for these particular games, alongside social media, and of course, his favourite game and boss stage.
