Neat.
Yes, and F2P too
Sony dropped the ball on Demon's Souls in the west. They still funded and co-developed the game, along with publishing it in Japan. This situation is more comparable to what happened with Remember Me, which was quietly dropped by Sony before it was formally announced and got picked up by Capcom.
More like L.A. Noire that was also dropped by Sony because how a mess the whole development of that one was but at least they got Rockstar that managed to somehow fix and and salvage that thing.

GameStop listed them as a partner for GameTrust and I strongly doubt they are working on more than Rime
Cmon...
haha here we go again
I hope whoever is funding them now has them on a tight fucking leash. Do they really think anyone is going to care about them playing will they/won't they about whether the game is going to be at Gamescom when it was already shown that their previous reveal was a sham?
You know, I did have a feeling that there was a more analogous example, but I don't think I've thought about LA Noire since it came out.

was it not a moba or something ?
I can't believe these guys after not delivering anything for 3+ years.

Still?
So they started woring on it?
Not gonna trust people who make fake trailers.

Frankly I don't think Rime will launch at all. Seems it's filled with a lot of issues and it might destroy Tequila Works if they used every penny that they got in it.
LOL. IMO Rime is dead.

At this point, it would be better to present it as a whole new game and avoid all the bad press attached to rime. It was non existant anyway.
Goddamn, somebody should alert the witness and every other game with long and troublesome development that they are all train wrecks
99% sure I read that it started out as a Tower Defense or MOBA (Some sort of tactical game). I was surprised going by the reveal footage but after that turned out to be fake, I'd believe anything now.

Yep because the witness and all other games with troubled development had the same circonstances as Rime.
They apparently never shown the real game as of now, it as nothing to do with it having a long and troublesome development more to do with the fact that after 3 years we still haven't saw the game.
Blow had an excellent track record though. Braid was a critically acclaimed game that also sold well.
Their first game, Deadlight, was shit. Bad reviews, short game and it didn't sell well at all. I have no idea why anyone was hyped for this game after knowing who was behind it.
Thanks for that. Sounds like the game is vaporware and development is only continued thanks to government money, which will eventually run out. Since supposedly the original developers are gone and the whole undertaking seems directionless, I am not holding my breath that anything resembling the trailer will ever be released (if anything at all).
Too bad, I was looking forward to it.
Hahaha yep game has to be dead. This is the same shit they said with the past 3 or something updates since last year or so.
Even that can be faked on stage
Ah, that's true, but still better than another great trailer that turns out to be 100% bollocks.Even that can be faked on stage

Yeah, this game is never coming out.
Shame, because I was so hyped for this game at one point. I was hanging out for it at every Sony conference and let down every time by its absence. But at this point it's clear that the game was never anything more than a scam.

And it looked so good too. If only I had known back then that what I was watching was a big ol' pile of nothing.
Maybe the team was downsized to five members after Sony left, then added two more recently when they acquired more funding!

I have almost no hope it will actually get released, let alone live up to the initial trailers, but gods damn would I love to be proven wrong.
This was easily one of the games I was most excited about at the start of this gen, and it's sad that there's very few things on the market that look like it.

Was blown away when I saw that trailer, had everything I look for in a game. Was bitterly disappointed when I found out what was (apparently) going on.
Since I now have zero expectations, at best this game will be a pleasant surprise if/when it eventually comes out.
