Quotes
-
No game has infinite longevity, so it’s good to switch every now and then.
-
There’s no master, miracle formula [to building your stream.] There’s things you can do to make your stream better [and] there’s things you can do to generate growth, but there’s no miracle formula and you need luck. Luck is a really big part of it.
