How do you keep The Sims on top? Humble: No. 1 is listening to our community. Number two is learning from our mistakes. So if our competitors do things that our players respond to, don't be too proud. And I think listen to your customers and make changes accordingly. It's very important that the customer's always right and you can't let your own internal design religion get ahead of the customer. So that's the answer. Steal ideas where appropriate. Hardy-har-har. At least he was right about the last answer ¬_¬ Thanks for the link :) Title: Interview with Rod Humble Post by: Tenshii~Akari on December 12, 2007, 11:15:00 am :laugh: I believe that was the funniest part of the interview.
