Oh man, Adrian looks so old now.

Wonder what they'll be working on together.

Oh man, when Adrian first holds out that blurry black object, I saw it as a controller for the HTC Vive virtual reality headset. My heart started racing as I worried that GZ3Doom was being scooped on Vive support.

I predict the lack of ADS, reloading and regenerating health in this one. But it's gonna be awesome to see the old guys come back.

Does anybody feel a Daikatana vibe to it? Traveling across time periods in an adventure/fps game seems familiar to me.

But this time you are 1337 hax0r shooty person!

I like the concept, and it is cool to see these two working together again, but I'm going to need to see a bit more before I get super excited. (rn I'm just regular excited)

While this LOOKS disasterous, I have some hope they really mean business. The future of their project is in how well the demo looks and plays.

I don't think it was cancelled. It was put on hold until they have something to show off. I hate how the word cancel keeps getting thrown around on these guys. Meanwhile another Call of Duty is being made and nobody has to question it... sigh.

I do not think it looks disastrous, in fact I think the opposite. This is for the better, since they'll get much more support when they have a campaign with a demo, and not off of names alone. That was the main concern for most people, so it shows that they're listening.

EDIT:
The veteran designer said they’re not in a massive rush to hurry up, get all the money and start making the game. Instead, they want to do it the right way and will finish the demo then hit reset. They expect to have the demo ready in a month or so and will relaunch the Kickstarter at that point with the same goal and reward structure.
This is good.

I say looks disastrous because the media keeps saying "cancelled" when really they're not.
