Ah, so that's the person who wrote Callistege? That explains much. Eh. If only they would show all these tweets, all these people and made a Kodex Kontroversy during the kickstarter.

Contract Writer
inXile Entertainment
March 2015 – February 2016 (1 year)Montreal, Canada Area

I worked with Colin McComb and Adam Heine on Torment: Tides of Numenera. I wrote conversations in Sagus Cliffs and the Valley of Dead Heroes, and also contributed to one of the companion characters, Callistege.

I'm going to go with Aligern since I have far more trust in Nathan Long.

 

[Prime Junta]

Aligern and Callistege were both kind of bland in the beta.

 

[Sacred82]

Does anybody have the Numale infographic handy

wait should this be in the WL3 thread

ah because this is a board of shills & plants we have "general discussion" threads for development studios. How could I forget

Isn't this where Codexers are supposed to posit false flag, etc.? :D

Clearly other RPG developers are getting nervous as TTON nears release!

Actually that was a message from Codex after latest TToN beta patch.

 

[MRY]

A few minutes before the car hit the restaurant, though, a message came up on Brian's iPhone: "A car will be crashing through into the restaurant in a few moments. Here are some options you could take to avoid getting hit..."

 

[Infinitron]

Oh my, he's actually going to do a VR game.

 

[janjetina]

The cucks sent me a "happy holidays" newsletter. They can't even wish a merry Christmas properly.

 

[Roguey]

What a sucker, my developer grapevine tells me VR's already DOA.

Porn will save it.

https://invidiousinteractive.com/

Hidden (?) games page lists his works in inXile.

It looks like he doesn't left inXile: https://www.linkedin.com/in/searanox

 

[FeelTheRads]

Old already. He registered that trainwreck some time ago, guess he only now decided to make it public with that lame tweet. DURR I GUESS I HAVE CUMPANY PLZ PAY ATTENSHUN TO ME

 

[DosBuster]

He's probably started a company that other developers outsource certain elements of their game to that they don't have time to handle, or they'll port games for big publishers. Hence why inXile's games are under the website banner.

I am very skeptical of this being a success; for one, these types of studios that do outsourcing or consulting are run by people with 15-20 years of experience and have been around doing this type of work for years now. I just looked up video game design consultants, and they are all people with 15+ years and who came from big studios like Ubisoft.

 

[PlanHex]

invidious
adjective
1.
calculated to create ill will or resentment or give offense; hateful:
invidious remarks.
2.
offensively or unfairly discriminating; injurious:
invidious comparisons.
3.
causing or tending to cause animosity, resentment, or envy:

4.
Obsolete. envious.

This doesn't seem like a very good name for a company.

Findley says their hiring in the New Orleans studio moved ahead of schedule. He adds that inXile Entertainment established more valuable contacts in New Orleans in one year than it did through decades in Newport Beach, California.

“My goal was to get to 20 people in our office by the end of our first year, and we were able to do it in less than four months,” Findley says. “We now have 25 people. All of these hires are actual game developer positions from engineers to 3D artists.

“One of the best traits of the city is the combination of the qualities of a big city with the feel of a smaller city. Every single one of our employees has a commute that is the shortest of their lives. The impact to people’s quality of life that comes with this is amazing, and I can see it on their smiling faces every time they get to work.”

 

[Fry]

So... a place with no significant game development scene is somehow overflowing with game devs?

Hmm.
