Disagreement Quote by Heather Maxwell Chandler
““If people are in disagreement on how a certain element functions in the game, do not waste time trying to convince the dissenter that the idea is good. Instead, spend the time prototyping the idea, get some actual gameplay feedback on the fun factor, and make adjustments or change the functionality based on this information.””
