Forums - Nintendo - Denis Dyack on Nintendo NX, Shadow of the Eternals

fleischr on 05 July 2016

SuperMetalDave just did an hour-long interview with Denis Dyack.

Some retrospective on Eternal Darkness. Loads and loads of upbeat discussion on NX. Some mention of Shadow of Eternals going back into development. But no confirmed re-reveal, release date, or platform mentioned for that game.

This reeks of Shadows of the Eternals being Nintendo NX-exclusive if you ask me.



I predict NX launches in 2017 - not 2016

Probably as fake as the declarations from the guy from CDPR.



My bet with The_Liquid_Laser: I think the Switch won't surpass the PS2 as the best selling system of all time. If it does, I'll play a game of a list that The_Liquid_Laser will provide, I will have to play it for 50 hours or complete it, whatever comes first.

Even if true, would that be a coup? Going by Dyack's track history and the game's hellish development, what can we realistically expect from Shadow of the Eternals?

A promising indie game at the most. And perhaps an Eternal Darkness remake at best.

I think it's bad business deals and management - not a lack of creativity - that's really held Dyack and his team back. They only settled lawsuits with Unreal Engine from 2007-2008 only within the past year.

NX confirmed to have, minimum, GameCube level graphics.

I saw gameplay from Shadow of the Eternals when it was supposed to come to Wii U and it looked underwhelming so I don't really know how much beneficial it would be for NX to have such a game since unless they partnered again with Nintendo and they started over the game in a new engine it's gona look extremely bad...

I heard he was back and that he was still insisting this would someday be a thing...
But I also heard his recent grasp on reality is tenuous...



Have a nice day...

more likely dyack trying to get some buzz around a project. Highly doubt we ever see shados of... And if we did... i feel like it'll be a wreck. :( i'm kind of just accepting eternal darkness is dead.
