I don't see a problem with any of this. I don't think he's an egomaniac, misguided and starry eyed perhaps, and word is he's quite a nice guy to work for.Speaking at a panel promoting Beyond: Two Souls in Sydney this evening, Cage said he hadn’t been strongly influenced by consumer feedback on Heavy Rain, Quantic Dream’s last release.
“The thing is, if Heavy Rain had been a complete disaster, then probably I would have changed my mind. But actually you try not to be too influenced by the feedback because otherwise you become a marketing person,” he said.
“It’s like, I get my list of things that people wanted or didn’t want and I’m just going to tick the boxes and try to make them happy.
“This is not how I work and I don’t think any creative person can work that way – you just do what you believe in, or you go where your instinct leads you. And hope it won’t turn out completely wrong.”
That said, Cage said he was “inspired” by his meetings with players who would relate their experience with Heavy Rain.
“Still today, three years after the game’s release, there are still people telling me about what happened to them in Heavy Rain, in a very personal way – as if was something that happened to them in their real life, which is brilliant, I think. This is great; I can feel this; I find this very inspiring,” he said.
“But at the same time, yeah, some people liked this, and some people liked that – okay, fair enough, now let me try something else. Let me try another direction, and see if I can do better this time.”

He also needs more fucking tits.Pisscubes wrote:I guess I just feel like if the writing in your game is almost universally disparaged, even by people like me who enjoy the games, not hiring a writer to get you through this stuff-- insisting on the auteur shit still-- seems like hubris. It's not that he has this controversial style that some people don't get, it's that the writing is flat-out bad. And I guess I could be mistaking the starry-eyed stuff you describe with ego, but FUCK when he talks about the EMOTIONS in his games and how great they are I see a man up his own ass. He needs to step away from AUTEUR and let a collaborative effort happen if he wants his games to move forward.

are you playing this lights off, headphones on, slightly buzzed/stoned? for maximum effectspacehamster wrote:Played Outlast for a bit today. I'll give it some more time, but so far, it's basically, discover totally not predictable plot about human experiments gone wrong at the creepy lunatic asylum by reading found documents, and have lots of jump scares. It has its moments - there's been one jump scare setup so far that was really good, and hiding in lockers peeking through narrow slits trying to figure out if the big scary mutant that you can barely see is gone yet is appropriately creepy, but I expect that'll get old pretty soon.
I was just thinking yesterday, actually, that if I played this with headphones I'd probably give myself a heart attack. The player character's panting is seriously unnerving.canon.docre wrote:

i've been into idle thumbs since their very first episode; i love those guys. i played a ton of minecraft with jake back in the day.Pisscubes wrote:I just read about this after you posted-- So that dude from Idle Thumbs broke off with the Mark of the Ninja guy?

Does anyone listen to Idle Thumbs? I think that and Giant Bombcast are the only game podcasts I can stand anymore-- they actually seem to know something about the subject. Idle Thumbs is cool because those guys actually, you know, make games.
