I seem to recall an OSE employee (probably gone now) stating how they were playing an in-house SS3 build. Totally believable at this point!
Eh, I wouldn't be surprised if they have a vertical slice to test out game mechanics and whatnot. Nothing close to being feature complete or having all of the world built out, but a section or two that they can run though for testing purposes/demonstrations for potential publishers is pretty believable. Unless Warren can conjure up a miracle, I doubt we're ever going to see a finished product, but I don't have a problem accepting that the game is to a certain extent, "playable".I seem to recall an OSE employee (probably gone now) stating how they were playing an in-house SS3 build.

They could be making narrative-driven parts (the main storyline, for example), while leaving the rest fairly open to the player. It may not be likely, but it's technically possible.Apparently they're working on another game with Square Enix. (It would be funny if it's Thi5f. Likely not, because the studio's focus is apparently narrative-driven games.)
They worked on so many things at once while the only game they prepared to actually bring to the market was completely broken.
I have seen cutscenes for the Life is Tumbler spinoff and you do not want them to make a story for thief, trust me.They could be making narrative-driven parts (the main storyline, for example), while leaving the rest fairly open to the player. It may not be likely, but it's technically possible.
yeah chris left the industry.
20 years was enough.
Hey folks, I’ve been off on some needed time off so catching up on things now.
Unfortunately, some of the figurines broke in our shipping to FanGamer. We’re going to have some new ones made and painted, but that’s going to delay fulfillment a bit longer. I don’t have the specific schedule for how quickly the new figurines can be made and then painted, but it’s at least a handful of weeks. Will keep you posted.
At this point it feels like kicking a dead horse.
how do you ship something that doesn't exist"Some" of the figurines broke. Can they at least ship those that didn't break?
The saddest thing is the few people who were actually trying to do a job working on this, who will now have to explain this on their resume blaming management and the "other guys".
They're an extremely capable and talented team
Oh yeah I don't question the skill of the team
I'll still look forward to the work these guys put out, because they've earned a lot of good will
This team is capable of so much more; it's a shame the game didn't come together in the end.
it wasn't their fault, just bad management, lol.
