I love how constantly Sony teases games that are, either; never released, or; released on a different platform than the one they were announced for.
They should know better by now other than announce a game too early.
Good luck for the team behind the project. Hope it gets saved somehow as it looked indeed interesting.
This is what I want to know.How rough a shape did RiME have to be in to have Sony give up on it?
Wdf there were rumors of it being a moba or tower defence game?
What? That's too stupid to be true, right?
It looked gorgeous. Really don't k ow what's so hard to understand.Never understood the hype for this game when their first game was decent at best.
Now Rime is taking forever and getting dropped by the publisher isn't a good sign.
Probably far too many missed dates with no end in sight resulting in "yeah we're not paying you anymore".
Wonder if they had to pay to get the rights back or if Sony were 'nice'.
My hype for this has been reduced to very low however now its sounding like a totally boring clusterfuck with no focus.
Seems like a really troubled development with poor results. The game was probably still very far from release.
That's bad because the concept seemed to be cool in the early trailers.
Hopefully they can find an other publisher interested but it won't be easy.
Yeah i understand Sony dropping them. This game is not even close to release...
Daaaamn, I wanted this one so bad. It's actually the reason I first reached out to Sony Santa Monica. It looked amazing already, strange that it seems to be having dev problems.

I remember people saying this was the case when theh pitched it to MS.Wdf there were rumors of it being a moba or tower defence game?

This rumors never existed, this thread is the first time I hear it....

This morning talking with a colleague (discussing things about the Spanish industry and others) told me certain things RIME
and the game goes horribly wrong
every 2 weeks there are people in the office sony to give cane
basically you do not know what to do
have stage 1 full, but test groups say it is boring
and since there are only puzzles
in the game you can not attack
sun go from one place to another by puzzles
xD
is a fail
because Sony gave them an ultimatum
You've invested a lot of money and the game is a meh
They filled memory PS4
and were several days until 3 am deleting shit and cutting textures
I the person who told me I pretty credibility (the other person and for that ... I do not know XDD)
Really surprising news given how much great support Sony have been giving smaller devs this gen. There has to be a really interesting story behind all this. I really hope the game releases eventually and still looks like the brilliant Windwaker/SotC/TLG/Witness hybrid that it was. :-/
hope someone picks it up for multiplat
I get all the "it's dead" comments but people were very interested on reveal. I doubt they're not getting offers by publishers
unless they just wanna straight up go indie publishing
Obviously. This is their pr. If Sony announced it they would say "we(Sony) have parted ways with TW". Welcome to PR.why is everyone saying SONY dropped them?
they said it themselves, "Tequila Works has chosen..."
this was TW's decision. not Sony's.

It could be business speak for "Sony wasn't happy and gave us the option to get out of the deal we signed." That's not something you say publicly.
But you're right that we shouldn't be overconfident in our interpretations of what was said. Like Rime itself, it is a mystery.
Are you all speculating because of the rights transfer news? Or is there more to this?

Hopefully I'll update soon with more info regarding Rime's development problems.

This likely means two things. 1.) Multiplatform! Woohoo! This looks like a wonderfull game that everyone should have the chance to play regardless of box choice. And 2.) were probably looking at another year or two of development without sony's help : (. Maybe they will go to crowdfunding to finish it off?
