After a little bit of a break in August, we have just uploaded the 169th episode of the Alien vs. Predator Galaxy Podcast. In our latest episode, Corporal Hicks and RidgeTop are joined by Thibaut Claudel, one of the writers and narrative designers who worked on Aliens: Dark Descent, to discuss Tindalos Interactive's recent (and brilliant) Aliens game!
We discuss the panel in Aliens: Nightmare Asylum that inspired the Darwin Era, famous school alumni, addressing internal criticism, how the game changed, tie-ins that never happened and plenty more!
Be sure to head on over to Twitter / X where you can find Thibaut under the handle @Republ33k! / republ33k

StillCollating... here from the forums. WE WANT DLC! Loved the interview! And thanks for asking the writer back for more of the fan questions. I'm really interested in seeing his thoughts on Cassandra and Marlow and the Xeno synthesis. The game director, animators, and especially the writer and cinematographers made some of the best story cutscenes in the Alien games to date. Understand that action sequences are easier to do, look better and are already spectacular in the game, I get the temptation to do more of that instead of character stuff. So I appreciate the effort and sacrifices to do such great scenes. Hayes is one of my favorite characters from the expanded universe as of now. The writer made all of the best decisions in creating Hayes and Harper the way that they were.

Great interview guys. There's not really a lot of info out there about the development of the game so this was insightful to listen to.

Very good interview. It was visible while playing the game, that its story was made with care and enthusiasm, and Thibaut only confirmed it here.

Thanks for the cool interview, loved Aliens Dark Descent and the narrative was also a breath of fresh air (I hated Prometheus&Covenant so I was happy that ADD went more its own way) so was great that you got the writer for this. Really hope Tindalos and Thibaut make more Aliens games (I'd take AvP too!) and maybe more in ADD directly as well.

I knew from the moment of the opening cinematics that this game was going to be a detailed labour of love with some great story telling and characters. Good discussion guys.

I thought the inclusion of the Montero was great for fixing the internal logic of the story world after The Chariot of the Gods scenario played it a bit fast and loose with its premise "so the game can happen". The wear and tear from extended hypersleep is supposed to be extreme and the Companies also don't seem that keen on destroying their ships just for the hell of it (unless they've a hell of a insurance coverage over tritium-related explosions). With A:DD story in mind, I've since decided in my headcanon and gaming table that the CotG happens decades earlier than initially through (maybe 2160s) and the Montero always survives (though it loses its crew).

Its funny you did a video recently on labyrinth. I kind of thought Paul Church would have been a great leader for the aliens cult in this

20th Foxney needs to stop being overprotective and restrictive with the Aliens franchise. A:DD Starts great, but after you complete it, that's all there is. I hope they get allowed to add actual DLC that expands the lore and brings in interesting changes. I don't want A:DD to get stale like AFE did.
