Gears Discussion Thread: What should the future of the series be?

Well it isn’t a war, it’s just a topic to discuss how the series can evolve and go forward, there are worse things indeed, doesn’t mean we can’t discuss less worrying matters.

I’d gladly discuss something like the 3rd party moneyhatting Sony does and how Xbox could counter it, for example. If there’s a thread I’ll share my opinion on it.

Some people just need to learn how to take opposing opinions, and learn to disagree without taking offense.

Let em make 6, we can have these discussions again in 3 years and see who was right then lol.

Anyone excited about what bigger budgets and fewer constraints does for new XGS studios like Compulsion and Ninja Theory needs to stfu about Gears until The Coalition is given the chance to do Gears with the same.

That is another dire situation, IDK where we can talk about it because it’s very controversial here, lol.

Haha yup, we’ll see haha

But those teams never lacked resources or time like Gears. If Coalition was pumping out Gears frequently last gen is cause they felt they could do it and xbox was fine with it unlike recently acquired teams that came with resource constraints.

Its been 9 games for Gears and its been the same series always. Im not hopeful of anything other than getting a good game to finish the trilogy.

And that hurts these discussions, some people just want to talk about some stuff, some others can’t bear to see it.

Just let the people discuss whatever…

The Coalition, Playground, and Turn 10 carried Xbox One on their back, releasing regularly on 2-3 year release cycles. They did so because they had to, and the games were impacted as a result.

That topic is not liked by influential people here, that’s the catch. XD

Playground created a behemoth of a series with Horizon and we see the effects today with the gigantic release and hype around the 5th game.

Turn 10 is a machine that helps everyone, makes forza engine and dropped a handful of Motorsport games.

What exactly impacted them? Or Gears for the matter. Im not buying this argument.

At least if there is a thread it is less likely to spill into every other thread lol.

All of the games are relatively same-y. Forza Horizon 5 is lucky that people haven’t gotten tired of the formula yet.

I read somewhere that Forza Motorsport is supposed to have more updates than 4-7 combined.

If another one heinous moneyhat would come out of TGA, I’d open one, because 6 big games moneyhatted within 1 year of a new gen without a proper counterfire is bad (5 already is), there is no but, even if some people would like to hide it under the carpet.

Oh he is being serious alright. Same with the Gears killed TLOU and Uncharted.

This is hilarious. Im just repeating what you’re writing but substituting gears with The Last of Us. I’m holding up a mirror bro.

Uncharted is a dead IP and got absolutely smoked by Gears. So smoked that Uncharted got discontinued.

There’s a reason it’s dead. I must admit I did laugh I saw a PlayStation ad the other day that ended with “see Uncharted in theatres now” and they used artwork of Drake and Chloe…but the artwork was from Uncharted 2…from 2009. Like the IP is so forgotten they don’t even have artwork less than a decade old. Lol!!!

No one’s buying Naughty Dog games it seems. If they were they’d be working on a new game instead of remasters.

We live in a world where Spider-Man got outsold by a pirate game by Rare with a 69 metascore.

Of course a 17 hour game with no replay value wasn’t going to beat the game that felled Fortnite.

I think it was a week. But keep moving them goal posts, I doubt tlou2 even beat Trove.

Trove might be giving it too much credit. Brb…Gang Beasts. Gang Beasts is a better pick.

I’m playing a niche mode and getting team mates between load screens. Horde and multiplayer are even more packed. I thought it would fall off when the last operation ended, but if anything it’s more popular.

Gameplay always wins I guess.
