An honest question.
Why hasn’t anyone tried to make a documentary on video game DEVELOPMENT?
I’m not talking some sort of post-mortem, deeply controlled Q&A deal. I want to see somebody tag along during ACTUAL development and tell the story of how games are really made.
I promise there are all sorts of indie-film honors just WAITING for the Bright Spark who first manages to pull it off.
I’ve asked. Well, not about the movie-making but about writing a book/series of articles/following along etc. The response has usually been something similar to how people don’t want to see sausages or laws getting made. And a resounding ‘no’.
Well the obvious answer from following WAR’s development would be… because the evil marketing department wouldn’t approve.
