So you in your infinite wisdom believe that production started on this project three months ago?
prey released in 2017, unless they were sitting on their hands for years this was probably approved way before Microsoft came on board. I guess this makes more sense as a result of the zenimax era, it looked like they were cutting budgets across the board and pushing for multiplayer in everything seems like something they would have done, deathloop still looks like a budget game and I'm pretty sure its because arkane was close to being downsized.
All we got was some conceptual pre-rendered trailer so why not?
Nobody needs you to do PR here.
After prey they did Mooncrash and then co-developed Wolfenstein Youngblood before starting on Deathloop.
Considering all, we have is some CG trailer and sparse details it wouldn't surprise me if they started working on this recently.
It has a scheduled release window of summer 2022, also arkane lyon is the team working on deathloop and this is Austin right? They might have helped out but this isn't the same team at all.All we got was some conceptual pre-rendered trailer so why not?

This is why this kind of stupidity goes on my ignore list.
No they didn't put all that together in three months, production started in 2018.

mooncrash was 2018, I think the Wolfenstein Collab with machine was the French team who is also handling deathloop (that might just be whoever wrote the Wikipedia article assumed arkane = Lyon studio).After prey they did Mooncrash and then co-developed Wolfenstein Youngblood before starting on Deathloop.
Those games you call mediocre copies of Thief is what I call masterpieces and the reason I loved Arkane. Redfall and Deathloop seem from another company.Good news: For once, Arkane is not looting the decaying corpse of Looking Glass in order to make mediocre copies of their games.
Bad news: Now everyone, including them, is just ripping off Left 4 Dead.
The fact that its a year makes me think (maybe naively) that this is some weird marketing decision. I also want to see the gameplay cause Phil mentioned it, you can play this solo, it might be like the GotG or Dragon Age system of controlling others in the team.
If it's Austin rather than Lyon then that would make more sense.
I'm just looking for more information that would explain how a developer known for their deep and immersive single player games goes from games like Dishonoured and Prey to... Whatever the hell this is.
It doesn't seem that far away from Deathloop, either from a gameplay or artistic perspective.If it's Austin rather than Lyon then that would make more sense.

i know that generic is the 2010+ gamers word for everything ...but since I'm a certain age someone would explain to me what you really mean by saying "generic"?
generic isn't a gamer word it's just a standard bit of english vocabulary, i keep seeing people saying they don't understand what it means when its obviously that something looks too much like a bunch of other popular things.i know that generic is the 2010+ gamers word for everything ...but since I'm a certain age someone would explain to me what you really mean by saying "generic"?
but it was a CG trailer. what people could have understood from that trailer if not more or less the setting of what the game will be. And honestly, there aren't a ton of games with vampires as we have been inundated with zombie fashion for years (from TV to video games). Following this idea, the new fromsoft game is also generic.I think most people mean unoriginal.
What is this game though? Likely co op.
Like Borderlands, Destiny, or Halo Infinite. Completely optional co op.
In what world are those games similar besides being an FPS?
Open world/sandbox games that are perfectly fine playing single player but provide optional co-op. People seem to be under the impression like this is some team game like Left 4 Dead. This thing will be no different than Borderlands.
Update your vocabulary instead of blaming gamers.i know that generic is the 2010+ gamers word for everything ...but since I'm a certain age someone would explain to me what you really mean by saying "generic"?
You could try to make that argument. It wouldn’t work, but you can trybut it was a CG trailer. what people could have understood from that trailer if not more or less the setting of what the game will be.

if this is true and i hope it is, they completely fucked up the marketing because everything about that trailer felt like another l4d style shooter. Instead of confusing and disappointing everyone just wait until there's something to show that fans of the studio would actually be excited for.Open world/sandbox games that are perfectly fine playing single player during its campaign but provide optional co-op.

it appears to be deathloop meets left 4 deadSo fun trailer, but what kind of game is it?
I already posted this in the conference thread, but seeing Arkane go from making Prey to making Deathloop and this game is just a travesty.

You think this game started as soon as MS acquired them? I don't know you but I know you smarter than that.So MS decided to ruin Arkane, one of the top 3 best single player game devs at the time of acquisition.
Not surprising I guess, but utterly soul-crushing.
Right before the trailer played Phil referred to it as "an immersive sim set in an open world that can be played alone or with friends"The only thing I know about the game is the trailer. So if there's more info about it I missed it.

As Spacefish says, I agree. The video makes it look like a L4D game with canned levels and urban corridors. Not an open world game.
Common sense.
I said in the main thread that its odd they revealed a multiplayer vampire co-op shooter cause...well didn't the vampire masquerade team just announce something extremely similar 2 or 3 days ago?
Vampire Masquerade: Blood Hunt
One of the characters they highlight is even a chick with curly hair. This one looks like it has a bit of a difference in it since it says you can play as the vampires I guess?
How was this woke?More woke fucking trash. Piss off with this shit.
Literally what in this game seemed woke to you? The inclusion of a black woman as a character? LmfaoMore woke fucking trash. Piss off with this shit.
At most it would show a distinct lack of nuance in terms to describe a countless variety of cases in the English language, but as I said it's just a gamers thing.Update your vocabulary instead of blaming gamers.
I did it .. this "generic" stuff means nothing ... especially if aimed at a CG trailer. And again if you go down to that level even the most acclaimed game for their art style would look "generic". Elden Ring have the most generic dark fantasy art style of this world. People might say, I like or dislike instead of making excuse. Btw this (gaf) is probably the only place where I'm seeing 5hat game criticized in this way.You could try to make that argument. It wouldn’t work, but you can try
