However, he said, the game could not exist within the Valve Business Model, oriented for fast.
< p > in conversation with Quad Damage Colonntanio explained that Valve has allocated Arkane for 12 months, but 12 months to create something is not enough. As a result, Arkane had an alpha version. The game could be gone from start to end, and there were several customized Katszen, but to release a project in this form, of course, it is impossible.
< P > “We needed at least six months and better a year. Valve had a very clear business plan for these episodes. They tried to adjust the series, but it didn't work because the costs were too high.”
~ < p > But the game was wonderful, recognizes colontanio: “I think, if someone from Valve tried it, they would probably agree with that.”
< p > However, Ravenholm has become an important part of Arkane's history. Thanks to this project, many wonderful specialists joined the studio. Subsequently Ravenholm became a “ritual” for new employees, they had to test the game: “People really loved it, it was a good association.”
