He also put in the time. Acerola did a good vid on why he is never going to be a game dev, and he did some cool analysis on skill sets people had going in. Eric just graduated with a degree in CS, and focused a lot on programming, so he has the chops for the code, while his main barrier was music and art. Meanwhile Toby Fox was the opposite, but both had talents that they had spent years crafting. Eric's tech, and Toby's music both represent massive pillars of game dev.
Jason has none of these.
That scene from taken, both Toby and Eric could say Neeson's line. Jason would say:
"I worked at Blizzard entertainment, and I am going to block this number." Insane behavior.
