    Starr Long as a guest mentor to Paul Cutsinger's project "Planet Destroyer", after them meeting on E3 and sparking ideas for eachother.

    http://www.twitch.tv/paulcutsinger/c/6935947?t=19s

    Nothing meaty for ordinary SotA fans, instead mostly things we have seen/heard before and ideas out of scope for Episode 1.
    But lots of great discussions regarding twitch feed and community and game development.

    Also some really cool future ideas for our twitchers/tubers about halfway through the vid. So tagging some of you so you don't miss it.

    This was an interesting video. Starr has a great mind for game design.

    I was especially interested in his recounting of RTS game play and how important COUNTERS are to this genre. If only we had COUNTERS in SOTA combat! I wish I knew why this wasn't designed from the beginning and why I we still don't have blocking and countering in combat. It seems like Starr (at the 20 minute mark) has a great understanding of how compelling this type of play can be.
