Chris becoming a youtuber was not on the bingo card.
learning every discipline, no joke
fucking legends.
Thx.
16:45 Every single person that love Arpg's will Agree. You both are Genius!
I bought some Gothic. Thanks dudes!
The berserk reference is WILD and satisfying to me .
Funny story – Erik and I are from the same northern town of Umeå and both ended up working in videogame art. He's a couple years older than me but I remember hearing rumors around the city that he's "the best at drawing in the whole city". It was a small town, so you had to soak up and learn from anywhere you could. I still have a handful of his drawings on my hard drive that he made while studying industry design in 2001 and I remember they were super inspiring for me as a kid
Wow! I miss hearing, "Hi I'm Chris Wilson"… Any plans to make the TCG into an actual game on steam? Love the format of the interview. It feels more like a podcast and less like an interview. Nice work!
A classic act by Chris in interviewing
oO met playing d2 " where can i find a artist " – thats cool.
Seeing you guys talk actually makes me want to buy a pack or so as someone who isn't really into any tcg stuff haha
Is he Swedish?
Docks farming and being genuinely afraid of Merciless Dominus in HC was so good
so this guy is responsible for me questioning my sexuality because of the tomboy-ranger? interesting…
just kidding. love this channel, chris! keep it up 🙂
I am more interested in Brian Weissman's story.
No one cares about Sorcery TCG
Thx Mr Crhis
As a subscriber of both Chris and Sorcery channels I was confused but delighted to see this one of my feed
"Hi, I'm Chris Wilson *pause*" Can make a grown up man cry
The "art collector" aspect of Sorcery is absolutely brilliant. Owning the original painting of a playcard would be awesome.
I really appreciate this video. He seems very cool and passionate about the art and 'feels' of the game. Love that.
GOAT to GOAT communication 👏👏
Chris, I became a software dev because of poe1
