Vanguard - Employee Spotlight @ Official Site

Brian Mazza, one of the programmers working on Vanguard: Saga of Heroes, steps into the employee spotlight at the official site.

Who are you and what do you do?
My name is Brian Mazza and I’m a programmer. More specifically, that means I spend about 10 minutes writing code for every 20 minutes spent compiling it, and 20 minutes testing it.

How did you get your start at Sigil?
I’d always wanted to be a game developer, so I went to the Fanguard in Las Vegas to see the game and test my luck at getting hired. I was the only person there wearing a suit, and after standing in the 103 million degree heat for about 30 seconds, I knew why. But my interview went a lot smoother – I very quickly proved to Ryan Elam I had no idea what I was talking about, but he hired me anyways. I think the suit paid off!
