As a seasoned gamer with over two decades under my belt, I can attest to the rollercoaster ride that is the video game industry. The announcements made at events like The Game Awards are always met with a mix of excitement and skepticism – it’s part of the game. However, Jason Schreier’s words serve as a timely reminder that not every announced title will make it to the shelves.
At this year’s Game Awards spectacle hosted by Geoff Keighley, I couldn’t help but remember the words of Jason Schreier when he mentioned that the projects Star Wars: Eclipse by Quantic Dream and Wonder Woman by Warner Bros. Games were essentially empty promises at the time they were unveiled. It’s a valuable reminder to keep in mind, as it’s all too common for games announced with much fanfare to never actually make it to market.
The reputable writer made the remarks on Kinda Funny’s Games Daily (thanks, PSU). At significant risk, we ventured into the Push Square archives long enough to pull our latest on these absentee titles. We last wrote about Eclipse back in August, when the game lost its lead writer (never a good sign). The single-player Wonder Woman, meanwhile, may still contain service elements and will allegedly utilise Shadow of Mordor’s Nemesis System, articles from 2023 and 2021, respectively.
In the realm of video game creation, it’s no surprise that things have changed significantly over time. As projects become more complex, timeframes expand, and costs skyrocket, it’s crucial to remember this evolution. The days when a lone developer could create masterpieces like Square’s legendary games are long gone. Today’s video games are massive, costly endeavors that take considerable time to develop, if they even make it to market at all.
Of all the upcoming TGA announcements, which one do you believe will happen the latest? When should we expect them not to be premature? Feel free to share your predictions in the comments section below.
