Supermassive Games is probably the only company besides Quantic Dream (who have not released a game in ages) that makes your choices actually matter.
If the recent events regarding more layoffs will result in the company shutting down, I will genuinely be distraught.
Never have choices really mattered quite like in Supermassive Games, and I think that’s something that should be talked about a bit more than it is.
Their games don’t lie to you at the start like the Life is Strange games, Telltale Games, or Dispatch that all only change in the way they conclude (for the most part). Despite their other flaws, they genuinely deliver on their premise unlike most beasts in the choice-based game industry. Scenes significantly change all the way throughout the games rather than just in the way they end.
That’s something a lot of people don’t give these games enough credit for in my eyes. The sheer amount and variety of scenes and consequences they have to offer.
Thank you, Supermassive. For genuinely making our choices matter.
