I'm having a bad case of "backlash to the backlash", so now I'm hunkering down in my bunker of 'yes BioShock Infinite was actually that goddamned good'. The Last of Us and GTA5 have their work cut out for them to snatch GOTY away, with Watch Underscore Dogs being the dark horse candidate. Or maybe some game that isn't even announced yet will blow everyone's minds. That'd be nice.
I have a feeling that this was the deal all along: Ron Gilbert comes to Double Fine, they let him make the Cave, they get his opinion on all other projects, and once the Cave is out, he's free to go.
Call me a cynical piece of shit, but I have a feeling people are going to be disappointed with this game. Something along the lines of "water downed action ruining their favorite franchise." Not that I want it to be a bad game. I hope it turns out awesome and people get the kind of stealth game they want.
I kind of feel this way as well. We're more than likely going to see things that the fans of this series will hate.
If there's any team that can do it, it'll be the one that made a goddamn new Deus Ex game that most people really liked.
@PoToSkull: If it does, it'll be a massive success. Telltale recently announced that they sold 8.5 million episodes, which means they almost sold 2 million full seasons.
I would honestly love to see a video feature of Alex going out on the streets of New York to show off certain parts of the city that are constantly recreated in games, and assessing the accuracy of, say, the equivalent of Central Park in GTA4.
@Ares42: Yeah, probably. I did this in the span of like 25 minutes + am pretty bad at basic math. I would not be surprised to find a couple mistakes in here.
