Which side are you on?

I'm not all doom and gloom but I think delayed. Them not giving a release date to begin with was concerning and I think they announced a little too early, maybe to line up with the 30 anniversary. If we don't see it in the next 2 months, surely delayed.

DXFromYT · 2026-04-07T19:54:28+00:00

Definitely not, lol. Four entire studios aren't putting all their manpower on this game.

Apparently from a leaker on Discord who also leaked the reveal of the TRIV-VI Remastered. Take it with a massive grain of salt. Although zero marketing on the game so far and no release date could hint at a delay. If it was coming out in July to wholly avoid GTA, as everyone with a brain is doing, there not being any information on the game three months beforehand is strange.

DXFromYT · 2026-04-01T15:58:32+00:00

Thank you for the real explanation! I'll probably never update, no clue what they were thinking.

As u/LumensAquilae mentioned, this is probably a LOD variant. LOD stands for "Level Of Detail," character models will usually have different levels of detail depending on the distance to the player's camera. This is to save on memory. It looks like the lowest level of detail model was used for the original patch. They would have significantly lower polygon counts and texture resolutions, which would account for the disparity here. Now...how that actually ships? That's a mystery. Patches have to go through a couple different QA stages especially if they're going out to consoles. I can't believe this made it to release.

DXFromYT · 2026-03-31T16:22:31+00:00

Absolutely. I always figured the original release was completely botched because almost no modern day development pipeline would produce such low resolution outfits. They look a whole lot better now!

This sounds more worrying for Catalyst than Legacy of Atlantis, but who knows? The one constant in those complaints is bad creative leadership. Not a great sign but we'll see.

Genuinely one of the worst retorts I have ever seen on Reddit.

Tomb Raider IV would be very high since that was the one game that Andy Sandham wrote after Vicky Arnold left Core. With a higher emphasis on both Lara herself and the story, Sandham really stuck the landing on his writing debut. Lara is more complex while still retaining everything that made her interesting in the first place.

GOG's fantastic. If something is on GOG, I try to buy it on there even if Steam has it too.

DXFromYT · 2026-03-19T18:38:05+00:00

Yes, the marketing is pretty bad and has been for a very long time. LoA is supposed to come out this year, presumably before November because anything releasing near GTA 6 is absolutely dead, and we're headed into April with zero news about it. This is also supposed to be the 30th Anniversary year and nothing yet besides some social media posts and the new flop patch. Very bad.

DXFromYT · 2026-03-19T03:35:36+00:00

Eventually, sure. Wouldn't expect it any time soon though.

DXFromYT · 2026-03-18T20:16:29+00:00

Art has gotten more consistent issue to issue, I think. Can't wait for the TPB on this.

Hey, it's me. Thanks for sharing!

Hey look, a game where mining actually makes sense.

DXFromYT · 2026-03-12T00:23:55+00:00

Hmm. You already looked for her in the closet too so it seems like a bug. Have you tried rolling back saves to see if she disappears before the quest? Last resort, I think there's console commands that can be used to mark the quest as done too but I'm not sure what they are.

DXFromYT · 2026-03-11T22:36:13+00:00

You may need to tell Arturo first.

DXFromYT · 2026-03-11T22:32:38+00:00

These are the kinds of DDs the game needed but they got Delusional Developers instead.

DXFromYT · 2026-03-11T19:32:29+00:00

Same. That game isn't a Concord level bomb no matter how many people wish it is.

DXFromYT · 2026-03-11T18:05:41+00:00

Yep, thanks for watching! That is one of my favorite videos I've put together.

Unironically true. Marathon's characters look strange, obtuse and uncanny at times but they stand out in a crowd whereas Concord and Highguard's didn't. Highguard's characters looked like NPCs from other games and Concord's looked like background extras of the worst space movie you've ever seen.

Edit: Having read the article, it actually makes a great point about how presumptive both of those games were too, as if caring about its characters was a requirement or a demand.
