"Willits said he bumped into comedian Jimmy Carr at the airport and they got to talking about games, apparently. "He honestly gave me an idea for a video game. I'm not joking. Such a nice and brilliant guy," Willits said. That's all Willits had to say on the matter, and Carr hasn't apparently discussed his game idea publicly online. Carr, who is known for his crowdwork, said in a popular video that he hasn't played video games since childhood."
"He joked that young people should stop playing video games. He said video games today are "too good" and they represent "cheap dopamine" as opposed to being a worthwhile way to spend your time and money. His advice to young people? "Go out and have a real f**king adventure." As for Willits, he worked at id Software in the '90s and contributed to early entries in the Doom and Quake franchises."
Tim Willits said he bumped into comedian Jimmy Carr at an airport and Carr gave him an idea for a video game. Willits called Carr "a nice and brilliant guy" and Carr has not publicly discussed the idea. Carr previously said he stopped playing video games since childhood and advised young people to avoid modern games, calling them "too good" and "cheap dopamine," and urging people to "go out and have a real f**king adventure." Willits worked at id Software on Doom and Quake, rose to studio director, left in 2019, and is now chief creative officer at Saber Interactive, which had a 2024 hit with Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 and is developing a sequel.
