I just realized that Elden Ring is a PS4/Xbox One game. I thought it was next gen for some reason. I hope the game has a next gen update.

Lance McDonald weighs in
Maybe people will start putting less stock on Grubb's word. I believed Jason's stance more somewhat soon and that could definitely be june.
On the top of my head, I remember Total War: Three Kingdoms got leaked a day before its announcement and CA decided to then just announce it at that day. Not exactly the same but similar I guess.
Yeah, Grubb hasn't been reliable at all when it comes to Elden Ring. I think all his predictions were just guesses.
Grubb mainly does informed predictions with some inside information sparkled in between. He probably saw the leaked footage before many and jumped to conclusions.
The issue with the "just announce it since it leaked" thing is that this wasn't a case of the trailer leaking early, what leaked wasn't their trailer at all. It's possible that the video/event/whatever they were planning just isn't ready. Nothing you can do about that.
Reverse engineering games does not mean you have inside knowhow into how From works or contacts there.
Yeah exactly. Just because internal assets are leaked doesn't mean it reflects any of the promotional material that is actually going to be shared with the public or that those even are ready to begin with.
All of these "should happen soon" predictions by these insiders have been based on that they've seen the leaked stuff and nothing more. I mean both Imran and Grubb were open about it. They reached out to Bandai Namco and got no response from them.
Ss instead of revealing it earlier because of the leeks, they delay it even further ?!
Elden Ring Reveal Possibly Pushed Back Due to Leak, Expect Something by June Says Insider
A few brief, blurry seconds of Elden Ring footage leaked last week, but it seems that sneak preview may end up costing us.wccftech.com
This makes no sense :\

It's hilarious how quick you people can turn on someone just because 1 person who very likely has less industry contacts makes a single remark.
Even if Grubb is/was wrong and he very well may be, y'all act like he's never been right about a single thing. The dude literally created the roadmap for most leaks and events before their announcements for the last 2 years.

Why would you push it back because of a leak? Especially given the build that was seen was super old.
Surely you get ahead quick sharp and release proper footage as soon as possible so that people don't care about the leaked footage anymore.

Yeah, a delay doesn't seem right.
Like there's a bunch of hype about the game and the leaked trailer.
It probably just wasn't planned to be shown then.
But I haven't seen the traile. Was that was super rough? Like, X Men Origins style. Just two t-posed knights duking it out.

No one is doubting his sources when it comes to other stuff, but he has been wrong on everything Elden Ring related. It may just be a really unlucky sequence of events, but it makes his sources look suspect when it comes to this game specifically.
There was nothing quite as crazy as that. It looked fine if a bit unfinished when it comes to graphical detail and effects. There were huge watermarks over everything.
might have might have not, fact is Jeff most likely took a guess and was wrong and now is pinning on the leak.
let's be real, no company ever took a decision based on a leak haha.
sounds about right
I guarantee you it was an educated guess
Grubb is never not going to tell people about a leak, legit or not.
I mean Nintendo did cancel a whole slate of shows based on a leak...

Nintendo reportedly scrapped a live-action Legend of Zelda series with Netflix after news of the project leaked online.
The thing with Grubb is that he got "big." That makes him a target for the keyboard warriors who want to "own" him. He's probably off here, but some of the "criticism" he gets is not a result of him being wrong but because he is a big name. And now every time he puts forth news on a leak or whatnot people will bring this up.
Just like every time Tom Philips/Eurogamer report on a leak involving Nintendo there are always posts about Pokemon Stars. Same thing with Emily Rogers and people bringing up her Mario Kart stuff.

reportedly is still rumour tho. high chance this show never existed since Nintendo denies every animation studio who pitches them since forever.
There's plenty more examples across the entertainment industry, I just used this one because it was the most recent. It does happen, though not frequently.
Cancelled a trailer launch, maybe, maybe not. Cancelled a whole game that they've presumably already spent millions on and when they stand to make many multiples on their investment with one of their most prestigious/fan favorite/money-printing relationships, very unlikely.
True, my bad, someone earlier in the thread was going on about the game potentially being cancelled, thought you were following from that convo.
I mean I can just leave this here from his Discord. It's obviously guesswork.
I'm not going to blame Jeff Grubb entirely. Insiders being treated either like gods or judas rub me the wrong way. Bamco can do whatever they want when they want to reveal their games. We've had high-profile fuck up's with games being shown too early, or with vertical slices that aren't realistic. I don't understand why people are angry at Bamco for just being careful and protecting From Software, especially when the pitchforks on social is so toxic nowadays, and during a pandemic.
