They got a publisher to pay for localization and they still cut one of the languages. Fargo acts like he had a lot of leverage, but the KS budget is long gone by now and not having translations would significantly hurt sales. I wouldn't be surprised if he got a bad deal, but then again the publisher is pretty bad, so who knows.Delayed for 26 months, actually.A lot of problems for the fans with this game:
- first they delay the game 1 year due to localization;
- then they announce console version;
- then publisher;
- then the problem with the CE;
- now the italian version is no more.
Also:
- Project Lead fired;
- cut companions;
- cut factions;
- more cut content Fargo didn't want to mention.
At this rate, there's probably a lot of stretch goal content they won't deliver. I'm curious to see all the areas added as stretch goals, specially the "second major city".
It's all for the better, bro. Ask, Inshillitron. "It's just like PST". PST had troubled development so it's only natural that this one is the same.
Going by all this stuff, Fargo's totally honest sounding "this publisher deal is totally different, right? not like the others, right?" looks like more bullshit that ever.
More than likely he had to do a pretty shitty deal with Techland to get them to give him money.
Yes, it's supposed to be this one:I'm curious to see all the areas added as stretch goals, specially the "second major city".
The underwater one, right?
We saw the PC swimming around in an underwater area that looks like it, so we know it's going to be in, but it'll be interesting to see if the same lack of content has befallen it as PoE's "second major city".
However, the last time they mentioned the second city was in January 2015, and the "World of Numenera" trailer, which shows several of the game's locations, doesn't mention the Oasis at all:
They did show the Sunken Market with that exact art on 2 January 2017 on Facebook.
