Journey Creator “Suspicious” of Journalists


Jenova Chen might find things a little uncomfortable. Having developed flOw and Flower, he must be find it hard to deal with all the new found attention on him and his studio, thatvideogamecompany, after the success of Journey for the Playstation 3.

So much so, that he’s actually become quite distrustful of journalists.

In response to a tweet regarding the nature of “frankenquotes”, Chen responded:

Totally feel you. My attitude towards journalist (sic) has shifted from friendly to suspicious.

How, why, who, what, where, when and how? Well, it’s not the first time any one’s been misquoted and it most certainly won’t be the last. But what happened to Chen that’s made him suspicious of journalists is hereto unknown.

Maybe general paranoia? Regardless, Journey is still tons of fun. The more attention paid to Chen and his company’s winning efforts, the better and more power to them. But that’s the price of fame.
