smallvillefan27 posted:better than teasing us with something we will never get to play, if we never know about somethin at least we wont miss it. Im not speaking for the company either, im speaking for the people who spend their hard earned money for these games to keep game companies in buisness. You dont do that by biting the hands that feed you.

Buisnesses think about their bottom line and what the price of their stock is. Do you think anyone cares about who they hurt in the process when somehting like this happens. ME!!!!!!! im speaking for every person who got their feelings hurt, who got excited about this game and might not ever get to play it, which was shoved in their face and teased and then taken away. Who is affraid to stand up and say anything because some loyalist fanboy or what ever the hell your position is will try to crucify them online. I dont know what your freakin problem is, i dont care about the damn companies stock, i care about people like my who play and buy, cause its obvious noone else does, and all you care about is the freakin company.

You think the bottom line and price of stock will go anywhere if they take your advice and announce a game a month before release? Anticipation, hype, etc will all work in the favor of a game. Consumers are not getting hurt in the process, they will get hurt if a crappy game is released. From the impressions I read, the demo builds they had up last year left a mediocre taste in peoples mouths, there simply wasn't enough to do in the game. Let them delay it a year and put more stuff into it.

But that fact i got dissapointed apparently offends everyone, and i have no idea why.

If you know nothing of something, why would you bother buying it? By not advertising, not making demos/vids, you gain no fan-base and have no one to market to or any reason to release the game. Your disappointment is understandable but your reasoning is futile. Think of all the Duke Nukem Forever fans for example: they've been waiting for more than a decade, but they are still hoping for its release, not wishing they'd never heard about it.
