Probably waiting to see more developments on the adaptive scripting from C&C and the next few titles. I know he mentioned before that their new approach for the title was surprisingly simple but revolutionary, so I’m thinking it has to do with journaling and consistently rereading the title’s objectives to understand what you’re processing, what action to take, and where you’re being led. They might also be waiting for some more feedback on the idea thread so that they can capture everything that everyone wants in a cohesive idea that still honors the direction they want to go in. Since it’s considered such a foundational title, I think they really want to get the adaptive scripting right so that anyone can see benefit from running it, even those that have been running artisans for a while.
I can’t find the exact post where he said it, but I’d bet good money that the adaptive scripting originated from an early version of Genesis: Ascension as a way to make it work for people no matter what level of development they’re on. It’s an expansion on the more detailed product copy, journaling, and finding simple ways to take action to help the union of the conscious and subconscious mind that they’re trying to emphasize with ZPU. Then world events happened and after some early tests, they decided to then adapt that scripting into C&C to make that the first title with it. Now that C&C’s the “guinea pig”, it makes sense to want to iterate on it and make it better for Genesis: Ascension, since that’s the title that theoretically would benefit most from it.
I could be completely off and looking too much into things, but that’s the direction I think they’re going in and why there hasn’t been word on Genesis: Ascension yet. Or they’re waiting to surprise drop us again, which hasn’t happened in a while.
