VGC: Avowed and HBII nearest after Starfield, Fable recently went into full production, Perfect Dark and Everwild "not close"

[Deleted member 417]

I still can't believe how the media, shills and forums came out to bat for Hellblade and tell us in no uncertain terms that the 2019 trailer was not cgi. It was running xbox series x.

It was a lie. They lied. Worse than Sony did with killzone 2.

Where is the outrage?

Instead we are told to trust Phil and this year will be "stacked" with games.

If you think Xbox zealots are going to be upset about this news, this is what they’re posting on Twitter to cope.

Indiana Jones the Uncharted killer still MIA as well.

It's been a long time.... announced too early but I guess covid happened too.

If Fable just went into full production, then that is probably years out.

It's just bizarre that these were unveiled nearly three years ago...and have only just gone into full production.

i am thinking of becoming a Buddhist, as i am beginning to think reincarnation might be the only way to play these games.

That meme is pretty ironic given that MS are the ones spending billions on pubs to compensate for being asleep at the wheel for so long.

This can't be true surely? just went into full production?

What the heck have they been doing over there all this time.

I assume that building the team, the engine and preproduction including design, many prototypes and a good vertical slice to verify everything is on track before going full production.

Being a new IP for them, and a new AAA genre for them (btw one which requires way more work than the one they were used to), plus also having to build a new team plus a game engine for it takes time.

avowed and everwild are never coming out. bookmark this.

I don't see why. MS simply announced all these games too early because they didn't have anything else to hype their fanbase, it doesn't mean they all have development issues or are taking more time than usual.

We been hearing about fable since 2018.

are you saying Fable might be a Fable?

 

[Zeroing]

I am not surprised but I do not understand why the fans of xbox and not being critical of xbox division's incompetence, that I cannot understand.

If Sony or Nintendo did the same exact thing of showing trailers for games, with years passing without any release... the media and gamers would be trashing Sony and Nintendo in a daily basis.

Fable rumors popped up shortly after scalebound was cancelled if i remember correctly. It was klobrille of all people who got that ball rolling. 5-6 years later still no fable and the ay things are going there may not be one lol.

Boy, that Phil Spencer sure knows how to run a gaming company, and promoting Matt Booty to his old job was a stroke of genius!
