What if it turns out the reason we haven't heard anything about this game is because it's being made for the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Infinite launch window?

possible

They threw it out because during development they noticed a big drop in the popularity of Harry Potter and investors got scared.

It was fake.

Publishers cancel games all the time, remember. Without the developers' consent. Really weird how that's legal.

Probably this! Looking at the screenshot it's your typical shit quality screenshot like we see all the time for smash leaks

It was a video, which we've also had for smash leaks but still

The publisher is funding it, why wouldn't it be legal?

It's the publishers' money to do with as they see fit. Usually there's a contract laying out under what conditions they can back out.

It's not like 3rd party developers working for big publishers are much of a thing anymore, they almost exclusively fund their own internal development studios these days.

dude

No!

Yeah but it's the hundreds of devs who operate their workplace and produce games. Really it should be the workers who own the workplace that way they can decide on things democratically. Besides being more fair it would definitely produce better video games.

>being more fair it would definitely produce better video games
That mindset is what led to the subsidiaries being purchased by a publisher that knows better
The ones that don't do this end up becoming publishers themselves because they know how to mix commerce and creativity

Are you saying game devs should seize the means of production?

u wot, Valve employees don't own the workplace. Gabe still runs the show. The "flat" structure is an illusion as has been explained by ex-Valve employees.

>"You're 24 months late on your milestones, millions over budget and the genre we were trying to capitalize on is now oversaturated, so we're terminating development"
>"we don't consent lol"
No publisher is going to sign on to a contract where a developer can effectively hold them hostage.

>minute long video was fake just like my smash pics lol

Fucking kill yourself nintendroob

Why do women like Harry Potter so much?

Hard to say why Harry Potter hit so much harder with young girls than Pirates of the Carribean, but I think that Hermoine's presence in the movies as well as the absence of juvenile humor was effective.

Cause it combines three of the most basic pathetic aspirations of wallflower weaklings:
Doing alright at school
Being good at a sport
Being one of the good guys

Harry Potters popularity has only gone up the past 3 years tho

And Doctor Who.
Because it's normie shit and most girls can't into non-mainstream entertainment. Probably has something to do with their biological drive to fit in with the group as a means of self preservation.

Not after the recent where to find them one bombed

>Probably has something to do with their biological drive to fit in with the group
That is a quality of humans user

Childhood nostalgia if I go by my sister.

I honestly find that hard to believe.

If you believe that as a man that's an indication that you're a beta

>If you recognize that other men do this you aren't a man

You're trying to establish an in-group and out-group in this very post.
