I keep thinking about how Miyazaki himself said he absolutely sucks at his own games and only got through using every trick, every tool, and every bit of knowledge from being the creator to get through it and I want to see him in PvP.
Imagine being able to beat a game designer at their own game.
It's not the same, but I remember my friend and I absolutely wrecking an XBox live company team in Halo Reach big teams. We were an exceptionally mid team on the best days. It was so satisfying.
Guild wars 2 has achievements for defeating company employees in PVP. Fun little easter egg
I have some super rare obscure Steam achievement for a game called Tactical Intervention that required doing a really stupid thing while on the same server as one of the devs. I don't think it was killing them, though. Just that they had to be in the server. It's been a while.
It's honestly not hard. I watch people use software I build, and they're far more efficient than I. It turns out building stuff and using stuff are two very different skills.
