Nah, we wouldn't have been able to make a game like Ori otherwise. I already have to tip my hat to Microsoft simply because it wasn't possible for most people (Including Koji Igarashi) to make a AAA Metroidvania... But Microsoft believed in our vision, funded Ori and did the distribution, so really, it was a really good deal fo rus and we're happy with our decision.

Microsoft has been putting a lot of weight behind Ori after E3 last year, so that's obviously a cool thing for us.

Also, I hope MS will end up doing more with the actual IP. I'd love to see Ori being adapted to film, comic books, etc. - I think the world we crafted has an enormous amount of potential and I hope they're making use of all the IPs they're grabbing

I would buy the hell out of a plushie.

Just throwing that out there.

Ton of Ori love going on at PAX East

Well we certainly need a Funko Pop version for sure!

I would buy an Ori Halloween costume for my baby daughter.

Ori and The Blind Forest gameplay in a few minutes.

I cannot wait for this game. I have listened to that Behind the Music video way too many times. So close now.

Any chance of a shot of the Ori booth at PAX East Banjo? I am actually in Boston, but decided not to go this year.

So, is the PC version going to be Steam-only, or can we expect a GOG release as well?

 

[cool_dude]

Pretty excited, and pretty cheap too!

 

[gus-gus]

So from those following the game PC or Xbox one version? Which is the best or are they about the same.

 

[SEGAvangelist]

Ready to throw money at this. Where is my XB1 preload?

Don't think there's gonna be any difference. Except free controller choice on PC

About the same. X1 is going to be 1080p/60fps, so unless your rig can push it higher, the difference is pretty negligible.

Thanks, PC I have is pretty nice. I'll make a decision in the next few day's. Probably going PC though. I have a Samsung 34" ultrawide that I got about a month ago. Love gaming on it.

Honest Question.

Do ya'll at moon studios plan on doing anything else with the IP after the first game (should it be successful), or do ya'll plan to expand and tackle a whole new project and/or genera?
Also, are there any plans floating around for Ori expansion/DLC?

 

[Corpsepyre]

Holy shit! The soundtrack is so good

Oh man, this is brilliant. I'll be having this OST in my playlist for a month if the rest of it's this good!

 

[blakep267]

Imagine if they would've gotten Joe Hisaishi to do a score with some Princess mononoke vibes. too good to be true

Just saw this gameplay footage, and damn, it looks beautiful, and the section from 5 mins onwards really is a mind-bender.

 

[VlaudTheImpaler]

So uh, thomas...

Please?

Yeah, I saw this a couple days ago and went crazy looking for a way to buy... I wept when I found out it was only through a Raffle... I never win anything.

Please Thomas, if you could use your powers to get MS to make a special edition run of this controller I would owe you one... anything... I'll sign on the dotted line...
