A
post on NeoGAF from Respawn Entertainment's Drew McCoy reacts to conspiracy
theories suggesting that
Titanfall's positive reception is the result of
them bribing corrupt game journalists to favor the mech shooter (thanks
OXM via
VG247). Here's what he had to say:
Anyone who thinks we weren't
living in the shadow of decade+ old established franchises at our reveal at E3
are as crazy as their conspiracy theories of anyone getting paid off. We've had
to fight tooth and nail to have a game that anyone would even know existed, let
alone be excited for and want to create coverage of. I get it that its not for
everyone, but to say we're paying anyone off is downright insanity. Not to
mention the height of insulting.
