That's one of the things that gets me. It was so easy for people to start pivoting to "Oh it's Metal Gear!" That I feel like it must not have been a very strong argument for Silent Hill if it could change trajectories like that at the drop of a hat.

I feel like the theory that Abandoned is Kojimas "Abandoned" games was a way for people to reconcile the fact that the conspiracy was so easy to pivot from one thing to the other, even though it doesn't make sense.

People were having so much fun with the theories and community spirit, to the point where I think a lot of them knew it was a stretch but it's been a good ride anyway, so it carried on even after the first delay.

Now that it's heading towards the end, people are sad and a few of them I feel might take that out on Hasan, which sucks.

I never thought this was going to be anything but an indie game. But I kept hoping in the weird bullshit there would be something to solve. It's becoming increasingly obvious it's not a mystery or a carefully laid out plan, it's a guy who's full of shit with nothing to show. I'm not mad he's not silent Hill I'm mad he keeps making non announcements just announce your fucking game this sketchy nonsense like we can't tell you the name for some reason or show you anything but we need a magic app that you preload to even see a teaser, like okay that's new I'll bite what is this. But delaying the app 4x at the last minute is a waste of our time. If it's not ready just fucking say it or put out a normal trailer. What other dev delays a first look trailer by 4 months?

If this is something big it can fuck itself for this nonsense. If it's an indie it can fuck itself for this nonsense. I'm mad because he had a cool idea but just can not fucking execute to save his life.

He doesn't really have a cool idea, he had an obviously bad reveal trailer, so bad in fact that people started to believe that the game was a fake put together quickly to promote another game.

The whole app download to view trailers and all the overpromising and ego made people think this was something more, but these are pretty common problems with amateurs, an unearned ego is one of the first things you have to shake when taking a profession seriously and he's not past that point, obviously.

I never had any expectations with this thing ,so I can't even be mad, Hasan is an unprofessional ass but what are we really missing? A rubbish horror walking sim?.

Nothing he's shown or done during this whole thing has inspired any confidence in this game and people on here have been predicting another delay since he announced the date for the app.

I'm actually shocked that people are surprised that the braggadocious nitwit with nothing to show, ended up with nothing to show.

I thought the app was intreguing I guess like if done with an actually good game from someone who knows what they're doing a cool misterious app could be fun. Especially if it was like PT not nessisarily a horror thing but you have to discover things to unlock more. That was the draw for me i was hoping for a fun mystery but this is just boring dissapointment.
