This week on The Game Dev Show we are joined by the (reluctantly titled) veteran industry journalist and Editor-in-Chief at Gamesindustry.biz, James Batchelor.


James takes us through his 15 years in games journalism, and how games coverage has changed during that time. We chat about his industry beginnings as an Intern at PC Gamer, his time at MCV and Develop, all the way up to his current role at Gamesindustry.biz.


With the ever-changing face of games coverage, James discusses journalistic neutrality, what Dungeons and Dragons alignment Journalists take, and the morals of game coverage. We also discuss the unique challenges of industry journalism, censorship, user reviews, and terrible game ideas..
