According to a French journalist, it seems that the first part is really perfect. But it's only perfect because they did it 50 times, which is not the case for the rest of the game. So to avoid a Torment, well they keep working on it. (and Robert Kurvitz seems to be a fucking perfectionist from hell).

The obvious reason for why it is so late is because they are also trying to put Keanu Reeves into their game. He is going to be playing a gun ho detective that you get to call to help you once per game. But you have to kill his dog first. And if you don't manage to make it look like the bad guys did it, he kills you first.

Nah, I say they're gunning for Nicholas Cage. Which seems more perfect the more I think about it. Especially now that Keanu is mainstream again, you gotta have something for the hipster target audience to enjoy.

Actually, given that people accidentally realised Nick Cage is one of the best faces for creating deepfakes.....

... because they are going back and forth. It's obvious they are questioning design decisions and making stuff up along the way.

Should have stuck with the original vision of the game.

That’s an approach that works well. Look what Axl Rose did with “Chinese Democracy”. My mom’s favorite album!

Make the game like Divinity: Original Sin with better humour and writing.

How many articles will come out saying the exact same things before the game releases?
