During a recent interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Syfy president Dave Howe opened up about the Defiance video game, stateing:
“We built a video game together with a series -- it was a very risky, long-term project, but we need to be in the business of what's new and what's next, storytelling beyond the linear experience. The series has been very successful, the game less so, and the learning curve around immersive storytelling was incredibly powerful for us. So, the Defiance experience was incredibly fun and incredibly frustrating.”
Howe went on to describe just what made it so frustrating, adding:
“It took five years! And it took that long because the technology kept changing. It was designed to be a PC game, and then console platforms became online-capable, so we decided to launch it on PlayStation. Then suddenly we could do it on Xbox. Each time we added, it added another year to it and a level of expense to it. And the gaming space has also changed. It's now about free-to-play, so people don't want to pay for console games.”
