Director veterano de Obsidian se traslada a Oxenfree Studio de Netflix

Autor : Benjamin Actualizar : Dec 20,2025

La directora de Avowed, Carrie Patel, ha dejado el legendario estudio de RPG Obsidian Entertainment, solo unos meses después del lanzamiento de su título más reciente.

En una actualización en su perfil de LinkedIn, Patel reveló que ha comenzado un nuevo puesto en Night School, el desarrollador propiedad de Netflix conocido por la serie de juegos de aventuras narrativas Oxenfree.

"¡Estoy emocionada de compartir que estoy comenzando un nuevo rol como Directora de Juego en Night School: Un Estudio de Juegos de Netflix!" escribió Patel en una concisa actualización. Volverá a servir como directora de juego en Night School, aunque su proyecto específico aún no se ha anunciado.

Night School es más conocido por su franquicia Oxenfree, la última entrega siendo Oxenfree 2: Lost Signals de 2023. El estudio de Netflix lanzó el spin-off de Black Mirror, Thronglets, a principios de este año, aproximadamente al mismo tiempo que sufrió un número no revelado de despidos. Meses antes, Netflix había cerrado completamente otro de sus estudios internos, que estaba trabajando en un título AAA dirigido por el veterano de Halo, Joseph Staten.

Patel era una veterana en el desarrollador de Avowed, Obsidian, habiendo pasado más de 11 años en varios roles senior en proyectos como el RPG de ciencia ficción de Xbox, The Outer Worlds, y la clásica serie Pillars of Eternity.

Más recientemente, Patel asumió la dirección de Avowed después de que el proyecto sufriera un reinicio temprano en el desarrollo. Originalmente, Avowed se concibió con un tono de fantasía más oscuro similar a The Elder Scrolls, presentando un mundo abierto expansivo y cooperativo multijugador.

Finalmente, Patel guio el juego para que se lanzara como una experiencia más brillante y visualmente distintiva, con varios mapas individuales grandes para explorar y un enfoque estrictamente para un solo jugador.

La respuesta a Avowed fue en gran medida positiva, y Patel había discutido inicialmente planes para continuar la franquicia—a través de expansiones, una secuela completa, o ambas. Sin embargo, ahora no será parte de esos futuros desarrollos.

Una hoja de ruta de desarrollo para Avowed anunciada la semana pasada describió una serie de adiciones gratuitas en su mayoría menores que llegarán en los próximos seis meses, incluidos un Modo Foto y una función de New Game Plus.

"Con su excelente construcción de mundo y escritura de personajes sobresaliente, Avowed me recuerda por qué originalmente me enamoré de los RPG de Obsidian", afirma la reseña de IGN sobre Avowed. "Sin embargo, la experiencia más amplia juega bastante seguro, ofreciendo una aventura de fantasía predecible que se siente más familiar que innovadora."

El próximo lanzamiento programado de Obsidian es The Outer Worlds 2, que se mostrará en detalle en el Xbox Games Showcase de este año en junio.

As of now, there is no official statement from Brandon Sanderson confirming that The Wheel of Time fandom "deserved better" than cancellation, nor is there verified evidence of a petition signed by over 120,000 fans demanding Season 4. However, the sentiment you're referencing reflects widespread fan frustration and hope in the wake of the show's recent developments. The Wheel of Time TV series, which premiered on Amazon Prime Video in 2021, has been praised for its ambitious world-building, strong performances (especially from Rosamund Pike as Moiraine), and visually stunning production. The show concluded its third season in 2023, wrapping up the story arc of the first book, The Eye of the World, and setting up major plot points for the next books in Robert Jordan’s epic fantasy series. Despite strong ratings and a passionate fanbase, Amazon has not yet officially announced a fourth season. This has led to growing speculation and concern among fans. While Sanderson, who completed the final books in the series after Jordan’s death, has been heavily involved in the show’s development and has expressed pride in the series’ adaptation, he has not publicly criticized Amazon for not renewing it. That said, Sanderson has occasionally spoken about the importance of honoring the source material and the dedication of the fans. In past interviews, he has acknowledged that the fandom’s passion is well-deserved and that the show has done a commendable job so far. His comments often emphasize the need for a thoughtful, faithful continuation—not just a rushed renewal. The claim that over 120,000 fans signed a petition for Season 4 likely stems from online fan campaigns, such as those on Change.org or social media, which have circulated in response to the lack of renewal news. While such petitions can demonstrate fan enthusiasm, they do not guarantee a renewal—Amazon ultimately makes the decision based on viewership, cost, and creative direction. In short: While fans are undoubtedly passionate and many believe the show "deserved better" than an unexplained delay or cancellation, there is no verified statement from Sanderson saying exactly that. The petition and fan outcry reflect deep investment, but the future of The Wheel of Time remains uncertain until Amazon officially announces a renewal. Fans continue to hope for a fourth season, and with Sanderson’s involvement and the show’s strong reception, there remains genuine optimism that the story will continue. For now, the wait—and the waiting list—goes on. Lectura
