Kaz: Pushing the Virtual Divide

"He's really stressed from working on the game day in day out". News flash - everyone is stressed from whatever their job is day in day out.

Thank you for making an irrelevant and useless point captain obvious. Oh and why don't you try making a AAA title, come back, and using a scale from 1 - 10 tell me how tell me how stressed you were (1=, 10=)

Rubbish. Stress does not effect the entire population. It's all in your head.

Yes, it worked perfectly! I use Firefox, just install that add-on.

The ads are normal. Its the site that has a truckload of ads mixed within the video.... Horrible... makes Youtube look almost ad-free!

I drove for a living. Loved my job. Looked forward to it. No stress at all. Personally I suspect most people here (Canada, as recent figures say that the average Canadian owes $1.64 of every $1.00 he/she earns) are stressed because of everything else in their lives, like debt that they can't afford and makes them imagine it's their jobs causing it. Of course it's also stress people brought onto themselves through greed and carelessness. And yeah, I get tired of hearing them whining about it too.

Possibly Kaz is merely tired from long hours.

Give me 80+ million dollars and 5 years and I'll do it, it's easy to release Beta titles when you have such things handed to you, all you need is a team of competent, motivated people and organization.

You drove for a living and didn't have any stress! You Canadians must be really good drivers, I can't drive across town without some moron on a cell phone doing something stupid and stressing me out

Actually Canadians are among the worse drivers in the world. (Proof of this is that ESC has been legislated on A:LL cars sold here now!!) but I don't let that get to me. And when it did, it wasn't the job that did it, it was the stupid people I had to share the road with. lol. As for cellphones, I always wondered who these people were phoning at 5:30 am!!!

Because you've done it and you know the toll it takes on you compared to a "regular" job?

 

[sumbrownkid]

Oh I don't know. I can't imagine being a pornstar being stressful.

Though I can imagine being a game designer as a stressful job. Honestly though, I think his aging has more to do with smoking than anything.

Great Documentary 👍

Or age.

That too.

 

[DingoDile]

Great documentary, but I think it could be 1 hour not more. some parts were unnecessary.
Jordan parts were great!
And lol @ rhinoceros beetles part!

Does any of you here even know the meaning of STRESS ?

It is only you who decided the level of stress. If you are strong psychologically and able to control yourself you can have no stress !

because stress does come into play when working on a lifetime project, but ok he's never been stressed a day in his life ok dude

 

[kennylmao]

@kennylmao at the beginning, it said the music came from "me&john" so you might want to look that up.

Thanks!

Maybe he should come back to being a game designer then.

I love Gran Turismo but, I partly agree on that. Current gen GT has been lacking in some aspects compared to previous GTs. I've only played GT2 before GT5, and something felt different. Partly because a lot of awesome cars that were previously in the game were left out! Maybe it's because things change as time goes and I'm not used to change. Oh well, as long as it looks pretty, I can live with that. One part that PD definitely have mastered is the graphics. I take pictures, and I view pictures posted by other GTPlanet users. Beautiful pictures mask the somewhat unpleasant memories of engine sound and other stuff.

Well, I am sure that running a business, any business, comes with it's share of stress. We do need to put things into perspective though, when your life or the lives of others hang in the balance, I'm guessing the levels of stress involved are magnified by orders of magnitude. I have worked hundreds of feet in the air and thousands of feet into the earth, trust me...I know the meaning of the word.

I'm not your dude at all by the way.

All people manage stress and are affected by stress differently. Be it confidence, experience or just personality traits, some people can handle certain stressors, some can not.

The Kart instructor doesn't seem very good at explaining things to little kids.

Instructor: Sacrifice! The Apex is a point of Measurement. Release the car to the exit! When we release we get grip in the rear. Efficient is effective what's effective fast momentum carrying it up hill right?

Kids: Yes yes yes leave me alone I know what I'm doing!

 

[JogoAsobi]

He really does have a bad smoking habit though. On top of that i think he's really stressed too from just working on the game day in day out. Some people don't understand that GT is a AAA title on a console and it take alot to make a game look even close to what GT6 looks like

Heavy smokers are pretty common in Japan actually.

Would love to see ongoing shots over time of a few posters on this thread...
...to see how stress may have affected some over time.
Its always easy to snark from the outside, especially when you can't be seen.
I would also bet many have not worked long enough yet to accumulate real stress. LOL.

I can understand ranting and raving about dissatisfaction with something you paid for like GT6.
But when you venture into the realm of aging and bad habits, its tabloid zone folks.
Bit too much time on your hands? ..or maybe not much going on in your offline lives?

You're 19. Please don't talk to us about stress.

It's pretty premium on vimeo and hulu. Assuming you mean HD by premium.
