@TheColbertinator lets see how many of those are semi realistic big open world games that where not released over 5+ years ago. Yeah basically Rise of the Ronin and Ghost of Tsushima left on the list...wow, big list :D
Never before was the main character or one of the characters been some real person from history. Also they always where native to the country where the games where set except this and black flag (welsh pirate in carribean, most pirates where european). They even had said in interviews that they felt that people could not get into the Japanese culture if both characters where Japanese. Funny how it was not a problem on other AC's.
Amy Hennig was the carrying force of making stories in the studio. When she left, he did what...last of us 2 by himself which people hated due to story issues. I think he never had a proper game story in him to begin with.
No one had issues of appearance or sexualization with Bayonetta 1-3, now couple years back this is unacceptable. oh the horror. Think of the children, the 18+ children. Traumatized beyond repair.
Oh no! Anyway, sold 😁 It's rare to get DMC style games anymore.
It's not finished yet doofus. I played Valheim 70h in couple weeks and been visiting it couple times after that. There has been lot of changes, but I'm waiting for the completion so I would have proper amount of new biomes to explore. I would imagine a lot of ppl are doing the same with this game.
Firstly half of those started development before gamepass was a thing and secondly they are backed by MS who has more money than anyone. On a third party standpoint the view is totally different to first party MS studios. Your argument is invalid.
Legacy characters sell better :)
The MP portion was decent so that's why reviews or word of mouth did not affect sales that much. it's still mostly MP game. Happy that The Finals came now, way more fun than the MW3 beta I tested.
Wow what a shitty changes, so he wants to play ADHD COD? TTK is fine, not everything need to be exactly like COD in TTK. Having different small or medium actually matter in TTK on this. Faster respawn means more hectic gameplay and chaos, even now there is ALWAYS something happening on the objective. If you stay alive and revive your teammates, you have zero down time when doing that and defending. When I am dead I am either waiting for revive or checking what is happening on the objective an...
@Ironmike I find this way more enjoyable than latest cods, apex or bf2042. Played 20h on open beta and way more now and still not feeling bored at all.
It's more fun than MW3 or Apex
Teardown, Battlefield bad company/3 and Red faction guerrilla says "hi". It's amazing that we used to have games where you actually can destroy everything, nowadays everything is so static. This has been the better FPS that I have seen since original MW and BF3. The game does not need 120 players or fast paced slide bunny hopping to be good and entertaining.
Just check the digital foundry stuff to demolish your armchair dev criticism: https://www.youtube.com/wat...
Also for those sheeps...you need to stay BEHIND them. Not on the side so that some of them get behind you and left out. If this was too slow for your ADHD brain or too hard idk what to tell you.
@Obscure_Observer like you said multiple times XS is not hindering development of games
Larian had to:
- delay the game on Xbox
- get special permission from Xbox to drop the parity to loose coop on the XS
- do extra 3-4 months work on the XS to make it work properly
I think that is very indicative that XS is hindering development. Also even if there was a PS4 or Switch or X0 version coming out, optimizations learned from there ...
Never a popular but not a great game got an nomination? are you shitting me :D Also to the part what is Hogwarts doing that something has not done before, making an actually good license open world game based on Harry Potter. It's not winner material, but nomination at least in some categories was in order. We all know it's not getting any nominations due to JK Rowling, who had no part in the game making.
"Xbox Series S didn´t hold the Xbox Series X back on a true current gen game and that´s nothing but a fact!"
Then why did Thomas Puha from Remedy said in an interview that the Series S is a struggle to get to work properly. Yes it's not ruining the game or not be able to run on the S, but it really takes hard work to get it running due to it's lower memory and GPU power. Saying it's not an issue is just plain wrong. it's no wonder when me...
MGS1 in 30fps too. Though someone on PC got them running in 4K in the first day and made a mod :)
So people who use cheating devices in console FPS games fucked around and everybody found out the outcome, great job guys.
I haven't seen any marketing for this game. Zero, none, zit. Like MS ftw is this?
