Creator of A Way Out and It Takes Two: “Cyberpunk 2077 Received Too Much Unfair Criticism”
Geoff Keighley spoke live with Josef Fares, founder of A Way Out Hazelight Studios. She is now preparing to release her next project, It Takes Two, which became the conversation topic. When the conversation came to an end, users from the chat started asking questions to Yusef Fares. In the process, the topic of Cyberpunk 2077 was raised, and the head of Hazelight spoke about the situation around the action role-playing game from CD Projekt RED.
According to The Gamer portal, citing the source, Yousef Fares was asked how the creation of It Takes Two went in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic. The leader replied that he was able to complete the motion capture sessions between quarantines. And since it was the most difficult part of the self-isolation production, Hazelight Studios managed to finish the game on time.
Then the conversation touched on the transfer of projects in general and Cyberpunk 2077 in particular. When discussing bugs and problems in the recent action RPG from CD Projekt RED, Youssef Fares responded with the following words: “Cyberpunk has received too much unfair criticism. ” The head of Hazelight also noted that users staged a “witch hunt. ” Probably, the director was referring to the death threats that the developers from CD Projekt RED received after the release of Cyberpunk 2077.
Recall: It Takes Two will be released on March 26, 2021, on PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, and Series S.
