Clockwork Revolution Features True Reactivity, Says Fargo, Then Shares His Best Scene from the Game

inXile CEO Brian Fargo talked about the idea behind Clockwork Revolution and how it'll feature true reactivity based on players' actions.

"He's begging for his life. You can let him go, you can kill him, or you can kind of like shoot him and then halfway through go, okay, never mind. Forget it. When you come back to the present, he's not a serial killer, he's an advocate for victim's rights,"

"Or even something like that on a smaller scale. Maybe you went back to the past with a red hat and they're like, oh my God, we love your hat. You come back, and you started a fad. Everybody loves red hats now. It's that stuff I think is highly entertaining."

Sounds interesting from a choice, time travel mechanics. Be interesting to see how deep the mechanic goes.

Can't wait to see more.

That example alone is pretty god dam exciting, really hope they can pull of a game with multiple instances of cool scenarios like that, would be sickkk!!

Keeping my hype and expectations firmly in check though after the promise of starfield and forza fell well short of what was promised.

hope they smash it though, game looks pretty cool

That serial killer story snip got me even more hyped for this game!

I´m so glad that Brian decided and gave up on his plans to retire after InXile´s acquisition. He knew that XGS would allow him freedom to do whatever he wants with the necessary funds and technology, and that´s the reason why we might be getting an amazing new classic RPG IP from some of the best RPG minds in gaming!

Amazing times to be an RPG fan!

This game interests me some. I don’t like that they made a clone of Bioshock Infinite world and wished they made their own style of Steampunk.

But if the mechanics that this guy is talking about actually works and combat is well done I could be interested in this game.
Most of the Xbox games don’t interest me much at all so this one stands out a little for me. I’m sure it won’t be a system seller even if it’s good but that doesn’t mean much to me.

I take what devs say with a grain of salt as we have seen a lot of false promises for games and the end result isn’t close to what they talk about. But if done well I could actually buy a used Xbox X and a used copy of the game someday. That’s the most they would get from me. Second hand sales. I don’t expect much from Xbox and don’t trust much of what they say but who knows maybe this game is different. Not holding my breather heard lots of great things before Redfall came out and it was a big pile when released.

I don't mind Bioshock clones or Deus Ex clones or XCOM clones if they do it right and convince you to play them in the first place.

Your perspective is exhausting

J I agree with to a point but buying a used copy is pretty ridiculous to me. Not even rewarding xbox when they do something right is bad imo. If the game is good I'll buy it outright. Just like I bought xboxs other games outright like forza.

I used to owe most of my allegiance to playstation but now I'm pc playstation Nintendo. In that order. Doesn't mean I won't reward microsoft when they make a game I like though. That's how it's supposed to work. Being a fanboy to the point you have to advertise how you're not giving a company money to the other "team" is ridiculous in the age of pc

This is maybe one of ten interesting AAA titles to be shown this entire generation so far. I'd buy 1000 copies if it would show the industry that this is the type of games I want.

[neutralgamer1992]

This game has me very excited and curious

[Rimeskeem]

This game intrigued the hell out of me, definitely on my radar.

[Yui_Suzumiya]

This is definitely front and center on my radar!
