Guess so
Great interview. Will is such an interesting person to listen to. Probably one of the best interviews you had with ex-BGS devs, on the same level as Bruce’s.
Can you also get Mark Lampert or Joel Burgess?
Looking forward to checking out Wyrdsong when it’s out!
Loved both the Skyrim & Fallout 4 intros; & the haunted house in Markarth/ Daedric Quests. Far Harbour was amazing too!
Thanks for years of nostalgia man.
