I had heard at first, they wanted it to be a prequel set in the 70's, but that would be too expensive. I thought it sounded awesome. They were all going to play their own dads.
And they ended up crowd funding the sequel. I haven't seen any clips of it yet. But I've watched some of their promos.
I hope they don't do like HW and just copy bits and scenes form the first one to "play it safe". I want new stuff. They can do somethings the same like repeater, meow, and the other games/pranks they play. :{
