I probably disagree here; people are psychologically structured in such a way that if they want to achieve success, they must completely focus on their goal. A person can't do several serious tasks well at once. Therefore, working on two games simultaneously isn't a good idea.I'm "active" on this thread because I prefer SG before Wiab (sorry guys), but if he wants to make two games, with all the problems that means, it's his choice. And if for him works like a method to prevent burnout, I'm good.

Tell Brandon Sanderson he's approaching writing wrong. He's a nice guy - he probably won't burst out laughing until after you're out of earshot.
Or is it somehow different when he alternates books from different series than when Ocean alternates chapters from different games?
as much as i like/love hes work its sad and these games both of them will never be finished , it goes for far to long and far to few updates on top of the reworks.

Cool example. Now compare the number of finished works between the two.
Yeah well peoples should take a chill pill for once!
Maybe you should remember how things where back in the days: Whe learned that a game was beeing made via magasine, witch was prior to the internet.
Game studio/compagny had a whole team dedicated for one project. Then the game came out like a years and a half to 2 years max out after it was announced.
Fast foward to theses day, people make game in theyre house while having a life outside the fews projects theyre working on.
So yeah, calm to way down!
If i was a game dev doing 1 or 2 game and as a one man team, i might be tempted to say fuck it and scrap the whole thing since some people dont care about the life of the game dev.
If you where all so eager to get news, theyre a fews way to know the game dev log like facebook page dedicaded to the game, actually getting on subscribe star since patreon is out the window and such.

Not a very good comparison, Sanderson concentrates entirely on his book, and after finishing it he starts the next one. Ocean works on one game for a bit, then starts working on another, and so he constantly jumps between games. You could even say that he makes two games at once. The result of this was well described by Perfect S.

Hey, I understand your point, I even agree, but working on two projects at the same time it's a reallity, it exists and works too.
I suppose people just need to choose what they want. But for me both options are legit.
Of course if he works only in one game, results would be faster, but it's his choice. I think it's his idea for the plot too, playing both games and realizing the connections between them with each update, no matter if it's SG or Wiab.
We're just happy that...

Or did you mean another pack of 4K wallpapers?
I think we, as reasonable fans, will hang out in the thread for another couple of years, maybe he will release an hour and a half long demo. Btw, I even saw some animations, maybe he really does something (or just stole from some fan thread).It's really weird to get notifications from this thread now with the abandoned tag

Oceanlab's output is fundamentally insubstantial; it's a 'just vibes' aesthetic with no narrative foundation. Devoid of context, character, or even a basic plot, it's no wonder that an endeavor which never truly began is now failing to conclude in a satisfying way. The surprise surrounding its failure is, itself, surprising.

Damn necromancers keep bringing this dead thread back to lifeIt's really weird to get notifications from this thread now with the abandoned tag
Seriously though, I thought the tag would bring about memes and funnies for a few weeks but a lot of people really seem to be riding this pony...
