The boss of Motive, Patrick Klaus, was trying to figure what's next for the studio. How long has the remake been the works, and when was it decided that Motive would tackle it?Ĭampos-Oriola: The remake was decided just after when Squadron was finishing. Personally, that's why I love that game so much.
And I think that's part of Dead Space's legacy. Like, after that survival horror starts to be much more immersive. And I think that also made the survival horror genre evolve. And at that moment, that level of immersion only in FPS games, and they really managed to push that level of immersion inside not only a third-person game, but also inside of survival. And the level of immersion that were able to achieve through a third-person shooter. Some of how the core gameplay was working, but also more especially around the level of immersion. And when Dead Space came out, it was like, a blast. Like, when the original came out, I was working in a different company at the time and working on some first-person shooter. Roman Campos-Oriola: I’m a big fan of Dead Space. Game Informer: Roman, what’s your personal history with Dead Space prior to this project? We also ask Campos-Oriola about the possibility of a Dead Space 2 remake. Additionally, he reveals the limitations Visceral faced while developing the original that the remake overcame and whether or not he was contacted to help with the project. The ex-Visceral designer has beaten the remake multiple times and shares the standout elements of Motive’s version. Joining the discussion is Bret Robbins, creative director of the original Dead Space. To learn more about how the remake came together, we had a conversation with Motive Studios’ Roman Campos-Oriola, the creative director of the Dead Space remake, to reflect on the game’s development and success. Dead Space is a great case study, as Motive Studios smartly updated Visceral Games’ successful template while preserving its most beloved elements (here’s our review). Remakes can offer new creative minds the chance to inject old ideas with fresh reinventions.
