He was the creative director for Sea of Thieves.

[Staffy]

Surely they will keep the assets that are already there? Like the characters, creatures and the environment?

Hey, @Opatschi , looks like Rare didn’t kow what the game was after all

A 2024 release would mark a decade of development for Everwild, which spent many years in experimental prototyping before its eventual announcement in 2019.

According to people familiar with development, Everwild’s small team had struggled to define a clear direction for the title, beyond its striking art style and soundtrack.

As of last year, the game was a third-person adventure with god game elements, we’re told, though it’s unclear how much of this will remain when Everwild eventually reappears.

According to that VGC article, the dude has been one of the most creative leads at Rare going all the way back to Donkey Kong Country. I’m guessing he’s a safe pair of hands at the very least.

Sea of Thieves was a result of Microsoft wanting to get the game out because there wasn’t much. And even then, SoT’s concept is original and not seen in any other games. Moreover, it is still standing high right now.

[ProgStopper]

Whose creative director on Sea of Thieves?

[Biggzy (Hassan)]

Everwild seems like it is Xbox’s Last Guardian, a game that also no doubt was rebooted during development.

This is good news, an experienced pair of hands to make sure the project comes to fruition.

…and Sea of Thieves was greenlighted (2014) in times when that d#ck Phil Harrison worked at Xbox and managed European studios (2012–2015). He beloved in multiplayer-only games, live-service-only games, etc. That’s why Sea of Thieves is that what it is, that’s why Lionhead developed Fable Legends focused on multiplayer and even if they had great ideas for single-player Fable IV, Harrison didn’t care what that. Thank god he’s gone from Xbox!

At least Sea of Thieves became some kind of success after all.
