I'm 100% sure the game being played on the tv was inserted in post

You can't believe in Todd. Ever,

Jokes aside, it looked great from that snippet.

Will renew my GP sub in September for sure

 

[NickFire]

Credit where it’s due. So question time Obi Wan. Should we trust the stated date?

 

[mansoor1980]

awwwwww hell yes

 

[tmlDan]

As long as its this year idc, just make sure its not broken.

Glitches and bugs will happen because its who they are but anything frustrating or game breaking will be a disaster.

 

[Roberts]

Not a shred of actual gameplay in that trailer, lulz

Well, technically you can see them play the game behind Todd's back.

 

[SF Kosmo]

I had guessed a delay to august, but early September puts that in the ballpark.

I think September is confidence inspiring, because they're neither trying to rush it out to meet the fiscal year, nor for the holiday rush. Says to me they're willing to take the time they need, but they don't need too much.

 

[DeepEnigma]

You called it.

 

[nightmare-slain]

My bad, I had no idea there were official guidelines for when not to show videogame footage in videogame trailers.

well, i mean, look at the title of the video. if you were expecting any significantly gameplay then that's on you for not being able to read properly.

wait for the gameplay trailer. or y'kno, the direct in June.

This is all I want. Just don't rush it out broken.

What has the competition got launching on their consoles, January to September?

What does the competition have to do with Xbox?

 

[HeisenbergFX4]

Yes its getting shoved out the door

 

[NonPhixion]

Bugs? No way guys. The creation engine had all the bugs. This is the creation engine 2. Bug free.

 

[adamsapple]

Lol show gameplay ya goofies.

Watch the video, there's plenty of off-screen game play, more than we've seen before.

 

[GHG]

Where's that avatar thread?

I may finally have to retire Hasan. It's been blessed, goodnight my sweet Prince.

What has the competition got launching on their consoles, January to September?

Obsessed.

 

[nightmare-slain]

DenchDeckard you getting done for console war gaslighting and H Henry Panic isn't???

 

[TintoConCasera]

We've poured ourselves into this game

I'm surprised how much we can pour

It's large

 

[Mephisto40]

More lies from Todd then

I would still put money on this game not releasing in 2023

 

[Kacho]

My boy Todd looking old these days

 

[TVexperto]

Where are the people that kept telling me one month ago that it will shadow drop in march?

 

[The Infectious Paradox]

Fucking showcase not til june? God, there's been like no time to build hype for this. Last gameplay trailer sucked.

 

[nightmare-slain]

Obsessed.

Funny that. seems to be a lot of people in here shitting on this announcement and a lot of them seem to be Sony fans.

Pathetic both sides.

 

[mansoor1980]

My boy Todd looking old these days

SOON

 

[SF Kosmo]

Not a shred of actual gameplay in that trailer, lulz

Not quite true, there's a bunch of gameplay in the b-roll.

 

[nightmare-slain]

Where are the people that kept telling me one month ago that it will shadow drop in march?

lmfao i ain't ever seen anyone say this was releasing in march.

go and find those posts where people said that please.

 

[Tomeru]

I'm moving to vote that in every date announcement, every and all publishers and developers add the following to the announcement:

For Now

for like the last 10-15 years you can safely assume that any release date isn't 100% set in stone.

 

[adamsapple]

Did anyone really think that?

 

[MarkMe2525]

Looking forward to playing this in 2025 on my Series X pro when the bugs are finally ironed out. By then, the ecosystem might have a few more exclusives that I’m interested in too.

So edgy

 

[Gaiff]

Wait, so where's the showcase?

Also Microsoft is going to have what between May and Sept? Just Forza?

Oh Philly.

Another delay out of half 1, still no showcase. Time for Nudella to announce Spencers resignation.

Why the concern trolling? They kicked off the year with Hi-Fi Rush. Redfall is coming out in May. Forza will presumably come later, and then Starfield will finish the year. AoE IV is also coming later on Xbox.

Not an amazing year by any means but decent enough.

Who is shitting on the announcement?

People who are factually stating that this represents a futher delay and that we are still yet to see anything tangible beyond the trailer that we got last year?

People will be happy and excited when there is something to be happy and excited about. Let's see what June brings.

 

[Bilu]

Does this mean that Forza comes first? Perfect.

 

[rapid32.5]

Can’t wait for 10 years of GOTY awards.

 

[Stuart360]

PC GAME has me nervous. Makes me think some sort of epic store exclusive shenanigans will happen.

MS love Steam, and i doubt they need Epic's moneyhat money.

 

[Fredrik]

Oh yes!! A slight delay from their 12 months showcase reel but I don’t care I get to play it this year!

 

[YuLY]

Direct in june = imminent )) these insiders are nothing but attention seekers.

 

[mrmustard]

Nice, earlier than expected. Can't wait to explore.

 

[bentanchorbolt]

Nice. Can’t wait.

 

[analog_future]

Also have to point out that the trailer was presented at 60fps.

Great sign for those worried there might not be a 60fps option.

 

[ungalo]

It was expected. Always knew the 12 next months thing was a lie (a stupid lie coming from Microsoft).

It doesn't bother me because this year the big releases are well spaced. Hyped for the game of course.

 

[HeisenbergFX4]

Does this mean that Forza comes first? Perfect.

I hope we get that yet this year

 

[SF Kosmo]

Yes its getting shoved out the door

September is not a shove out the door date. November/December is a shove out the door date.

 

[Balducci30]

I’m cool with this - damn so the showcase is in June?

 

[LordOfChaos]

I do think Todd is just a big nerd who genuinely just wants to make cool stuff for people to play

I was going to say. I just really like Todd's vibe, he seems like a genuine guy who stayed humble through massive success, and not everyone is going to have a hit every time and that's not something I hold against him. He just has good vibes. He was great on Lex.

 

[Gaiff]

Crazy that the original planned date was November 2021 lol.

 

[Kacho]

Fucking showcase not til june? God, there's been like no time to build hype for this. Last gameplay trailer sucked.

The hype for a new BGS game is built in. It’s the most wishlisted game on Steam.

Regardless their plan is consistent with what they’ve done in the past. That is, do a big blowout at E3 and then launch a few months later. This showcase is the one that Todd goes into full Todd Howard mode.

 

[Lyrical]

The fact that they still won’t show gameplay isn’t a good sign. Still I’m willing to give this a go.

 

[SmokedMeat]

Hmmm…I can start using my GameStop Rewards to buy an additional $70 in Xbox credit by September, for $35.

 

[GHG]

Yes its getting shoved out the door

Well at least they still have the best part of half a year to do their best to make it as good as they can.

 

[adamsapple]

There's plenty of off-screen game play in the B roll. The 'trailer' is just the release date announcement.

Did y'all just close the window after the release date popped up ?
