I need to get into a different industry
Saturday, June 7th, 2008Last night, I dreamt that the major executives of Funcom were attempting to dominate the world with some kind of enormous Metal Gear-like weapon.
I was witnessing this on a highway in my car, greatly distressed, so I emailed Ragnar Tornquist, Funcom employee and designer of The Longest Journey, with a brief but impassioned plea for salvation. The email read something like this:
“Ragnar,
I hope this message will do some good. I don’t know if you know what’s going on, and you might even be involved since your company is behind it, but for the good of the world you need to help.”
Mr. Tornquist then flew overhead and, using a strategy similar to that of Fox’s final smash in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, dropped an enormous tank onto his coworkers’ Metal Gear, and that is how the designer of The Longest Journey saved the world in my idiotic, inexplicable dreams.
