Why a Destiny 3 Would Take So Long (Industry Expert Speaks)

Its gonna take 6 years because they should of started 3 years ago lol

"AAA-checklist" is the main problem

I know from listening to Larion developer interviews, they keep bringing up design flow or efficiency. They are constantly simplifying processes and using automation whenever they can. I remember a hearing they have a program that rapidly test scenes. So they quickly make a scene, ran it through the program to easily pick out the big problems and fix them. Then turn it over to the QA team.

Damn it's crazy, it's almost like we paid for D3 years ago or something wild like that

Love Cross, "I don't wanna stir the pot" *slowly reaches for ladle*

gaming is so different than it used to be

I wish sony never listened to bungie in making marathon and forced them to start D3 as a condition of buying them.

23:07 I'm getting flashbacks of Skeletor screaming "They fired Michael Fucking Salvatori!"

In the words of the great Cayde-6 "sometimes, you just have to learn to let go"

Everyone acting like Destiny 2 wasn't released 9 years ago giving them AMPLE TIME to produce D3, even with letting D2 ride for several years before starting the next project. Go back ~5 years, look at the Bungie leadership at that time, and you have your list of people who decided to not make D3.

8:48 Cross pouring concrete mentioned

Over size development teams and too many problem children in the kitchen, that nobody wants to hurt their feelings. So when a game hits the market and developers find out no one wanted it, they blame the consumers

All his points are mute when you see Expedition 33 and their budget and the small team they had. You don't need a billion dollars and 2000 employees, just a clear vision, talented, and passionate people. Then boom, GOTY

That documentary about the making of Psychooddysey is the best documentary on this process there will ever be!

I never really asked why it takes games longer to make as the years go on.

I just want more D2 man

Its funny, they say the reason games cost so much to make is because of salary costs, but at the same time game developers are living out of their cars and barely scrapping by so how exactly is that working? Oh wait yeah, maybe if they stop giving their executives millions of dollars to do nothing they could save some costs. Maybe you could streamline the developing process and find ways to save time if you didnt lay off your entire studio and have to start from scratch with each new project. You know, have some knowledge carrying over through the years. Indie devs are doing these things just fine.

Didn't he hide the blizzard harassment cases because he was writing a book that contain them so he can make a profit?

0:52 It kind of looks like Aztecross is drinking liquor, straight from the bottle. (Times are tough, these days...) He was hitting the bottle pretty hard throughout the video.

Space Marine 2 already proves Jason Schreier wrong.
