Asking because there’s a TV show coming out soon that I’m excited for, but I’m having flashbacks of all the times I’ve had to wait up to two years for something to come out, often due to delays.

    Silksong 🥲 waiting since 2019, release window in 2023 was cancelled in the last month of the window, no communication since except “we’re still working on it”. Subreddit has gone crazy unlike anything I’ve ever seen, someone from there possibly offed themselves a couple weeks ago due to their shitposting.

    I can’t wait to read history books about it

    I’ve been waiting for Mass Effect 4 ever since the ending that shows Shepard as surviving the events of 3. Closer and closer. Granted, the recent Dragon Age isn’t giving me a lot of hope.

    They were marketing The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild (though not by name, because it didn’t have a name yet) *before the WiiU was released. And they strung everybody along until after the Switch was released.

    Fuckers! I was an early adopter of the WiiU because “well, I’ll for sure want one when the WiiU exclusive Zelda title comes out.”

    The Winds of Winter? At this point though I’m not sure I’m actually waiting anymore.

      you know what, this is, probably mine also.

      I read all the books that were out before the show was even announced, and didn’t realize that the story wasn’t finished.

      then the show started and I was like oh well, at least they have to finish the novels before the TV show will be fully produced.

      joke was on me.

      I was just waiting for next Half-Life. And Alyx delivered big time. So guess that reset the timer :D

      It’s not much, but an intro for Project Borealis has actually been released! There’s only ~10 minutes of gameplay/content and it doesn’t run great, but the artistic direction looks promising.

    I mean there are several things I still look forward to, but the grammar implies things that have already happened. I guess Dwarf Fortress with an actual GUI, so for around about a decade.

      This is a Lemmy comment. All craftsdwarfship is of the highest quality. It menaces with diorite spikes. On it is an inscription of a human sitting at a computer foaming at the mouth absolutely hyped. This inscription relates to the official release of Dwarf Fortress premium during the Third Age of Strife on the sixth of december in the year 2022. Overall, its prose is masterful and consise.
