Lol! It wasn't a question, just a (really) irrational fear. Dev news has been so quiet after it was shown at E3 2016 & 17 and then nothing. Like you said though, Sony isn't MS, and I do agree that we'll see Days Gone again this year. A release date might come out unexpectedly like Detroit.
That's why it's an opinion piece, my friend. It's not law, and that sentiment was "irrational", like I said. I'm more than excited for Days Gone. I simply feel like there should have been a little more news during this point in its development cycle.
