Alex Brandon leaving Obsidian

为什么每次来都看到坏消息。。。

 

[Zoma]

Its expressing his nerdrage in mainland terms: Why is it whenever I come here I get to hear bad news?!

[deleteduser]

I guess you guys haven't heard about how Michael Thorton gets from his safehouses to his missions, then. It's pretty "rad".

 

I sense an Ostrich Hammer.

Alpha Protocol DLC: Skateboard Armour

[WILL THE ALMIGHTY]

He's pretty new in the biz then. We'll see.

 

This will be interesting, seeing as how most of his work consist of Tony Hawk games.

Let me guess: hoverboard, right? Or do we get a fancy car ala James Bond? Maybe we just steal one on the street like Jason Bourne? Or do we have the entire CTU come in by helicopter to pick us up ala Jack Bauer?

To all the nerds reading this because of the Alpha Protocol video

 

I was miscredited for reasons unknown. Obsidian's current Audio Director is one Scott Lawlor, who is ****ing fantastic and I respect him a great deal. Alongside Andrew Dearing, whom we hired from Pandemic just a couple of months ago, we are a goddamned dream team and we're busting our asses to deliver Alpha Protocol to ya'll in a decent condition.

 

There are bombs and bass blasting off either side of me as I speak, here at the Obsidian office dungeon... >.>

 

I am merely a Sound Designer, and once Alpha Protocol is shipped I get to be a full time Lead for Audio on Fallout: New Vegas. I cannot wait for that. ^_^

 

Hope that clears things up!

So did he leave the company or did he not? If he did then how the hell can he be a sound designer for AP?

There, there. I'm here now.

Alex Brandon is a good composer, he made the soundtrack for some games produced by Epic (Unreal, Unreal Tournament and other games based upon the Unreal engine) together with Michiel van den Bos.

This sucks. I really wonder what is going on at Obsidian with all the leaves and new hires. People are vanishing so fast, that can't be a good thing.

[Pop]

The rate of turnover in the gaming industry's pretty high as a rule.

[Gfted1]

Sure, but it sure didnt seem like Ms. Wolff left on her own accord what with apparently scrambling for a job.

[Tigranes]

I'm pretty sure twitter and whatnot lets us know more about these departures, so that the turnover rate seems higher.

Or it could be normal turnover for a company with 120+ people, many of which are only contracted.

[Pop]

As indicated here, Wolff is contracted for another 2 months or so. Hopefully the arrangement will get renewed. Edited May 29, 2009 by Pop
