Announced, Delayed, Disappeared: The Games Still In Limbo

Announced, Delayed, Disappeared: The Games Still In Limbo https://ift.tt/js6RUQv The days of relatively short development cycles for big-budget AAA games feels like a distant memory, as it's not uncommon for titles to spend many years in development. These days, a five-year production cycle isn't uncommon at all, and some games take the better part of a decade to be released. Such lengthy waits aren't intrinsically bad, as games like Crimson Desert and Doom 2016 were worth the wait. But right now? Numerous studios have been toiling away on their respective projects, keeping out of the spotlight and offering little to no updates along the way. Some of them have undergone drastic overhauls behind the scenes, and others were announced way too early with slick teaser trailers that were designed to excite fans and recruit people to the project.

A few seconds into the trailer, Lifeline, Loba, and Mad Maggie can be seen fighting Catalyst, with Lifeline wielding a very odd-looking bladed melee weapon. Many Legends have already received an Heirloom Weapon, and Lifeline is one of them. Some Legends, like Wraith and Revenant, have even gotten a second Heirloom Weapon--but so far, those secondary weapons have always been identical in appearance to the original Heirloom, essentially receiving a new weapon skin rather than a new weapon entirely.
