It's amazing to see them sharing the stage and talking about their first achievement with such dignity and depth.

It's even more mind-blowing when you realize that Shelley went ahead and started Ensemble Studios[1] that created the Age of Empires franchise which is still alive today[2]. And Civilization is today still under development and even more successful than ever before.

I bought The Settlers 7 purely because I knew Bruce Shelley worked on it. It was a nice game, interesting take on the "casual economic sim" genre
