The lead artist of Dear Esther, Robert Briscoe, has revealed that he is currently working on a "STALKER-like" project in a podcast with Joe Martin on Unlimited Hyperbole.
RockPaperShotgun quoted him as saying: "I fancy doing something on my own, something entirely of my own creation. Dear Esther was a great project…[but] this time around? I’ve always had this idea in my head of this sort of open-world, STALKER-like game without weapons. With a horror aspect to it.
"I’ve never had the opportunity to it because the scope of it is so huge…I can’t even believe I’m contemplating doing it! It’s so unreal…but this is the whole thing with me: I want to see if it’s possible for just one person to make a game on a scale that’s probably never been done before…"
Let's hope it's one of those things that comes to fruition and doesn't simply remain a glint in his eye.
