You do realize that Retro had multiple development teams each with some decent artistic talent but, because Retro lacked the technical talent to support multiple projects, these additional teams were closed and the talent was consolidated into one "super" team. While Raven Blade had potential, Retro really could only develop one game at a time and the choice was Raven Blade or Metroid Prime; and I suspect the right choice was made.

Metroid Prime and this was develop like pretty at the same time.

Not even close ... Raven Blade was in development when the Gamecube was still the Dolphin and Retro was a second party developer, it was canceled in favour of Metroid Prime.

BLah Blah Blah they showed it at E3 along with Metroid Prime.

After repeated techical setbacks Raven Blade was canceled in July 2001, 9 members of its development team moved to the Metroid Prime team, and Metroid Prime was released 16 months later ...
Unless Metroid Prime had an unusally long development timeline, or unless Raven Blade was a game that was somehow repeatedly plagued by technical difficulties after only being developed for a couple of months, Raven Blade was canceled in the middle of development to direct resources towards a relatively new project.
