Time Estimation

View ChannelAbout
I am a video game developer, mostly known for creating Fallout. I plan to use this channel to tell stories about game development, including stories about design, programming, team building, working for development companies, pitching to game publishers, and even a few stories about my short stint as a co-owner of a company, Troika Games. I have been doing this for more than forty years, so I have a lot of stories to tell. I also eat a lot of dark chocolate.

Video Description
I talk about the best ways to accurately estimate the time it will take to do tasks, and what happens if you under (or over) estimate the time. Most of my examples are programming tasks, since that is the area in which I have the most experience. Videos I reference: Crunch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QJHpuJxMqiA Crunch, Part 2: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eXJkecLBhOE Making of Bard's Tale Construction Set (1991): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v9j5k3K29Rw Extrovert or Introvert?: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FT0fLk0WjZA
