Are there any websites that catalogues every interview for a given game/developer?

Does any know if there are any websites that list out every interview related to a game and/or to a developer? Or any websites that tried to do so but stopped?

I know there is this for every Miyamoto interview. https://spritecell.com/bp10-shigeru-miyamoto/

There's also silenthillmemories that lists out every interview even tangentially related to Silent hill, including reddit AMAs. https://www.silenthillmemories.net/creators/interviews_en.htm

At the very least does anyone know a better subreddit to ask this question?

How do I pick a master's thesis topic?

Hello! I've been a Master's computer science student for a while now but I can't seem to pick a topic. I want to do something with Novel View Synthesis (NVS), specifically 3D Gaussian Splatting since it seems like the state of the art and not too hard to train or run.

However, I have no idea how to pick a topic a topic and I feel incredibly overwhelmed. I actually tried and started three times before with another NVS method, NeRFs, but each time I found out in the middle of the project that I either picked a paper whose project did not work, whose technical requirements were massive, and by the third time it had been so long that NeRFs were no longer the state of the art for NVS. I think part of the problem was I had no idea how to pick a topic in the first place but now I'm scared out of my mind that I'll choose something and it won't work or it'll be overly ambitious or something else that I haven't thought of.

So I'm wondering, how do you perform a literature review (besides reading surveys and seminal papers)? Once you do, how do you come up with an idea? I know papers present problems and future work but is that the only way forward? I've also heard that you need to combine 2 or more papers but how do you even know if 2 papers can be combined? Or if you they can be, how do you know the work of combining them will not be overly ambitious? What do you do if one or more of those papers aren't reproducible?

Also yes, I've asked my thesis advisor for help or just to give me a project but he just asks me what ideas I have and my whole problem is that I have none. Thanks!

>!It's when Telly is reflecting on how the queen wasn't inherently evil. It's not in the official soundtrack.!<
