There was a topic about this interview, but I thought this part was thread worthy considering all the talk about female leads in games recently

Swery At first we were considering a female FBI agent as the main role, but after receiving some input from overseas we changed it to the male character thats in the game now. We listened to a lot of advice from overseas and since I play a lot of non-Japanese games I wasnt so opposed to much of the comments. However, what I am picky about is the story and the gameplay so when we heard that we should add some gun shooting aspects to the game (probably marketing advice), I wasnt so sure. With hindsight, I guess the game was seen as a kind of twist on the survival horror theme so perhaps they  werent completely wrong to suggest it.
