Microsoft lawyers influenced Obsidian, resulting in the game becoming known as Pentiment

Pentiment developer recalled how a creative impulse ran into the lawyers of the multinational company Microsoft

В 2022 годуу вышло необычное приключение Pentiment. Как оказалось, у команды Obsidian Entertainment изначально было иное видение названия проекта.

Глава разработки Pentiment Джош Сойер поделился историей названия игры:

«Первоначальное нерабочее название Pentiment на самом деле было Palimpsest! Юристы Microsoft почувствовали потенциальные трудности с получением [прав на] это название, поэтому я переименовал игру в Pentiment».

(справка про слово Палимпсест / Palimpsest: «в древности так обозначалась рукопись, написанная на пергаменте, уже бывшем в подобном употреблении»).

Планов на сиквел Pentiment или что-то в этом роде у Джоша нет.
