2014, really?

Well, its going to be a very short wait if you think about it. We are getting a machine for pigs in early 2013, then the new game in 2014. The rate of games coming out for frictional at this point, is very very high . Pretty much right after we get a AMFP we are going to get a new game instead of waiting 2-3 years like it used to be. And, who knows, maybe it will stay that way if they will stay in connections with TheChineseRoom. Though, the chances of that happening seem a little far fetched to be honest, but its still something that could happen. Its a very good way of for frictional to deliver games we love without them having to force themselves or rehash anything.

Their development philosophies are so similar that we could easily see a partnership staying for a long time coming. Not sure though about the game release time spans staying like it is at this moment. But we as frictional gamers have a good future to look forward too . After the 3.6 million (and counting) dollars they have made off of Amnesia and with sales such as 10,000 units a month, they are going to be happy and be able to do quite a bit more.

They have plenty of resources to innovate and push themselves forward. We should expect to see really good things coming in the future. They have more employees that can specialize in pacific areas of development. Making a game will be easier, faster and the quality should increase because now Thomas doesn't have to do everything himself and rush anymore. The best has yet to come people...for real. This is just the beginning.
