GamesCom 2025
2025 - The Pod

What could possibly go wrong?
2025 - The Pod

Ralf as Guest in the Gaming Pub
2025 - The Gaming Pub
Three guys talking games. Only this time there's one who knows what he's talking about. Unusual for the gaming pub. But you shouldn't always take the same route to work.

Ralf as Guest in the Gaming Pub
2025 - The Pod

Why have Games become so huge?
2025 - The Pod
Today we ask Ralf why games nowadays tend to be far too big and far too long. It wears out the fun, it costs money and it's not just developers who want more compact titles, gamers do too. So why do so many developers continue to do this?

How a Game is made
2020 - The Pod
We are asked again and again: Where do the little games come from? And this time Andre doesn't look down at the floor and stammer something about ‘When mummy games and daddy games love each other very much...’. Instead, he has invited Ralf.

Crunch
2020 - The Pod
The first scientific evidence and empirical values have been available since the beginning of the 20th century: ‘crunch’, i.e. long-term overtime well in excess of 40 hours per week, does not work. It not only harms employees, it actually reduces productivity.

Why are games being postponed?

Post Mortem SpellForce
2020 - The Pod
