Heavy Rain's David Cage to deliver keynote at GDC Europe
Administrators of the European version of the Game Developers Conference
just revealed yet another keynote speaker for the event -- not at all shockingly, the speaker is Quantic Dream CEO and founder David Cage, whose company has released titles such as
Omikron: The Nomad Soul and
Fahrenheit (or
Indigo Prophecy, as it was known in the States), and is currently hard at work on
Heavy Rain. Considering said studio is based out of Paris, we
suppose Cage is European enough to keynote the conference.
Cage's address sounds pretty interesting -- it's titled "Writing Interactive Narrative For A Mature Audience." Considering what we've seen of
Heavy Rain, he's probably the right person to deliver such a speech. However, considering what we remember of
Indigo Prophecy, the first half of the speech will likely be gripping and insightful, and the second half will be
nigh-incomprehensible. We fully expect to hear Illuminati conspiracy theories spoken in Esperanto.
Backwards.
