Chris has observed he’s heard himself described as a “mad genius.” When asked how he would describe himself Chris has been known to say he’s not sure how he would, but eventually he suggests he’s usually playful, obsessed with detail, self motivated, sometimes stubborn, and often persistent. It is known that he wouldn’t rule out creating an entirely new game at this time but also says that would be unlikely. I feel like I'm getting on a bit now age- |
