This week we're revisiting video game design and how we can apply some of the UXUI principles to data visualization. Joining me is Fernando Forero, the Senior UI Artist over at Activision who is most famous for his works for Diablo IV, Witcher and Cyberpunk 2077. In this episode, we dive into his creative process behind redesigning the user interface from the lens of someone living in the Sanctuary - pretty interesting viewpoint I must say!
