Already skipping the Switch 2. Every time there was announcement I was like:

Five years… in the OG days we’d be prepping for the next generation about now.

Then things got weird around the 2008 financial crash. :(

I thought “surely they’re kidding about the dating thing…” Oh no, no you are not. In fact, the CEO brought it up TWO YEARS AGO…

jordanlund, do games w Former BioWare exec producer says EA was pitched multiple times to remaster the first three Dragon Age games
@jordanlund@lemmy.world avatar

I guess, unless you played literally any other RPG up until that time. Every single plot twist had been telegraphed and done before by better games.

The story was also hackneyed and utterly predictable. :(

Unlike Mass Effect, Dragon Age was never a good game. 1 looked like an OG Xbox game instead of 360 and 2 was just awful.

The SkyHook action was pretty amazing, that’s the #1 thing I remember other than the design work.

Infinite was a pretty high bar, they may have intimidated themselves.

I mean, Jesus, even Zero Punctuation liked it and he hates everything!

jordanlund, do games w Xbox Drops Work on ‘Contraband’ Video Game After Four Years
@jordanlund@lemmy.world avatar

No, I have just been working in software development for 13 years.

If I spent six years on a project and could not demonstrate core functionality after all that time, I’d be fired too.

I’m not defending anyone, I’m attacking shitty game development.

When the first teaser came out, people went “Well, that’s pretty, but what’s the game?”

youtu.be/jWpcUH-tKEU

Then, reportedly, the whole thing was rebooted in 2021 and we still weren’t able to see what the game mechanic was.

I get it, it LOOKED great, but as a potential player I need to know what the actual fuck I’m doing. What’s the goal? What am I supposed to do? What are the tools I have to do that?

Everwild Devs: 🤷‍♂️

If the suits were screwing around and changing things, we STILL should have seen what the actual game was before and after the changes. We never did. Never will.

That’s not a corporate problem, it’s a development problem.

Compare that to a teaser for a game that actually released:

It shouldn’t take 6 years to demo a basic gameplay loop. If you don’t have a demonstrable gameplay loop after 6 years, yes, that’s a management problem, but it’s also a dev problem.

All we got to saw of Everwild was pretty, but it was never clear what the game actually was and the developer wasn’t clear either.

And apparently Everwild was officially dropped last month too.

Can’t say I’m surprised… after 6 years there was no gameplay footage and the impression was “Well, it’s pretty but what is the actual game?”
