Cool, but I mean, developers are no longer shy about saying "Oh sorry we're delaying that another 16 months, we'll have something to show then honest."

This was also when they revamped the website and the store page to remove all the old art to replace it with the new. They were almost but not quite ready to show it off and didn't want to deal with angry people after announcing other games.

World of Darkness LARPers happen to be among the most obnoxious try-harders I've witnessed in any tabletop scene, too.

Didn't a few of them actually get jobs at White Wolf? I seem to recall at least one or two of them in that WoD 'documentary'.

That sounds wild. Revealing a game in September and releasing it in October? I forget, how long has it been since they got rid of the previous dev team?

Re-reveal and then nearly two months later, they're gonna release it? Call me skeptical unless Paradox just wants it out ASAP and be done with it forever. On the same day as Alan Wake 2, no less.

Yeah, when they said they weren't going to announce it until they had a release date locked in I wouldn't have thought that would actually mean "within two months of release." Not even a bit earlier at gamescom? Unless they believe PAX West is more appropriate simply because it's in Seattle, which is silly.
After BG3 and Starfield is certainly a "What are you doing, do you have no choice?" move.

February 2021. 2 years and 8 months if accurate. Cutting it a bit tight, but not impossible.

This will sink badly even if it is good. Which is highly questionable

I would love the "history repeats, first as tragedy then as farce" aspect of it.

Zero percent chance VTMB2 actually comes out in October.
That would mean the game is done, finished, fully playable, right now.
With no developer announced, no leaks? No chance.
I guess unless they're releasing Act I of III, or some other EA shenanigans.

Yeah, they might have decided to go with Larian BG3 way of early access. Otherwise, i see no chance.

Tango Gameworks's Hi-Fi Rush was released the very day it was announced.

Yeah, but no one gave a damn nor was looking forward for it, either.
A “leak” would have been welcomed with a “Wow, really? Now please help us carry all these fucks we don’t give about it”.

The reason they kept it a secret was because they were concerned about the backlash since it was so unlike their previous games.
It was also a hit (a lot of people crowed about how it demolished Forspoken). Just because you personally don't care about it doesn't mean a lot of other people don't.

Chad Japanese honor and quietly humble culture vs Virgin American't low trust society full of backstabbers, clout chasers and mindrotted sjws
If we we close to an actual release there would be leaks & all sorts of marketing and astroturfed drama

I see what you're saying here, but no one involved in this is American.
Paradox is Swedish, the alleged new studio is British.
