Epic president is skittish, I'm here to help.

Mike Capps (president of Epic) recently confessed that, well, these here are scary and confusing times for game developers.

So to help Mike sleep a little better at night, I thought I'd do him the favor of answering a few of his most pressing questions.

Will there be physical distribution in 10 years or even five?

No (and no).

Will anyone care about the next console generation?

Yes.  The same people hopelessly lobotomized on $50 roster updates for Madden, and a steady diet of Call of Medal Modern Duty Honor Warfare XVIII.  The rest of us will be busily enjoying (what's left of) our consumer freedoms on the PC.

What's going on in PC?

The same thing that's been going on for decades: high-quality game design by passionate independent developers, getting summarily discriminated against by the zombie nation and their corporate game publishing overlords.

Can you make money on PC if it's not a connected game?

Of course.  Please go look up 'escapism' in the dictionary and try to find where it says that it requires the presence of other people.  In fact, it's usually the opposite. 

What's going on in mobile?

Wholesale peddling of crap leveraging the lowest common denominator of exploitainment.  So, uh, opportunities abound, I guess, if that's your thing. 

There, I hope that takes some of the jitters out of Mike's stomach, and he can refocus Epic on its continued disregard and alienation of PC gaming.
