It’s “simmering” apparently
There are many unsightly euphemisms for the various stages of game development.
But now there’s a new front-runner, “simmering”.
You know what’s simmering?
Quantic Dream’sStar Wars: Eclipse, that’s what.
“Can I say it still exists?
“It’s just not ready.
It’s simmering.”
Eclipse slid from view amidstQuantic’s purchase by NetEase in 2021.
You might say that it was eclipsed, hah hah hah.
But according to Pendse, the game is still cooking.
“There’s no game over.
But what we’ve been doing is even more ramping up our expertise in the gameplay arena.”
Press X to High Ground?
And it’s the same exact same thing with Star Wars Eclipse.
It’s all about the bubbles, I think.
Too many bubbles, and you’re boiling that pasta to sludge.
Too few bubbles, and you’re just washing it.
But where do you draw the line?
There’s probably a dialogue puzzle in this.
Quantic remain dogged byreports of a toxic workplace culture.
