Scorn’s developers have officially announced that the game has been postponed to 2022.
Scorn has been postponed! This is officially announced by the developers and will use the additional time to release Scorn in 2022 with more tweaking and polishing.
“Microsoft as a partner: People are suspicious of large companies, and mostly for good reason, but in our case there was nothing but support from everyone involved. We are surprised ourselves how smoothly everything went. Some think that the influx of resources would lead to more problems and that we should complete the game with as few resources as possible. “
“Creating an interesting and engaging game takes time and resources. Period. Money is what allows us to create something of quality. Enthusiasm alone doesn’t get you very far. We have a duty to keep them informed of the progress on a regular basis, but the builds we send them are the builds we are doing anyway. These builds don’t need to be polished as the industry understands unfinished builds (games in development) to be something else. For the general public, things need to be polished. That’s a big difference. Some people just want to see the progress and they don’t care that it’s an unfinished game, but others will judge it as a finished product. “
“We hope to make a great game and our backers will get this great game, that is the bottom line and our main goal. We’ll get there as quickly as possible and with as few distractions as possible. If people want to stay with us until the end, great, if not we still offer a way out
“Release plans: For the record: Yes, the game has slipped into 2022 and we will have official confirmation of the delay on December 10th.” It was supposed to be announced in October, but circumstances beyond our control have postponed it. If it shouldn’t be on December 10th, because we or someone else wanted it that way, don’t hold it against us. “
“And finally, some friendly advice: If you’re so bothered by the lack of communication, just ask for a refund and it’s over. It’s just a game. You can play it when it comes out, if you are still interested. “
