Mystery Game X - Gabriel Knight: Sins of the Fathers, 20th Anniversary Edition
Did she say that (the publisher is also the developer)? I don’t doubt you, I just don’t recall it. Was it in the video or posted somewhere?
hmm i could be wrong about that, having difficulty finding the source

I think you’re a spy from the publisher sent to throw off our scent!
Robert Holmes on kickstarter: The CSG members on $50 and above will receive the full game, not just one episode.
I was very worried about this, so I’m glad that’s settled. You know, I never thought this was much of a possibility at all, but now I’m starting to think more and more this is going to be some kind of game in the Gabriel Knight universe, though possibly not GK4 per se. The only other possibility that makes any kind of sense would be a Gray Matter sequel of sorts, but I think that is highly unlikely since that was a choice in the original selection and it wasn’t chosen.
It also seems to me ironically that the level of anticipation at this point is much higher for MGX than for Moebius.
I think MGX needs to make an appearance in the official hype-o-meter, likely in the top 5.
There is no way that Phoenix is who she is working with for MGX. They are a publicity machine and there is no way they could keep quiet about something like this for even 5 mins let alone until a month or so before release!

Does anyone else wonder about the $5000 pledge? ‘A character design of you as a character in Gabriel Knight.’
That kinda makes me jump to conclusions…
Jatsie, where is Jane’s quote coming from?
The Pinkerton Road forums.

What?
What I mean is that, having followed the progress of TSL and Cognition etc. I am well aware from the regular e-mails and website/otherwise online announcements that they are not backwards in coming forwards in terms of information about their games.
I don’t say that as a bad thing, I just mean that if they were developing/publishing something else themselves in their own right, I cannot imagine for a second that they would want to hold off announcing the game, news of it would be everywhere!
As I say this isn’t a criticism, they are clearly very focused on, and good at, publicity and hence my “publicity machine” comment.

If they were under contract not to talk, then I doubt they would talk, as it could have legal implications.

Ah ok, agreed. And yes it’s a good thing; it’s a small studio after all. They need all the exposure they can get.

Of course, this is often used in many industries, not just gaming. It’s often referred to as an embargo. I’d imagine if the game is as huge as Jane is bigging it up to be, this will most definitely be the case.
If it is GK (in any form) and I was the creator of the whole series, I’d want nobody but myself to tell the world about it. I’d want everyone to hear it from my mouth/keyboard.
I’m on a whole new adventure.
Growing a mustache?
No. Bigger than that.
A beard?!?
You have an embargo on things like say publishing a review of films, tv, games, etc. which there’s no specific legal contract on, where as you have NDA’s (Non-Disclosure Agreement) for legally binding “shut up or we’ll sue you” contracts.
MGX is definitely GK-related. The only questions are whether it’s a GK1 remake or new story, and who’s developing it.

Yeah, I really don’t know either. I would think Telltale, but if that’s been shot down, it could be anyone. Activision is almost certainly the publisher, though.
She said it’s episodic, though, so that points to new story rather than remake. I think we can say that confidently at this point, at least.
I think I could hazard an informed guess that the developer is Telltale, and it’s a new story.
unfortunately, jane jensen confirmed in the backer forum on the update post that it is not telltale. My best wild guess of the moment is something like big fish games.

foiled again!!! curses.
