Quick Quotes – Cliff Bleszinski on Epic’s “no dudebros” Fortnite
“There’s no dudebros in it. Not that there’s anything wrong with that, right? Creatively for the team, Gears has been amazing for us.

I was a staunch supporter of the idea, because the game is just like a no-brainer – I was like yes.”
