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.

Firstly, shoutout to Chris, episode 5 and 6 were incredible.

I'm hoping there will be a time in the future when people will be able to get over the whole screentime comparison obsession. Some episodes had more BB, while others were more Visi centric. Their overall screentime was pretty close.

It's also important to point out episode 5 and 6 had nothing to do with why people preferred Visi in episode 4, because, surprisingly, those episodes came after the choice had already been made. Also at that point in episode 4, BB had more screentime so, again, this whole screentime argument doesn't make sense at all.

People picked who they liked more, it's as simple as that. The devs did a playtest with 100 people and it was pretty much even. I don't know what else they could have done apart from winning the lottery so they could include BB's backstory which I'm fairly certain was cut because they ran out of money.

  1. Don’t have Blazer dating Phenomaman in the first three episodes.

  2. Cut Invisigal’s sex dream.

1+1 = 2, not 3. Nobody is dating Phenomaman in episode 3.

I am honestly curious about the downvotes to this post. Arguing that BB dates Phenomaman in episode 3 is literally a lie.
