Sannom Posted February 14, 2010 Share Posted February 14, 2010 Nice! An intervention from Matt (I don't know much about the "Systems" part of developping a game, so it's good to learn more) and (perhaps) some information on AP on the side!

Sannom Posted April 11, 2010 Share Posted April 11, 2010 Interesting bits, thanks Funcroc. Matt still has his beard? What is the meaning of this? So the footage with him in that developper diary wasn't new? Weird that they didn't use it before if that's the case! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It almost seems like they're posting now old dev diaries.. which is.. strange I admit. Anyway, what Matt says is interesting, but if I can be completely honest seems also... pretty obvious stuff.

Sannom Posted April 11, 2010 Share Posted April 11, 2010 It almost seems like they're posting now old dev diaries.. which is.. strange I admit. The latest one had a lot of "interviews" that weren't new, but a good share of it was never shown before. The new PR agency must be using stuff that wasn't used before to create some of the new things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starwars Posted April 11, 2010 Share Posted April 11, 2010 Yeah, all the the interviews were probably recorded waaaaay back when the first dev diary came out. Then they probably splice that footage together with gameplay footage from the latest build. For example, didn't Fryda Wolff move on from Obsidian quite a while back?
