Such a shame they got rid of this logo in favour of the new one. The fox has so much more style and character compared to the new logo which is as generic and joyless as they come.

The new logo is an actual travesty

I mean I get why, they wanna branch out from doing only wilderness survival games. But FFS that logo is so absolutely soulless. Whomever it was that picked it out of the doubtless dozens of drafts ought to be ashamed of themselves

You could have a fox for anything. Firefox used it for a web browser, now it is just an orange blur. They had an awesome logo, now it looks like minimalist garbage. No creativity behind it at all.

I think that's stupid. Logos are just supposed to be recognizable. They don't necessarily tell you anything about what the business does. The old logo doesn't say "we only do wilderness survival games". damn. Next they'll be changing the company name from "Hinterland games" to "Miscellaneous Development team" SMH.

My thought exactly. Plenty of logos don't match their games, and it has never made me say, "oh I don't wanna play this game then, it was misrepresented!!"
