I find it amusing that Bungie was in his "big company that will ignore me" category. Knowing what I know, I'm not surprised they scooped him up.

Does this mean there is a sliver of hope for a PC version of Destiny? I assume he did most of his modding on the PC version.
That's exactly what I was wondering.

Creation tools are on PC. Target platform doesn't matter

Don't read anything into it. They think he's cool. They hired him. They can train him in anything he doesn't already know.
Remember: Bungie used to do Mac games before they went to consoles.
Snap, that's cool.

Game Modding. Its like game development - without the time crunch.
But with the added bonus of not being paid to do it, being completely reliant on your own self-generated motivation, and having to crunch the rest of your life (family, friends, jobs, and more) to make time to actually finish a mod, or any time-consuming independent project, and have it be halfway decent.
Of course

I was concerned a rebut was going be of this; I suppose the emphasis added was not enough. The fault is mine. That said, of course everything requires degrees of work and sacrifice, and of course "we" could pick clean every scrap of verbiage and technicality.
In the end my dear sir is the difference of those who do for money and do because they love what they do. Money is just a bonus then.
Self-generated motivation? Sounds like potential to me.
To each their own.
