Insomniac CEO Ted Price says in a new interview that this is a lot harder to do these days.
The Insomniac of today is mostly known for theSpider-Man games.
and one Ratchet and Clank game.
Still no Resistance reboot orSunset Overdrivesequel, sadly.
Price isn’t all doom and gloom.
He says “I don’t think the agility has changed at all.
However, he does think “the risk profiles have changed significantly.
That includes time, people, money, and that increases risk.”
I think that keeps us all engaged and excited about what we do.
But at the same time the barriers to entry into a new genre are significantly higher.”
There are plenty of examples ofdevelopers that made huge genre and tone shifts between games.
My favorite example is Creative Assembly going fromRTS gamesto the fantastic first-person horror ofAlien Isolation.
More of this, hey.
