That would definatly be a change...don't think I have seen a single game in the last 20 years that was ready to launch when it did.
Must be a High Priest.
Hopefully Intrepid saw what happened with Cyberpunk and learned from it. Would hate to see them fall into the same pit of foolishness.
An official content partner with Intrepid, allegedly.
I'd say late 2023 or early 2024.
Honestly, for me being optimistic in terms of games has become hoping they come out as late as possible because
You don't really understand the value of this quote until you see as many hyped up games fail over the years.
And, they appreciated us sharing our honest perspectives rather than simply being shills.
I dunno why you seem to have a problem with what I wrote.
I have more than 10 years professional experience evaluating game dev schedules.
If Steven can get the game out before 2023, great.
But, back in 2017, when Steven was saying release before 2020 - I stated that was unlikely.
Before 2023 is unlikely. And it's quite likely it could be a couple years after that.
Ashes has a very ambitious game design.
Your lack of pr and marketing awareness mostly. Starcitizen is a toxic thing to be compared to for any game. Comparing ashes to it irt its timelines is extremely bad pr. I can't believe I have to explain that to you. Even if you are right, you are conveying it in a way that is pretty bad for intrepid. Full stop.
my bet is spring 2023.
G) Summer 2023
You are paranoid about PR. I will keep that in mind from now on.
It's literally my job to be.
LMFAO
Ashes didn't really start development until 2018.
When Archeage started development, XL had a full team of developers that were experienced at working together.
Intrepid didn't reach this point until at least early 2018. Most of the work done before that point was in either building the team and workflow, or in conceptual design - something Archeage didn't need to do as the game was based off a well developed existing IP.
I mean, you are on the right track in comparing the time to Archeage - you just need to factor in a few other things.
Uhhh, that's a jar of cold water. I couldn't find any information regarding XL staff size and all that. So, based on your corrections we might add a couple of years. 2025?
Ashes is a huge, ambitious game supporting almost every MMORPG playstyle and the devs are making significant changes based on player/tester feedback, so... could easily be 2025. Sure.
Yeah, that is my expectation - give or take.
If absolutely everything goes well, 2024 is possible - but I wouldn't bet on it.
They have a great amount of great promises to honour and a lot of work to do.
I should be in my new modest abode within a year. I would be great it if came out 1q '23.
