Here are some David facts (he will probably be annoyed at me when he sees this)rudel_ic wrote:5 years of game dev experience. So.. Where's the genius part? It's simply stuff he learned.Zantalos wrote:David made Blackshades in like less than 3 months, and he was like... 14 I think. Of course, David is a genuis and has been making games since the age of 9 but... yeah I don't know where I'm going with this.
People are fast with calling someone a genius. Geniuses are noble-prize material, that's something else.
- He has a strange pseudo-photographic memory. One time in high-school I was struggling to memorize a couple of pages from Hamlet for a stupid English assignment. I had been practicing for days and days. During lunch one day, in order to tease me, David asked if he could see my copy of Hamlet, looked at it for a few minutes, and recited the entire thing back to me.
- He can read at an insane speed with full retention. Just from reading before bed, he has been known to finish meaty books in one or two days. Each summer, his room becomes littered with books that he has read.
- David took the SAT a year or two early, as a freshman or sophomore, and he got a perfect score.
