Fun with thumbnails!
I wrote aboutFirewatch‘stopless teens, meaty hands, and mysteryway, way back at the beginning of this year (wanna feel old!?).
The gorgeous, narrative driven game from artist Olly Moss,Mark of the Ninjadesigner Nels Anderson, and season oneThe Walking Deadwriters and designers Sean Vanaman and Jake Rodkin seemed like it was doing that same GDC demo at PlayStation Experience, but IGN has some additional gameplay from after that section in the game.
And the “first” thumbnail looks like “fyrst” against the x-shaped beams; that’s that joke, explained. Not a great one, but mildly amusing. I watched enough to see that cardboard ranger, but I’m pretty content not seeing anymore ofFirewatch, especially with the dialogue focus, until I can play the whole thing for myself. But it’s so dang pretty I won’t hold it against you if you want to see more.
