"Here's the fact: the game did not go as we wanted" - talk cancellation Bethesda Prey 2

Prey 2 sounded pretty good, huh? the cast as a human bounty hunter in space and promising open parkour chases where you take down your prey of others by whatever means necessary, which was to be a very different beast from the first game. Unfortunately, it was canceled by the editors of Bethesda.

Hopefully none of our next list of PC games are canceled.

At the time of the cancellation of the game, there were rumors Bethesda Human Head forcing developers to miss deadlines, in an attempt to acquire the studio when not delivered on time. Speaking to Metro, vice president of public relations and marketing for Bethesda strongly denied these claims.

"Here's the fact :. The game did not go as we wanted did not work, and it was not," Hines said. "I find it very interesting that gives me plenty more questions about Prey 2 is canceling of Doom 4 it is canceled. Everyone seems to forget that they actually canceled a game Doom in ID to almost exactly the same reasons, and started again. "`

As for the suggestion that the study did it on purpose Bethesda landmarks of failure, Hines said, "utter nonsense'll just say this :. do not know what possible reason would have to spend millions of dollars to create something and then suddenly He decides arbitrarily: "no, we do not realize our money out of what we have put into it '. We are publisher, we are paying the developer. we are putting all the money in it. "

He went on to explain the costs involved in taking the game to E3, showing off the press and everything related to that. He says the idea that publishers will say goodbye to the investment and not see anything like that again is "the dumbest argument" I have ever heard.

As for the claims of an attempted forced acquisition, Hines flatly denies it. "We have no predilection for the acquisition of property to someone or not," he said. "We have not bought anyone, I remember, in the last five or how many years. I think Tango [Gameworks, the studio behind the evil within] was the last acquisition. It's not like we're on a tear acquisition."

Instead of Prey 2, we are now receiving the dam, a form completely new take on the IP led by developers Arkane dishonored. This simulator immersion space-set sees you taking shapeshifting aliens and stripped of his powers.
