As much as I agree with and understand your perspective, as I too am an artist, I think that this game is going to be different from the other horrible games (minus KH) Disney's come out with.

Actually, he wouldn't do Epic Mickey at first, b/c of those games. It wasn't until he learned about what he had to change about Mickey (everything) that got him into this. (Spector fan=3)

I actually consider this not like a downgrade of Spector, but an intensive upgrade of Disney itself!

Every since the corporatization of gaming, the quality and the passion of many games were greatly reduced; Warren Spector is a prime example of that. His studios got shut down for not making enough money and now he's just been integrated to the Disney corporate machine and his artistic talents and abilities and his passion have been put aside in favor of creating more "user-friendly" or mainstream games. From an artist's perspective I just do not see why you would want to downgrade your work.

Smart Guy. I'd love to see more.

I hope you'll upload his speech too! Thanks for this, it's always good to hear from Mr Spector. :) Deus Ex is my all time favourite game.
