Starfield and Redfall delayed to first half of 2023

@Shakez

The only worth noting this first half was Tunic.

Stalker 2 was planned for the first half as well before it was delayed. See: my point about forgetting.

That’s actually amazing.

Wolfenstein 3 but without saying there was 2 games before that you missed.

If it will come out it’s the PS users that will miss the last game, so there is no problem in naming it Wolfie 3.

I think only Avowed can replace Starfield for me, I’m disappointed and I won’t be making up excuses for Xbox, too many droughts for years and they don’t want to fix that by doing what Sony does with 3rd parties, for example KOTOR Remake, an original Xbox exclusive, yet Sony has moneyhatted that either to skip Xbox altogether or by a year, it’s so annoying how comfortable Xbox is after all these years.

I’m talking as someone that went through the entire Xbox One generation so I’m not even being hyperbolic.

I think it is just just harder for Xbox to secure those deals compared to Sony due to their marketshare deficit - combined with the fact that they’d presumably also be paying for the game to launch simultaneously on Game Pass.

I get what you’re saying though, I do. I very much was annoyed at the KotOR deal - made the post here and everything (cringe, ugh).

@Xboxer_China

That is exactly what I am wondering. Because the announcement really gives me an ironic feeling, considering their big boss Phil、co founder and Greenberg the marketing manager were sending some positive tweets about Bethesda’ s work several days ago.

I’m guessing they decided on the delay at that meeting.

@Shakez

I’m tired of “just wait for this or that” to make my opinion, I’ve seen enough really.

The delay is great for the games, but they need to be active in solving the content problem this year, where are the BIG releases for gamepass?

You may be tired of that, but it doesn’t change the fact that the showcase is made for that. You all have a right to be disappointed, I am too, but we should get a better idea still of what’s coming next month.

The game was delayed man, why would I remember it for the first-half launches of the year?

The original point was about “xbox not doing third party deals” which is untrue.

After the news today Microsoft needs to secure something big. Ubisoft’s Avatar would be an example.

@Paxton

They were delayed lol, what you’re talking about, I think Ghostwire was essentially delayed for a year, wasn’t Deathloop meant to be a PS5 launch title or still at the remaning weeks of 2020?

Yes and yes. Both were delayed for almost a year.

Here ya’ll go with unrealistic expectations. Also, that game might not even be releasing this year.

And they should do more since many of their games are being delayed

Okay then Microsoft should do nothing does that sound better?

@Ruthwik_Rao

They tried calling it Wolf3nstein and saw internal focus groups cringe so bad the game got cancelled

Ruthwik to the rescue with some much needed comic relief in these dark ass times.

Not that dark, I’m being dramatic, lol.

Where ya been man?

@Failwood

Wolfenstein 3 hopium

You will get your first person Indiana Jones first in 2028 and then maybe…maybe Wolfie 3 happens.

Serious question: Would people actually prefer the bad news like this to be announced at the showcase or before it? I prefer the latter.

@Shakez

And this brings us to the point that you can’t “react” to delays with third party exclusive deals halfway into the year lmao.

Before because I just know that people would only focus on the release date if they announced it at the show, even if the showing was stellar.

That’s what Gamepass is for, to release BIG games in the meantime, even if they aren’t day one.

It’s more like they really can’t do much about it halfway into the freaking year lmao.
