It will promote that studios should ”embrace alternative music models” to address ”linearity” issues in games, and to ‘push away from film’.

”Developers should more enthusiastically embrace alternative music models to resolve ongoing issues with linearity and to create a musical aesthetic that pushes away from the shadow of film,” it continued. This will mark ”the first public insight into Thief and its generative music engine.” Back in ‘09 Eidos Montreal said it was all going great.
