Fuck a release....how about an announcement? A teaser? Closed alphas or pre-alphas to get player feedback? Word of even internal demos or anything to demonstrate this is morphing into a real, tangible product? Games these days get announced just to help hire for projects, and this game had nothing. 

How many years would you be willing to fund a project before it, apparently, even remotely begins to take shape into something I can maybe foresee then spending further marketing budget on it, and then selling it? If 7 years to doesn't get me a reveal trailer, I'm sorry, but that's a money hole if you ask me

Then all you guys moan when they announce something early!!! Lmao.

Kind of a big difference between early and 7 years in dev....like how many years do you wanna give them? Like genuinely, if you were running a business, how many years are you funding a game that wasn't ready to be announced after 7? Cus if we take the industry standard of most games, that get announced at least 1-2 years out, and then often get pushed back another 6-12 month, that means even if this game had been announced this summer, it probably would have been in dev another 2 years minimum. So judging by the fact that it wasn't in fact ever revealed officially, it needs what...another 3 years minimum? Probably more. And for a new IP at that if I understand correctly. Not like you're working on a Fallout MMO that's guaranteed attention no matter what. Sometimes you gotta know when to say no.
