Tomas Rawlings in conversation with Jordan Sorcery.
We talk about the culture, behaviours, and perceptions of the video game and tabletop gaming hobbies and industries. As an exceptional thinker on the nature of gaming Tomas has given TED talks, consulted across the video games industry, written tabletop games, and co-founded his own games studio, Auroch Digital, to push the boundaries of what games can mean.
In more recent times Tomas and Auroch have adapted classic Games Workshop titles like Chainsaw Warrior and Dark Future for the video game market. And in their latest release they have taken the Warhammer 40,000 universe and refracted it through the lens of retro first person shooters with Boltgun.
We cover enlightening topics about the past, the future, and the value of gaming in society.
