Someone help me understand. For instance, Everwild has been reportedly rebooted and targeting a 2024 release date. They didn't even know what the game was when they announced it so why bother?
What's the point of these cinematic trailers with no gameplay? Does anybody tell themselves "Oh I wanna play that!" when there's nothing to be played? I understand getting hyped for sequels or spiritual successors because you have a good idea of what you're signing up for, but for these brand new IP's that show off a cinematic trailer 3 years before they even have a release date, I just don't get it.
It can't be for marketing purposes because we tend to forget about these games after a few weeks until they reappear years later. At least when they got something to show, they can keep the hype train going until release day rather than let it die and restarting the engine every time.
Thoughts?
