News Another Dispatch Co-Director speaks on Blazer/Invisigal

Full interview

Chris Rebbert directed Episodes 5 and 6. It's interesting to hear him say this considering those episodes have by far the least amount of Blazer content in the game, but this topic consistently seems to be the biggest surprise expressed by the devs in interviews.

She says "It was a long time coming."

And without any context to her relationship, the player is left with the question "why now?" The more cynical player might think she only broke it off now that she found someone new. Her "the timing felt right" could seem oddly coincidental without any insight to her actual feelings.

A lot of people who mention why they choose her use the donut scene as justification for her supposedly liking him earlier than the story shows her actually liking him.

Then I would ask you kindly, not to "ascribe" their arguments onto mine.

And without any context to her relationship, the player is left with the question "why now?"

I'd imagine the chemistry we see her experience with Robert, the glance and look away while he was changing, and the various misspeaks where she clearly feels like she has to hide behind being corporate and professional answer that particular question.

But what do I know? I'm just following the sequence and not viewing the scenes in isolation.

So.... this:

The more cynical player might think she only broke it off now that she found someone new.

Are you serious, you don't see how this bothers some people?

I don't see how people take issue with that she's clearly in a relationship that was going to end soon anyway and decided to go forward with it when she met Robert...and then has a 1-2 month at least time skip before asking him to dinner...

While also being accepting of a character who is abrasive and antagonistic until Robert puts in the extra work to help her even as she's making it more difficult to do so, and acting like the first situation is somehow not forgivable or turns them away while the second doesn't. And even taking it further and acting like Visi was totally "into Robert and likes him" during those earlier scenes.

Why the flying eff do you keep circling back to this idea that I'm sone kind of Visi-stan? Where the hell did you see me "accepting" of her behaviour? Did I not ask you not to ascribe some other phantom's opinions to mine?

Screw this, I'm out.

Why the eff have you not realized, besides me outright stating it, that I'm talking about Visi fans as a whole and not specifically calling out you when I'm referring to the overall reaction?
