The first major TF game in 10 years… and it amounted to nothing. We the fandom continue to take L after L. At least there’s the possibility of Cybertron remasters. The fact we have even 1% more of a chance of getting them back compared to 8 years ago is insane.
@@PlayWatchViewKayden Wait seriously Hasbro is 🤬 stupid man this game would have been in hands instead of the trash but nope they spend money on splash damage and got nothing return. If I were them I'll be begging to High Moon Studios to save this game
Reactivate is that one game that has a lot of potential, but it has everything going against it. Cancelation for it was inevitable, but it stings a lot.
This is just super depressing to watch and it looks like that we'll never see a another Good Transformers Game and it'll probably stay that way. The Transformers Games deserves better than this.
Why should they when they took over a decade to make it, and it isn’t even finished? So much time and resources was wasted with this game’s development. It seemed like they didn’t know where to take this game. If it was released it probably would’ve been an unfinished mess or disappointing.
@@Luke_Taggart it's a live service game, it's gonna be an unfinished mess AND disappointing by design lmao look I know it's subjectivity and all but I struggle to see how this is a "looked this good" situation. it has all the telltale elements of a very typical live service slop: yes the core mechanic of the gameplay looks fine (the shooting, transforming, character skills etc) but you're put in an overblown open world with barely anything in it, and the missions that exist are such stunning revelations as "defend 3 pillars" and "defeat a surge of enemies". with the live service structure I think it's safe to assume that we're gonna have to do those missions a hundred dozen times too just to get 5% more defense for a specific elemental damage or whatever. but TF fans are too starved of content that this becomes something that's worth fighting for ig
@@honteebee to add to that, live service games need to be constantly updated and given new content in order to stay alive e.g. Fortnite. However, it doesn’t seem like splash damage would have the resources nor capability to do this if this is what years of work amounted to. It’s probably for the best that Reactivate was cancelled
@Kyle_Hanson That’s why I’m tired of everything trying to be live service. Cause it encourages unfinished and lackluster games. It also gives off the impression that the game you made was made solely for money due to all the microtransactions you shoved into it.
Basically This Confirms Wee will never gonna get another Transformers video game and that's is the cruel reality wee all have to face 😢 I already lost hope for that to happen.
When I heard that it got canceled, I then IMMEDIATELY bought the action figures that were already made. I made it my mission to rebuild my Transformers Collection and I am so sad and heartbroken to see and hear that this game got canceled when it had so much potential.
This game actually look good, I always wanted to play as transformers again since the last time I play Transformers The Game back in late 2000s, I remember to love playing as Blackout
This is just sad I loved the war for Cybertron games of transformers and this game could've been like the successor to it and it would've been awesome to officially have it
This game deserved a chance 😢. Seeing the gameplay I must say that this game was awesome. But it's a matter of sorrow that such awesome game didn't see the light 😢. It was done with care and you can see the amount of details it had, after the previous transformers game it could have been a game changer. 😔
because when a game gets officially cancelled and the NDA stops being valid and stuff, only then are the devs free to release this kind of thing this isn't a marketing thing, this is just a "welp this is how much we managed to get done"
Hopefully the interest in the project is enough for them to at least utilize what they have or did make a new game in the style they were going for. If has to really is going to focus on gameing thares no way they aren't going to try something like reactivate
@jeremychicken3339 hasbro has consistently given the projects to people who either don't know the lore or care about the characters, it is absolutely hasbro's fault that everything after Fall of Cybertron fell short.
@@Realist.exe. no. my god. how can yall know so little about game development and talk THIS much shit about it it's been well documented for one that ROTDS was the result of WFC/FOC not selling enough for activision which is why activision folded it into a semi movie tie-in bullshit and then just pulled the plug on the whole thing when that didn't make them the money they wanted either. same goes to devastation. hasbro is just a licensor, activision was the publisher and owner of the development studios (which is why HM was moved to deadpool as well, because they wanted the marvel bag because they want all the money in the world) splash damage has made it very clear that they had internal struggles and had to downsize after this because they weren't actually able to sustain the development. unless hasbro owned splash damage (which they don't) then this isn't hasbro's fault either, it's just another story of gamedev hell that just happened to have the TF license. it's like if you blame DC for batgirl being shelved when it's all WB's own fucked up decision the most that hasbro might be "at fault" in are the shovelware games that they likely just licensed out as cheap tie-in to the cheap shows they produced, but beyond those (and in those instances as well) hasbro isn't a game development studio or even a game publisher that can have much say about the actual games being developed. what does any of this even have anything to do with ThE lOrE or whatever

Crappy how hasbro baited us with this game and before cancelling this game they released a low budget cyber verse racing game. Hasbro needs to get their priorities in check.
hasbro didn't """bait""" anyone with this game when they don't develop the game in the first place seriously how involved do yall think hasbro is with every TF game that exists. they have the IP license that they may license to game studios, and that's it. meanwhile idk why we need to redirect the blame to hasbro when everything that we've heard of this game is such a typical game development hell story that almost always revolves around the developers' internal management being incompetent and that alone

Sad to hear it's no longer in development. Sad that people might've lost their jobs. But at least it is at rest now and there is no more waiting.
Big true we finally get to put it to rest.
Do you think that they might go back into development later on?
Ain’t gonna lie This hurts… this hurts a lot look how good the gameplay is 😢
Even in its unfinished buggy state I still want to play it just so I can experience what never was 😢

Its like hasbro does not care about us, i have hopes for the cybertron games returning tho, they were my child hood

This is just super depressing to watch and it looks like that we'll never see a another Good Transformers Game and it'll probably stay that way.

Yeah it was. Splash themselves announced it
Honestly, I don't see any gameplay improvements compared to the Fall of Cybertron.
Aint it crazy how we get this after the announcement that its been canceled
Hopefully hasbro's in-house development team has been cooking something up to replace this with.
Rip transformers reactivate

Are there going to be more gameplay of different characters
Can't wait to see what each of the other characters do

I would’ve loved to see the finished version of this game. 😢
It would be better if all the efforts and resources spent went to a new game from High Moon Studios about Cybertron.
reactivate really got the 1313 treatment
There needs to be more weight to the animation, the car needs to have less resistance, it’s almost annoying
Developer Splash Damage will regret having cancelled this new game to jump-start a new continuity after Earthspark
RIP sweet angel
No offense, why are we getting this if the game was just cancelled?
because when a game gets officially cancelled and the NDA stops being valid and stuff, only then are the devs free to release this kind of thing
this isn't a marketing thing, this is just a "welp this is how much we managed to get done"

@@honteebeewell I don’t think they got that much done since they had old assets to go off of from like 2017
no surprise TRANSFOREMRS ONLINE - CLOSED / TRANSFORMERS UNIVERSE - CLOSED

Can we download this as a playable build?
I still have hope for this game
Ok, other than texture not being finalized, this looks almost complete. Why would they can it now?
