Spector Talks Deus Ex Sequel
Thanks to GameSpy for their interview with Deus Ex creator Warren Spector regarding the eagerly-awaited FPS sequel, Deus Ex: Invisible War. Spector discusses the equal co-development of the different DX2 versions ("We started right at the outset wanting to make a game simultaneously for both the Xbox and the PC"), the state of the US games industry ("The costs of doing business and the risks are so high that everybody's getting super conservative"), and what needs to evolve in the future ("I think that the challenges for us, the places where we really didn't even try, are in the areas of non-combat character interaction.")
From the article: and to be honest, most of my gaming is done on the console, especially since that seems where most of the innovation seems to be.
Warren Spector said that. Warren fucking Spector! One of the greatest innovators in electronic gaming period! All his tremendous innovation has been on PC so far. So this is a VERY ironic thing for him to say.
no thanks
