Bruce Nesmith - TSR, Bethesda

In the history of pen and paper role playing games, no company name looms larger than TSR, creators of Dungeons and Dragons, and in the realm of computer role playing games one of the greatest publishers has been Bethesda.   Our guest today, Bruce Nesmith, worked for both of these company's in their hay day, first as a programmer for TSR on their ill-fated venture into software publishing in the early 80s  and then as a writer for both TSR and Bethesda.  From highs to lows and back again, a true insider's view of the life of a game dev.   Recorded March 2023   Get us on your mobile device: Android:  https://www.google.com/podcasts?feed=aHR0cHM6Ly92aWRlb2dhbWVuZXdzcm9vbXRpbWVtYWNoaW5lLmxpYnN5bi5jb20vcnNz iOS:      https://podcasts.apple.com/de/podcast/video-game-newsroom-time-machine   And if you like what we are doing here at the podcast, don't forget to like us on your podcasting app of choice, YouTube, and/or support us on patreon! https://www.patreon.com/VGNRTM   Send comments on twitter @videogamenewsr2 Or Instagram https://www.instagram.com/vgnrtm Or [email protected]     Links:   https://www.facebook.com/people/Bruce-Nesmith-Author/100065304827763/?locale=de_DE https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bruce_Nesmith https://www.amazon.com/stores/Bruce-Nesmith/author/B08YKG3DM4?ref=ap_rdr&store_ref=ap_rdr&isDramIntegrated=true&shoppingPortalEnabled=true https://www.mobygames.com/person/16256/bruce-nesmith/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TSR,_Inc. https://www.amazon.com/Slaying-Dragon-History-Dungeons-Dragons/dp/125027804X https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brian_Blume https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maus https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marvel_Super_Heroes_(role-playing_game) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_War_Rafts_of_Kron https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DragonStrike_(board_game) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bethesda_Softworks https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Elder_Scrolls_II:_Daggerfall
