The creator of the
Dragon Age series and the experienced developer of BioWare Mark Darrah is a YouTube released video. According to Darrah, one of the main reasons behind the early announcement of games, avoid the cancellation of projects by broadcasters.
Games Early Announcement From Why It Needed?
Darrah states that it is a few strategic reasons for early announcement of AAA games. “The reason for this can be that the list of the publisher is slightly weak, and it is still important games in the back pocket of the public. Studio may want to be announced by the game because otherwise they may be concerned that the broadcaster may kill the game,” says Darrah. This is a strategy used to show that the publishers are still in the development phase of important projects to investors and the community of players.
Mark Darrah accepts that the games are not always the best strategy. However, this step can sometimes be necessary to ensure that projects run smoothly. Early announcements provide a guarantee to continue the development process of games by reducing the risk of canceling projects of studios and publishers.
Dragon Age developer also claims that AAA projects are not long as we think of the active development process. Publishers can sometimes impose that even 10 people are in the development phase of a game. This situation shows that a small core team works instead of a big team in the process of developing games and projects can stay in the idea phase for a long time.
Darrah, it can cause the game to take a long time in the idea stage, the active development process is shorter than it is worn. We may think that a game has been developed in parallel with another game, but in fact, it doesn’t work too much. This emphasizes the complexity and long-term planning of the development process of AAA games.
