For the 1000th time, I remember Wesley saying that the same static objects used from TDD are just placeholders for the new ones. And even though they would use them, it's not like the whole game is going to be bad because of some god damn walls.

So true, yet most people don't really read. That is why that happens. If they'd open their eyes for just a second longer...

Not to mention the fact that the Lead Artist for A Machine for Pigs, Wesley Tack has previously worked for DICE, on Mirrors Edge and Battlefield: Bad Company 2. Say what you want about those games, but the graphics were definitely top-notch, both in terms of aesthetics and in terms of technical quality. So I have complete faith that not only will AMfP be absolutely amazing, it will also look great.

Think of the positive side to it: It would be much worse, if nobody was talking about the game at all! By keeping the discussion alive, we add to the hype and thus hopefully make this game more succesful at launch. Big Grin

Now, I'm tired of this, let's try and change the topic to something less depressing, shall we? Wink

I don't know how many of you are frequently reading the devBlog (aaach what am I saying, you probably all do that...) but Thomas published a great pdf there a few days ago. It's about "the Self, Presence and Storytelling" and I found it a very interesting read... just a suggestion for a topic to discuss, y' know... ^^

...And why does this get you so mad? From what I've seen she's a very talented person when it comes to this stuff. How about you calm yourself and wait till it comes out to judge, kay?

Because apparently, Dear Esther is not a game and thus the music in it is not a "valid game music". Got it?

Are these real or fake videos? The game itself totally looks like Dark Descent, but those pig screams, and chainsaw sounds are maybe from A Machine For Pigs.

Read the description: "Music: Mikko Tarmia. Levels by me"
It's a aamfp look-alike custom story, nothing else

**GraphicsKid** · 08-24-2012, 08:31 PM

They're user-made. It looks to be a fan saying "what I want" from AAMFP.

**WesleyTack** · 08-24-2012, 09:16 PM

It looks nothing compared to what we have at this point. Nice try though!
