Bjorn Posted December 11, 2013 So I was reading through Joystiq's interview with Steve Gaynor, and there was this answer: When you're daydreaming about the "next big thing", what are you listening to? Patsy Cline, Loretta Lynn, Dolly Parton, June Carter ... for reasons that I'll be able to elaborate on sometime in the not-too-distant future. I'd say he's working on a broken family simulator (because country music), but that seems a little obvious and repetitive. Whatever the influence of classic female country singers is, I'm excited for it. I hated that music when I was a kid, as it was all my grandad listened to when I was around him. But as an adult I've come around to loving it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jmbossy Posted December 11, 2013 To be perfectly honest, and obviously not to discount whatever they do intend to work on, I hope the fullbright company's next game is something different than gone home. Obviously it will utilize the better aspects of their lineage, but I don't really want another home/family to explore. I was personally hoping they would do a first person LA noire type game, where you're just charged with examining crime scene(s). There would be stories to tell, and I feel that the team could make the visceral nature of one of those games feel genuine (ie, you feel for the departed). Though that doesn't seem to fit with Dolly Parton... Either way I'm happy to support whatever they do next Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nappi Posted December 11, 2013 I'm definitely going to pre-order the next installment in the Gone Home franchise, even if they developers only update the graphics and add a couple of new ghost types and recording mediums. My only wish is that they call it Gone Home: Origins. Seriously though, I'm eager to hear what Steve and Fullbright are up to next. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

posh_somme Posted December 11, 2013 i was hoping steve gaynor's tumblr would be indicative of influences for his next game, but i guess not this time?? unless you play as resurrected country music singers who are now cyborgs and must eliminate/hack mecha taylor swift and her cyber-corporate army. a boy can dream Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
