GI Show - Interview with Lorne
 
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oiv16y2t0Ck

Quite an interesting video. Not much new learnt but Lorne claims he "has re-written Abe's Exoddus", would that imply a new script has been finished? Or does he mean just in his head? Have a watch. "It's completely new - but inspired by the original"

He said: "doing what was intended". But the thing is: he already DID what was intended with Exoddus (unlike MO).

The interviewer seems "shy" but he tries to ask good questions nonetheless.

I do feel that story-wise Exoddus was a little weak, interested to see how they fix that with Soulstorm.

I also squee'd internally just a bit when he mentioned Fangus and Stranger 2. Glad to see those are still on the radar. One of these days...

Agreed. It's not so much "what he intended" as it is just trying to make the experience better.

Whoa, did Lorne just said crowd funding was probably going to be used for the game coming after SoulStorm? Oh man, this is going to ruin me. :p

Lanning seems to get "defensive" when the interviewer asks questions about SoulStorm.

It's really interesting to hear what LL has to say about hollywood, FB and such. Intriuging and funny
And I'm curious to see what depth and changes of story that will be brought to Soulstorm since he isn't pushed for an immediate release (save by fervent OWFS much like melol). Think he is movining away from the side scroller but how strange would that be?
