Gameplay being show before a game is close to its final state will be less and less a thing. Why?
- Developers put together a trailer featuring early gameplay.
- Fans go "OMG THAT AWESOME."
- As work continues, developers have to balance resources, which includes scaling back in one visual area in order to add or expand something else.
- Fans go "OMG DOWNGRADE DOWNGRAED FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUU BOYCOTT BOYCOTT," and that harbinger of ignorance, "LAZY DEV WTF."
Simple cause and effect. If I were a developer, I wouldn't show gameplay until I absolutely had no choice.
