South of Midnight Creative Director David Sears Says He Raised Budget Concerns Internally

David Sears, creative director of South of Midnight, said he internally expressed concern that the game's high budget was unsustainable and would have traumatic downstream results. He said he wanted to make the game but, if running Xbox, would likely have cut off the money flow sooner. He added that in hindsight the spending was unsustainable, so a shocking outcome was inevitable.
