<p>Seriously, working with John is amazing. I come up with a simple and fun idea, and he finds nuance and angles that I never dreamed. Working as part of this team is going to be a BLAST!</p>John Compton wrote:Vanessa Hoskins wrote:John described the art as

<p>Starfinder is a separate game with its own separate (and amazing!) team. Formalizing these new roles is a great step forward for us all internally, since it's allowing us the framework to interact more and more with other teams in a way that was trickier before. I know that personally, I've had some of the most constructive and inspiring cross-setting/cross-team chats with the Starfinder folks that I've had since the game launched as a result of this reorganization!</p>
<p>AKA: No need to be paranoid. There's some great stuff coming for Starfinder. We just can't do all the new organizational blogs to introduce the newly reorganized teams all at once is all.</p>Elegos wrote:I'm a little disappointed to see things like Starfinder Adventures, Starfinder Adventure Paths etc left out of this narrative team, if I'm being honest.
