In this episode, we chat with Victoria Rose, freelance journalist working in games who’s written for Esports Express, PC Gamer, ESPN and Polygon. She worked as site lead for The Flying Courier, Polygon’s hub for all things Dota 2, and currently has a gig writing about games as Fanbyte Media’s Morning News Correspondent. We chat about what it takes to break into the business of writing for games, some of the unique challenges that have specifically popped up with e-sports journalism in recent years, and some of the best times had in Final Fantasy XIV.
