Wasn't the first trailer just an asset flip or something?

Whatever this game is, the Developers seem SUPREMELY confident in what they have to show.... as if you read the replies they double and even triple down on saying it will be worth the wait. Personally i'm not going to get worked up over or hype just yet.... but ill check it out at least as there marketing tactic has done its job in raising some eye brows as to what abandoned exactly is.

 

[JTCx]

 

[FunkMiller]

If this is just one big troll, they now have many, many more people who know when their trailer drops

 

[vpance]

Name of the studio and logo is too crappy to believe they're not trolling.

 

[kingpotato]

And the first chapter was called Abandoned

Well then

This studio and game just gets weirder by the second… the footage that was shown wasn’t actually from the in development game?

Now they’re claiming that they have SEVEN external studios helping them? An unknown developer with no games of their own to their name, popping up out of nowhere, somehow suddenly has the resources to hire SEVEN studios to help?

What the actual fuck is going on with this title? Something is very fishy.

 

[NewYork214]

This is amazing. I'm excited to see how this goes. I don't even care about the end result, either is hideo trolling or a small company completely killing it with pr and getting everyone to talk. Lol.

They will get lots of views on their reveal either way

 

[DonJorginho]

Look fellas... We are winning either way, look at it this way, it will go one of three ways:

• It actually is Silent Hill or a Kojima hoax project, hype ensues, Sony have another anticipated exclusive from one of the greatest creative minds.

• It turns out to be a truthful release from Blue Box, but a surprisingly great looking game, this theory is helped by the devs saying today how the initial teaser was not footage from or related to the actual game itself and how they were extremely confident in meeting expectations. That along with working with SEVEN external studios and tripling down on their confident claims makes me eager to see what they release.

• The reveal comes and it is a piece of shit, like god awful quality, meme material ahoy, and we all get a good laugh out of this and the devs get a good dose of karma for using Silent Hill and Kojima to lead on fans and gain traction.

SEXUAL

 

[Snowdonhoffen]

 

[A.Romero]

1) This is not related to Kojima
2) This is not Silent Hill
3) These guys know exactly what they are doing by posting shit like that
4) I have a feeling the game will suck

Just read the stoey behind Moby Dick Studios.

It will be Silent Hill

 

[bitbydeath]

Link?

There's just a whole lot of sketchy stuff going on.

Eg.

Evidence A.
That cancelled game that was previously linked (Rewind) has undergone three different names.
1. The Whisperer Game - Check URL - https://www.indiedb.com/games/the-whisperer-game
2. The Haunting (Same link above)
3. Rewind - https://www.indiedb.com/games/the-whisperer-game/forum/thread/pc-platform-release

Evidence B.
The first news post on - https://www.indiedb.com/games/the-whisperer-game
is dated 2020, yet the comments are dated 2015.

Evidence C.
Their website was filled with broken links - https://www.blueboxgamestudios.com/
It has since been taken down.

Evidence D.
On Steam, the supposed game they created in Evidence A lists both the developer and publisher as CreateQ.
No mention at all of Blue Box having any involvement whatsoever.

Evidence E.
They've done this before, including denying it via twitter.

The list goes on and on.

 

[Ghost of Caelid]

If this is silent hill, which I don't think it is, this is the worst and most annoying kind of teaser ever. I'd rather just a cgi trailer than this troll reveal. But I don't think it is, i cant see silent hill being made on unreal ...and if it is I cant see epic being happy with their engine being used as a facade.

 

[StreetsofBeige]

Wasn't the first trailer just an asset flip or something?

The first clip shown (that slow creeping one walking in trees) is based off a $35 Unreal Engine asset pack.

 

[elliot5]

Some of you buying the snake oil and it's concerning.

 

[Dick Jones]

Even 2 years after release I'll still believe it was Kojima

I'm still so confused why people think a game marketing itself as exclusive implies some deal is being made lol

I love the "more than 7" too... lol.. not 7... but MORE THAN 7!

[kyoji]

[TidusYuna]

Green is to Xbox as Blue is to Playstation.


Green Box = Xbox
Blue Box = Playstation

Blue Box Studio = Placeholder title for Sony Studio purchase reveal.

 

[DonJorginho]

when do we find out more information from them?

On the 20th the PS5 app goes live, gameplay reveal on 22nd

Alright, now let's dig into CREATEQ Interactive. http://www.createq.nl/wp/

WTF?

Must be a ruse.
What else have they created.

createq interactive is nothing to do with gaming, they do digital signage and retail analytics.

If you examine anything hard enough you'll find red flags. If you believe it will be silent hill then wait till the 22nd to see. But if you go looking for connections you'll find them by creating correlations that may not actually exist lol.

How does an unknown studio with no well known names behind it snag a PS5 dev kit?

Exactly.

 

[elliot5]

How does an unknown studio with no well known names behind it snag a PS5 dev kit?

The same way Goodbye Volcano High devs do. They just apply and manage to get one.

 

[DeepEnigma]

It's a game called "Sarkeesian's Thrill". You take control of Anita in her constant search for a company or person to grift. Level Anita up to gain new abilities such as diversity shaming and begging. Meet companions like the Blue Haired Land Whale. Battle enemies like the evil Straight White Male and Deplorable Republican. Coming this holiday to PS5!

With a title like that, I expect to see cuckold pegging mini games.
