You’ve seen the videos, now it’s time to read the articles.
First up is an interview with game director Jerk Gustafsson featuring all the unflinching gossip and hard-hitting questions you’d expect from Lucasfilm.com.
Meanwhile, Entertainment Weekly confirms that Indy is being performed by Troy Baker, known for playing a guy name Joel in that game The Last of Us, and context clues suggest that people who are familiar with video games made since Obama’s second term are going to find that exciting. For the rest of us, we’ll be replacing all the lines in our heads with Doug Lee.
And while you’re at it you might as well check out the game’s press release over at the official Bethesda site, which also includes the first screenshots. Naturally, Mojo already has them all gallery’d up, because we pull out all the stops for our readership.
I also appreciate the fact that they didn’t use existing Indiana Jones music from the movies, but composed a new score, And then went the extra mile to record it with an orchestra. That decision alone gets my deepest respect!
I think I’ll give that game a chance and play the beginning. But probably I won’t get very far since I suck at action games ;-)
Perhaps I’ll watch the whole story afterwards in a let’s play video on YouTube ;-)
