What vaporware are you still holding out hope for?
F2P or not Deep Down looked like it had great potential, it was one of the few games early in the PS4 launch to generate hype in me.
Fucken Deep Down. Looks like the dungeon crawler we all want but no one's making. I really hope it's still being reworked - ideally they removed that future AC-tier shit during.
Here's to am E3 re-reveal.

Goddamn.
I really enjoyed that footage damn it. I was a big fan of poke poke gameplay. The time stop looked dope too. I really hope it becomes Dragon's Dogma 2 with a focus on dungeons.

Spear gameplay was excellent. The way precise hits can incapacitate in different ways.
Are there any games outside of Deep Down that seemingly had so much effort and marketing done before having the plug pulled?
>>376762626
There are certainly ones that have been worked on longer, but yeah I'm pretty sure Capcom made an entirely new engine just for the game, that couldn't have been cheap.
>>376762626
That Microsoft Platinum game about the dragon comes to mind.

No way would it just be for a game initially intended to be F2P. It was probably just time for a new engine given the new console generation.

holy fuck I forgot about this

There was a real shit-storm when it happened, how the hell did you miss it?
>>376762626
Not so much marketing, but there was that Sony Santa Monica game that was about 3 years and $50m into development before the plug was pulled due to QA concerns.

holy shit I need to look into this. I can't even imagine what it must feel like to work on something for so long and just have it tossed

You excited me, then never came out.

Games that will never come out general?

lingers

Tell me it ain't true, IT CAN'T BE DEAD
>>376759023
Deep Down WILL become either MH5 or DD2 with a heavy favour leaning towards DD2
>>376765063
I remember kind of being hyped for this. It doesn't seem like there are enough first person dungeon crawlers
>>376759023
Between the time this was announced and today, From Software have released Dark Souls II, Bloodborne and Dark Souls III. The latter being a 1 year old game.
Deep Down is dead as fuck, a damn shame

At this point I think most people are burnt out on Souls, so a game with a similar aesthetic, but different gameplay like Deep Down might benefit from coming out now.
