MODERATORS
It is honestly interesting that half this blog post is talking about moving to the new engine when they said the same thing ~2 years ago. Have they really spent all this time restarting development?
Meanwhile, the team continues to use the legacy engine to prototype experiences and improve our development processes. Over the coming months, more and more of our team will move over to working in the new engine
Cya in 2028 I suppose
From the way they talk about it... sometimes I'm not sure that there actually is a game at all.
If it came out tomorrow that it was all an elaborate hoax, I don't think I'd be super surprised.
For real, I think I've gone through the "It sucks that never came out" -> "They're still working on that?!" -> "It sucks that never came out" cycle like three times. The first blog post is in 2018 and it states then that it's been in dev for several years. It's never going to see the light of day, or if it does, it's going to be a conceptually outdated, buggy mess that's barely duct taped together. It's just so incredibly hard to dev for that long across multiple engines without it turning into a disaster.
I'd love to be proven wrong, though...
