Steeping a little longer
The game is being published by Annapurna Interactive, which recentlyimploded like a sad submarine after all its crew angrily fired themselves into the sea via the torpedo bays. Although we don’t know the exact details of how the publisher’s ongoing difficulty is affecting studios linked to it, it’s likely not helping. It’s worth emphasising, however, that Ivy Road don’t state whether this particular hiccup has contributed to the delay. For all I know it could just be that they simply need more time to make the character lookeven more angry.
All good in my books. The “cosy game” has been left uninterrogated for too long. After all, who could interrogate thatadorable widdle facey-wace? Well, probably these people. In aninterview with the Guardian, Wreden said at some point in development he realised that the characters were “in real conflict and very much not OK… They wouldn’t be magically healed by drinking tea in the middle of the woods.”
