I can dig it. The setting seems cool enough that it would be interesting to have more of a cinematic plot for the single player, but I guess if they pull off their goals with this multiplayer narrative then it will be the experience I want.

I don't get it. They're removing the option to select single player or multiplayer? They're taking away the need to be aware of your surroundings and simplifying things in the interest of 'fun'? The way he's describing these 'innovations' makes them seem pretty bad. Hopefully we'll get to see a demo video that shows this isn't a rail shooter with a crappy matchmaking/friendlist system for multiplayer

That HAS to have been his first interview of the day. Nobody is that enthusiastic saying the same things over and over again.

That guy was great.

Dude, Spring 2010 is going to be the best Spring ever if all the games come out that are supposed to.
You have Brink, Mass Effect 2, and Final Fantasy XIII. I doubt any of those game will come out then, but still it is still nice to think that Spring 2010 could be better than holiday 2009.

Great interview about a not-so-major game coming out. Some of the stuff he was talking about sounded really interesting. I know I am not the only one that has look down before jumping over a ledge in an fps.

Brink sounds interesting as hell. That Creative Director had a ton of cool ideas for the game, things I wouldn't have even guessed at implementing

They've got the right man for their creative director. He did a good job getting me interested, and apparently did with the rest of you too.

Now this is a guy who knows how to sell a game.

But then, the very name 'Bethesda' is enough to get me to open my wallet.

@Serker: Unless it's Paul Barnett of Mythic, haha.

Anyway, the interview was stellar! The guy knows his stuff, and kept sounding like AlexN here and there. Brink is gonna be interesting, let's see where they take it.

Watch it, after the alpha it'll be renamed Enemy Territory: Brink, and the factions will be the Nazis and Strogg.
