Show the damn game. We don't play or interact with these people. This kind of thing should be supplemental and secondary to the game itself. We've seen way more of this stuff than the product they are trying g to sell
Why do they do these? Does anybody really care? It is like they are trying to drum up sympathy or something, but all it does is annoy me.
Show us the damn game. That is what we care about.
My hot take on this game from what's been shown:
It's gonna be more "games are art" type of game than a traditionally looked at video game. And that's fine. As someone who's not really engaged with the series, I hope it does what it set out to do but it looks to me to be the perfect game-pass game cause I don't think this is going to set the retail world on fire.
And again this is why I like game pass for MS 1st party studios. Games like this and Pentiment would never find an audience or have been greenlit if retail sales was the driving factor.

I think this will have more mainstream appeal than the first, simply because they have shown it so prominently at the Game Awards and recently in commercials. I think this will still have the set pieces and slow methodical pace of the first, but will mix in more nuanced fast paced combat as well.
I'd say the same, but I'm taking a guess and say it's prob pretty much identical in terms of gameplay as the first game... which is what I'd expect anyway and that's fine for what it is imo.
I wouldn’t worry too much. I think this is more a case of showing the game too early than dev issues.
So...
"Game might look good, but it's not really a game since the gameplay is pretty much non existant".

I'll reserve judgment for that once we see some gameplay videos
