Firewatch has me excited, as it seems to offer an interesting story and some quite striking visuals. Anyone else excited? Not many games outright stun me like this game, I imagine I will stream a good bit of it at release.

Confirmation from their blog post:
QuoteCircle February 9 on your calendar, gather your friends, and put your camping trips on hold: Firewatch is coming to Windows, Mac, Linux, and PlayStation 4. At the same time!


They are still working on all aspects of the game, and we will hear more about it nearer the release.

About the game (Official description)
In Firewatch you play as a man named Henry who has retreated from his messy life to work as a fire lookout in the Wyoming wilderness. Perched high atop a mountain, it’s your job to look for smoke and keep the wilderness safe. An especially hot, dry summer has everyone on edge. Your supervisor, a woman named Delilah, is available to you at all times over a small, handheld radio — and is your only contact with the world you've left behind.

But when something strange draws you out of your lookout tower and into the world, you’ll explore a wild and unknown environment, facing questions and making interpersonal choices that can build or destroy the only meaningful relationship you have. Article taken from GamingOnLinux.com.

Reminds me of the movie "Oblivion" starring Tom Cruise.

Quoting: GuestI’ve been following their blog for a while, and the game sure looks good, but I still have no idea what the gameplay will be like. Walking simulator? First person puzzler? Action? Adventure?

I would say adventure game. It sure looks really good, good graphics, well written dialogs, the gameplay seems interesting with lots of interaction possible and the ability to climb whatever seems climbable (for me who just finished Dear Esther that looks like an incredible feat). I don't know exactly what the mood of the game will be as it seems they just show the beginning, I just hope that it doesn't turn out as an horror game with masked maniacs running after you to kill you with a machete to feed you to their pet grizzly bear...

This is relevant to my interests.

The game looks so beautiful. Great atmosphere.
I hope they'll release the game DRM free as well, for example on GOG.com.
