    This kind of behaviour is a win from the player’s perspective too, no hype for a game that might never happen or might come out after 11 years and still be crap, heh

      I see you don’t know who Lucas Pope is or what his previews consisted of. I really liked his blogposts about designing a game for a retro handheld console that really doesn’t seem worth buying. His dev blog gave me more vivid appreciation for the art of games.

      I really hope he’ll publish the dev blogs after the game.

        Thanks for the recommendation about his Dev blogs — I didn’t know he had done these, and they look really cool; Papers, Please is one of my favourite games, so I’m always keen to peer behind the scenes

        Here’s a link, if anyone else is interested. This might not be the specific post OP was talking about, but you’ll be able to find it from here if not

      I don’t think there’s any chance of Lucas Pope putting out a crap game. A great game that’s incredibly niche, I could see that though.
