It’s a team effort, but at the end of the day, as the main writer, it was up to me to name it, and it was up to me to do it – and it is precisely to be the voice of the players who needed a Rivet in their life that I was brought to participate in this project. This is why being left out of the conversation is so painful. This is also how you get the best level design! I offer these guidelines, we brainstorm ideas that fit, I make a shortlist, we vote on names – TOGETHER.
I just want to point out, as I did in my other thread, that none of this works without the team. The anger passed, Sam Maggs sent a message to IGN to explain that David Kim, the programmer credited with coining the name, had actually suggested the name Rivet from a long list of possibilities. “Someone”? I guess I just don’t even deserve a name or the memory of having been part of senior leadership on this project for years huh /I2l0XxcV8e It was she who, in the end, selected the right one. It all led to the idea of calling it Hammer, Socket or Gadget. Taking the pen on her network, she revealed “how I did my work on this character”, and in particular how she came up with this name.įollowing a process of reflection, it was necessary to find a name that could be linked to a tool or mechanism, with two syllables to evoke a similarity to Ratchet, and ideally ending with a harsh sound. In response to this interview, Sam Maggs, who wrote the PS5 game for over a year at Insomniac Games but has since left the studio, has it a little bad. In an interview with from IGN during GDC 2022, lead designer Mark Stuart returned to the Rivet’s new character creation process and in particular the names rejected by the studio (including Rachette). Sam Maggslead writer of the latest Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart, complained on Twitter that his work on the game’s script was purely ‘deleted’. Angry after being “forgotten” by the lead developer of Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart, Sam Maggs gave his truth about the new character’s name, as well as his sexuality.
