mkreku Posted January 18, 2010 Share Posted January 18, 2010 Yes. I want this game to come out now. I feel I have waited long enough. So my honest and sincere reaction to this unspecified delay is.. WHAT IS TAKING SO GODDAMN LONG?! That is all. Swedes, go to: Spel2, for the latest game reviews in swedish! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baeus Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 I don't think the blog is publicised anywhere but here, is it? Given that there's no new news most people wouldn't have a reason to hit AP's IGN page, it's only the forum dwellers here who realise the blogs exist. Maybe when there's a new trailer, release date or a 'feature page' preview, people will remember that AP is still around and start paying attention again.

Lannister Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 what really frustrates me is, and i say that in a sad kind of way, the absolute lack of information on part of the publisher but obsidian as well... If this game is to come out some time in the future there absolutely has to start "some form of information policy" be that more interviews, advertisement, whatsoever. But this silence is really, really frustrating and and is probably not helping the fans to stay loyal.... and i suppose if this lack of communication continues, the fans will move on..... sad for obsidian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taiko Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 (edited) If the game is being released then you will know a month beforehand by the flood of promos for the game. I have a suspicion that this game is now vapourware unfortunately. Anyone remember Dungeon Hero? Both games were due out around the same time and DH is now vaopurware. I hope I'm wrong and everything works out, the game looks great and I'll be getting it for sure. Still, ME 2 next week, so the game will once again drop off my radar. I remember telling all my friends about it last year in April... Edited January 19, 2010 by Taiko EA/Bioware is there a difference? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RPG-focused websites like Gamebanshee and the Watch usually tells about it. I personnaly bring the news to the french boards I dwell on (even if the news is often already brought by other people) too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Killian Kalthorne Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 I am expecting the word of cancellation soon. If this game is released I will be surprised.

Matthew Rorie Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 I agree with Taiko and Killian. This game is probably vaporware. We're actually talking with a new PR agency that Sega has hired to work on AP matters pretty soon, and I'm due to record some more voiceover for a walkthrough video in the next couple of weeks, as well. Sorry for the lack of info lately, but hopefully things will start popping up relatively soon. While the game was delayed, I can assure everyone that it's very much coming out.

GreasyDogMeat Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 Well, at least there are a ton of awesome (hopefully) games coming out between now and Alpha Protocol to tide me over. ME2, AvP, Red Dead Redemption... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pidesco Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 I wonder what Obsidian thinks of Bioware's media blitzkrieg for ME2.

Bos_hybrid Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 I wonder what Obsidian thinks of Bioware's media blitzkrieg for ME2. The same almost every other rpg dev feels.

Any dev in their right mind would love to have that sort promotion for their game. Perhaps is time for TV producers to take note and draw some ideas for gaming shows that focus on these AAA titles and rising games. I mean the gaming industry is a multimillion dollar industry i'm sure that some mainstream promotion wouldn't hurt them, plus is a great way to finally bring gaming culture out of it's community and open it to the world. I'd say the answer to that question is kind of like the answer to "who's the sucker in this poker game?"* *If you can't tell, it's you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice to here but until I have the game in my grubby digits I shall keep my pessimism. Sega canceled the Aliens RPG, and back when Obsidian was Black Isle there was a slew of canceled games that would have been great. I think my pessimism is well earned.
