Huh. I thought Mitsoda was the lead writer, but it's Ellison. Bad news for Roguey.
the rumour mills claim someone played dead state in the officeI thought Cara Ellison was supposed to be there to work on some side quests. When did she become lead narrative designer?

altho the idea ellison was just the side quest person might be a misconception from how she described the 'hunting thin bloods' side quest as her favorite work on the game at that point, 5 months ago

day one. or at least day one since it was announced.I thought Cara Ellison was supposed to be there to work on some side quests. When did she become lead narrative designer?
she's always been referred to as a lead narrative designer, but I don't think "lead writer" was ever her title iirc. make of that what you will.Those labels might be incorrect.
yep, you're right.The previews that were published when the game was announced said that Brian Mitsoda was the lead narrative designer. Those previews also described Cara Ellison as a "senior writer".
Senior just means old. She is in the staff and important as grandpa Simpson.The previews that were published when the game was announced said that Brian Mitsoda was the lead narrative designer. Those previews also described Cara Ellison as a "senior writer".
1 - Player is already in a clan in this video. He casts tremere spells.Two things on the gameplay footage:
1 - Are thinbloods supposed to be that strong? wtf?
2 - Gang members models are copy pasted like Sabbath vamps were in bloodlines1. Hope it's just because alpha otherwise, decline
The first gameplay video of TOW from last year looked better than this.I feel like some people aren't mentally factoring in that this is a 2020 game. They're putting it in the same mental category as The Outer Worlds which is coming out this year became both games have shown gameplay.

I mean you answered your own questionBut primarily, why would they make Cara the lead while demoting Brian, when they're banking everything on successful resurrection of the crown jewel in their WoD acquisition?
She's got next to no experience, and probably got her job with a combination of being an RPS journo who was championing the original game for years and being a lighting rod for potential SJW wrath.
It turned out she's also better than Brian in PR talk, but that hardly qualifies her to go over Brian.
