These are great! I love how they’re all so different. The French version is really scary (in a nice way) with the extremes of emotion in the vocals. It’s really cool to see how each artist has added their own personality to Harry Winter’s original until we reach Bjork’s polished production. Maybe as the System develops their personality, we’ll get a new version in August : D
Maybe this is the moment The System’s reveals its true self through music under stress, reacting to dealing with extreme danger, like how HAL9000 reverted to singing ‘Daisy daisy’:
Kinda cool the system adopted Bjork’s modern digital version which makes perfect sense as it yearns to be ‘It’s Oh So Quiet’. Especially with the chorus’ ominous lyrics :
You fall in love, zing, boom
The sky up above, zing, boom
Is caving in, wow bam!

A game could go Gold anytime, huh?

This is very interesting…

But would a game go gold with no press preceding it?
(I’ll be honest that HG seems more likely to hint something big is coming, but be very coy as to what it is, this seems very… not that)

It does seem like it could just be a poor translation. Still very interesting how it is worded.

These are good questions but, after what happened with NMS, they may approach this release in a very different way
A topic that often comes up here, they are not desperate for funds. They have complete control. They could choose a very unique release.

Archie was very much replying to me in speedy broken english mode rather than their usual proofed long form so I wouldnt read too much into it. I also really like when they speak this way, real endearing and humanising. Typos and all. Reminds me of all my international friends who emigrated here over the years <3
Hello Games release LNF tomorrow as a 12 month timed exclusive to people on board the ISS as a way to say thank you to Space for all its given them

It would be amazing if those of us who already know each other were in some sort of NDA early testing. They could simply put us into a Mod section here where none could see our chatter. They could communicate directly with us. We could chat and discuss various feature and issues as a group without giving anything away. It would be the ideal setup.

Is this your way of saying you’re already in one and getting around the NDA without breaching it?

I wish. I think it is all the fires in The Odyssey movie…I keep seeing torches and braziers

I was thinking the same thing!

So, hypothetically speaking, if you were in an NDA, what kinds of things would you not tell us about the game?

I would not tell you how amazing it is to have an entire planet with no griefers. One planet filled with players who enjoy journeying together.
Then I would sing the coca cola song
Of course this is all a pipe dream

Or that’s 2 weeks they celebrate the 10th anniversary and Sean just “wake up”

Guy must be in serious crunch mode on two games or something to miss that anniversary

Maybe Sean is System and had to wait until Operators “save the date” before posting the pic… 
Anyway, each time I see this photo I can’t avoid to think “here are the first 16”.
