Shit...... You're right. I wonder.......is Depth's release date hidden somewhere in the in game documentation for the Ark? maybe during the epilogue?

I guess it was theorized that "Depth" was going to be a prequel, and it is nice that there are some callouts to the stars of the live-action vids.
It'd certainly be nice to watch to see how things began.

Yes, we believe it's a prequel because (film and game spoilers):

An argument over whether a companion film for a game about unreality is an elaborate hoax?

Not so much an argument as it is one individual taking something someone said out of context and then running.......................no........galloping with it.

I wonder if a mod could maybe split this thread into two, with the second thread starting with Skinnytie's first post, and with an appropriate title (e.g. "Depth ARG"). I don't think people realise the director has been teasing us with clues, because it's buried in a thread most people won't bother reading.

I really want this to be true ... Depth looked so amazing. It would be a real shame if it really turns out to be just a PR hoax.

I'm actually trying to do damage control on this, as no Developer on here used the word Hoax to describe the Depth film project...in fact, all Thomas Grip said was that Frictional had made no announcement, which is absolutely true.
He also did not deny it's Existence. And neither has Don Thacker, who posts as Skinnytie on here (and in this very thread). I'm presuming that's him anyways....sure looks like it based on the photo. Could be a replicant. Could be WAU screwing with us.
I have edited the wiki page for Depth to try and reflect this and list the film project Depth's status as "Unknown". Until someone of authority (or their android duplicate) says otherwise I consider Depth was / is a project with an unknown status.

I'm pretty sure this Depth is just an old/placeholder name for Soma, if you look in the _supersecret.rar you see the following files:
