    How has the VR staff reacted to the Apple+ tv show Mythic Quest? I found it funny.  Working in SF I have met those personalities in people at different tech companies, as a health care provider I get to meet people from a lot of companies, at all levels so I found it funny.

     

    Cheers

    I haven't heard of it before, so thanks for the head's up.

     

    Beyond that, this thread will likely get moved to off-topic since it's not specifically about Pantheon.

    I haven't seen it myself as I don't have anything Apple but after a quick google, it looks good!

    Moved to Off-Topic as this doesn't relate to Pantheon. ;)

    When that show was coming out Rob Mcelhenny told this story:

    “I met a creative director” for one of Ubisoft’s games, McElhenney says — likening the role to that of filmmakers who direct their own screenplays. “He took this very loaded beat, and he took a breath and stared out into the distance and said, ‘I create worlds.’ I excused myself for a second, and I called Charlie [Day, McElhenney’s producing partner] and said, ‘We have to do a show about this because it is amazing.’” 

    It's obvious that the creative director was quoting Brad McQuaid, but I was really disappointed that Brad didn't get the credit for his quote. It's probably irrational but I get kind of upset that this creative director is getting credited for Brad's quote. There is no reason the creative director shouldn't have quoted Brad here, and there is no reason McElhenny would know that Brad said it. But emotions aren't rational.

     

    Like others, no plan on signing up for anything apple just to see a show.
