It is maybe the last PL interview with Jeff Gardiner you'll ever need. Or maybe it isn't. Platform Nation posted it.<blockquote>Can you give us any hint as to what the story of Point Lookout is?

Once the player arrives in Point Lookout they’re directed to a mansion that appears to be on fire. Once inside, the player gets entangled into helping a Ghoul named Desmond defend the mansion, and from there is asked to infiltrate a local cult known as the “Tribals,” to find out how they’re modifying the local Punga fruit and to delve into what else they’re hatching. The player will ultimately have to choose sides, a choice that isn’t black and white .

How long after announcing the first 3 DLC did the team decide that you wanted to continue making more?

How many DLC we were going to create was always ‘up in the air.’ That being said, we had the idea for Zeta early but decided not to create it initially. When we did decide to create two more, it was at the top of the list.</blockquote>Thanks to Ausir.
 
a choice that isn’t black and white.

lol, I remember someone (and not just him) on the NMA forums criticizing him exactly for making choices black and white. Do Bethesda read what we write?

I hope there will be so much news focused on Mothership Zeta. But I hope then I won't be like "first they ruined Fallout 3, then they ruined what could potentially Mothership Zeta would become", because its main idea sounds really like a DLC with a great gameplay.

If I'd have to guess, I'd say they could care less (wow that rhymed).

Really? It sounds more like it'll be another O:A, except with aliens to shoot instead of the Chinese. PEW PEW!
 
choosing sides is black and white, what happens after that is not.

too bad beth hasn't done it that way. from what i've read, once you choose your path, you pretty much stay on it.
