Q: How much work is left to be done with art direction?
A: Not much. We're just about done.
Q: Is getting the bodies to stay on screen and not dissapear after being killed a concern your working on fixing?
A: Yes, most definently. We will have tons of different death animations depending on how the enemy was killed and with what weapon.
Q:When is the next Developer's Diary coming?
A: We will see. It's not really that hard to do.
Q:Will there be a Collectors Edition or perks for reserving the game?
A: We're thinking about some. Details are still being ironed out.
Q: Is this an M rated or Teen rated game?
A: We're shooting for Teen but if it gets an M then oh well!
Q: What do you have in mind in conjuction with the publisher to hype the game, for example gaming tours, billboards, commercials, gamestop kiosk demo's, etc?
A: Those are exactly what we had in mind.
Q:Will you be implementing tons of scripted events in the environment to make the single player experience more cinematic?
A: There are some scripted events for sure but we're more focused on the core gameplay! So far its starting to feel like an action movie (chuckles)
Q:Will there be ragdoll?
A: No! We fell it's more satisfying to give everything different death animations.
Q:Sound is very important to me, so I want to know what are you doing special with the sound design? How will you make up for the lack of digital audio on Wii?
A: Well, like the visuals, we're going to out do every game on the platform in terms of audio. Also, it will be at the highest possible quality.
Great job Wiinewd. Lots of people seem to be reading this
