Gamers are urging developers to stop the frustrating trend of announcing new games years before they’re scheduled for release.

Man you know how hard it is to keep quiet about art youre working on? Stuff leaks eventually anyway.

I'd rather get the news from leaks when it's actually in production instead of a title screen 3 years before production really starts.

The leaks leading up to the announcement of armored core 6 had me hyped. I got more hyped when they announced it was going to release in 8 months, and now its just around the corner.

Certainly feels better than still waiting for crumbs on metroid prime 4, fable, etc.

Unrelated; How is anyone going to have time to play Armored Core 6, Baldurs Gate 3, and Starfield all launching so close together lol

Yeah and atleast with leaks you don't get fervent talk about the game and what it might be like, building up hope before seeing true gameplay and then being immediately disappointed when seeing it in action. That Dune MMO is going to disappoint me I'm sure.

is this sarcasm?

Not particularly, things that are leaks or rumors have stayed out of my sight for the most part. But CGI trailers at big gaming conventions get more eyes, get more people talking about. Atleast from my point of view, I just follow mainstream gaming news.
