I'm not a fan of simulations. Where, 'Oh, we'll go play a simulation of world peace and figure out how to make peace' and then somehow magically that will get translated into the real world. No, that's not the kind of games that I make.

There are people who are very dismissive of games and gamers.

When we play a game, we tackle tough challenges with more creativity, more determination, more optimism, and we're more likely to reach out to others for help.

You need to develop mental habits that allow you to activate the same brain patterns we activate during gameplay.

There is no problem that doesn't have some underlying need for more optimism, stamina, resilience and collaboration. And games are, I believe, the best platform we have for providing that.

A dramatic decrease in oil availability is not at all far-fetched.

Compared with games, reality is disconnected.
