I hope Twigs will be just as entertaining as Mae was (also, do we know if they’re a boy or a girl yet?)

The PlayStation blog post you linked to earlier refers to Twigs as "he"

Very excited for this. Night in the Woods was a phenomenal experience.

Ah, I just checked and didn’t see a specific gender mentioned but I could have overlooked something. Thanks

I actually wouldn’t be surprised if they decided to tie this back into Night in the Woods somehow but either way I’m really looking forward to this and hope we get a release date soon (as I said, it probably can’t be that far in the future if it’s also getting a PS4 version)

I have a feeling Night In The Woods is somewhat stained mentally for them with the thing what happened and this is going to be thematically relevant but not actually connected at all.

Well the game’s set in 1919 so unless it specifically says otherwise there’s no indication at the moment that it CAN’T take place in the same universe either. Either way I’ll be curious to see where the story ultimately goes

Regardless of whether it turns out to be a direct prequel or merely a spiritual successor I’m just happy to finally be getting a new NitW esque game again (I was kind of worried about its future after the whole Alec debacle and the planned side story mentioned a while back getting cancelled)

Jeez, just feels like there's never any good news in the games industry anymore. I'm sure the individuals will go on to do other cool stuff of course but even just that small trailer which was mainly just a tone piece looked like it was extremely my jam and I'm bummed that's probably never gonna manifest into anything now.

Some more context as well. Hope they can make a good recovery, and am glad they're able to actually take time off for this.

Aw man, that's a bummer. I was really looking forward to that game. Very much hoping that person can recover from this and get better.

Damnit, I was looking forward to this too. Hopefully they make a quick recovery and these guys can get another project off the ground someday though

Yeah I know he talked vaguely about severe health problems finishing the last game as well. It's interesting he says it's probably viral in origin, I don't think I've heard that outside of COVID

I assume (especially based on his explanation) that the "two key members" leaving were Benson and his wife, not multiple sick people. I guess it's fair, if that is referring to some other team member, that they might not want to out themselves as such, though.

There was an artist that left the team not that long ago. So it might be in reference to that person. But yeah they've unfortunately had a lot of issues so hopefully things go better for them.

there's a few other viruses or groups of viruses that can cause severe permanent damage to the heart, or even target it directly (unlike covid, which is mostly targeting the lungs)

Man, this sucks! I was just rambling on about this game and it's themes to my buddies this weekend.

I was so excited to just the art style again.

I hope all involved get better though.

What a pisser. While I would have wanted the game, I obviously want the health of the creators first and foremost.
