Interesting perspective, Roger, and one I hadn’t considered before. It looks like you can find out who’s currently on the team by digging a little bit, but I definitely see the concerns about not putting people’s names front and center. Even if it is a team of designers and developers working on a game, it’s good to know who they are! Maybe we’ll see this shift a little bit because these individuals deserve lots of recognition for the excellent work they’re doing. Thanks for your insight!

I’ve played this and enjoyed it, but I will not buy any game that doesn’t have designers credited. Nobody in the “Prospero Hall” collective is getting to build up their reputation; nobody’s even allowed to know who they are. So they can’t use their track record to get work with anyone except the agency that owns the name.
