RE: Amnesia: A Machine For Pigs Discussion Topic Part 2

A news article about the delay has been updated with a message from Dan Pinchbeck:

http://www.polygon.com/2013/6/5/4400280/...e-for-pigs

Dan Pinchbeck Wrote:One of the great things about being an indie developer is you can really spend the time you want and need on a game without the pressure to release by a certain point. So there's a lot going on right now that is mainly optimisation and polish. One of the things that's important about the Amnesia franchise is you get a top grade game that runs on quite low spec machines, and as we've pushed upwards with the visual quality of Pigs, it's quite a technical challenge making sure that you can drive specs down whilst driving fidelity up. That takes time to get really right, but it's an investment that's worth doing.

Plus we have localisation going on and that takes time, and it's a great opportunity to revisit parts of the game and tweak and improve here and there, which you don't often get a chance to do. So we're taking advantage of the necessary delay caused by optimising the game technically to also get another loop round on the gameplay and player experience, which is a brilliant opportunity. So it's all good really - we know fans are being super patient and we really appreciate that, but I can absolutely guarantee the delay is 100 percent worth it.

Good.
PC should have their own exclusives.

It's actually a way of saying politely: WAIT DAMMIT! Tongue

Spoiler below!
By saying that you are patient, he "makes" you patient because you want to keep what he said true! - just a fun theory Smile

Now the question is whether FCs will be possible(without having to replace/backup files).
Of course we cant know this before the game is out ,since as far as I know it was not something ATDD supported, but simply something that happened to be possible. (Also did the justine patch not have an influence as well?)

Haha, I love it. It must be true, because why not?
