You might not know the name in a household sense, but you'd certainly know his resume.
Eric Fenstermaker has worked on such iconic games as
Neverwinter Nights 2: Mask of the Betrayer,
Fallout: New Vegas and
South Park: The Stick of Truth, to name but a few, and he now joins the all-star team at
Something Wicked Games who's working on the
saliva-inducing Wyrdsong.
We still know as much about Wyrdsong as we did when we reported it per the link above, and while it's only early days into 2023 we can only hope the studio will give up some of its secrets soon. The appointment of Fenstermaker is a boon for sure, but likely speaks to just how far away this tantalising game might be. Throwing out wild guess, we'd have to put a minimum 2024, but more likely beyond at this stage. And the further away it is, the more we want it.
That said, making this announcement with the lone piece of art bodes well for more information coming soon, so stay tuned.
