"Do you like to build people, or do you like to build things?"

That question, asked by Craig Fryar of Online Alchemy, was the biggest thing that struck me from today's "Austin Video Game Industry" conference.

I know the answer to that.

I like to build people.

It's why I manage. It's why I act. It's why I game with other people.

I decided kind of last minute to go, and there's more I got out of the brief conference/workshop (I'm skipping the latter part of it), but I'll write about that separately in my video game blog.
