Ossian Studios - The Shadow Sun Announced

Yeah why not even one screenshot? I doubt that giving us one in-game shot will completely spoil the game to us.

Seriously though, I never doubted that they will release the game eventually, I'm only afraid that they won't make such a good impression with Shadow sun as they could've years ago. (Note: same goes for Forgotten memories).

I think we've been incredibly lucky that there's still nothing quite like TSS on the platform. So I don't think the game has suffered particularly - if anything, it's a lot better than it would have been two years ago.

You would need to ask Alan that.

I hope so too!

I have no problem with them not showing any in-game footage or screenshots.Besides,if game concept and gameplay is really revolutionary , or anything new and fresh apart from generic and hybrid clone games other developers serve us in store every day , it will become popular soon even without releasing teasers, screens and hyping up people way before it's done( which tends to anger lot of people when developers postpone game release ).Also, I believe developer team put a lot of effort into making this game and they are all veterans in game development, so I trust their developing and marketing judgement and just hope they will feel comfortable soon to reveal more about game.

have u been waiting for over two years for this game? Did u here it will be out in 2010 op wait nope it walnt then it was 2011 and nope,this develoupers keeps leading us on... Wait for it they say, we haven't gotten anything new sense 2011 this game is develoupers using unity, wel so is mine and its almost done... So I don't want to hear it...

I am still looking forward to this game, if it ever gets released.

At the Developers:
I can understand if you do not want to show any screenshots/teasers/whatever before you feel ready for it. Still, it is a bit odd for a game that is in development for 3+ years now.

From a Customer Communications point of view, you really leave us hanging and could do a better job, have to say it bluntly. And that gives the impression of Vaporware(TM), unfortunately.
The last news entry on your homepage about TSS is from 23.12.2012, with a "You’ll be hearing from us in early 2013." statement/promise.
Well, it is early 2013 now, but no news so far.
Noone expects you to invest huge amounts of time into updating people who wait for this.
But at least a monthly update with a few lines (e.g. "reached milestone X, all 3D assets completed" , "Translations into Klingon and simplified Chinese finally done") couldn't hurt anyone.

Your post is from December 7th, you are referring to a month later, early January, it's now February 19th. Everything Ossian studio has said has been a lie, any reason why I should believe you now? Or are you once again going to blame the other guy saying that you need his permission to take a dump?

Get it together Ossian studio, people don't like being lied to, and you don't need to have a degree in marketing to know that. At this point no marketing would have been better than this mess of lies and deception.

Uhm, you just sound like a mix between Rhett Butler and Abraham Lincoln.

To be fair it takes about 30 seconds to go onto TA and update us, and a few minutes to upload a photo, nobody is "too busy to be on here".
