Are you really saying that Compulsion was “Buy 4 get 1 free?” It was their “Free Studio Acqusition” by filling out their punchcard?

When you put it like that possibly (to me). Anyway Im excited to see what they make.

@Jeans

Oh nice ! It was ~72Gb (with addons) before the update.

The game now weighs in at 66.66 GB.

I SWEAR this is not a joke!

I loved Doom Eternal but I do feel like its a mission too long. That final level had me just begging for it to end.

The two last bosses are absolutely terrible. I really couldn’t believe what I was playing when fighting the final boss. So bad.

Also since Doom is now a Microsoft IP, id an Xbox studio, and the Doom Next-Gen upgrade is out today, I can finally shitpost this:

I admit that i was a little disappointed with We Happy Few… the game has several problems, many of them maybe caused by the low budget of the game. hopefully now, since money is no longer an issue, they deliver a better game. We Happy Few still has a lot of potential . although they apparently are working on new IP.

So,

As I look over the internet today, and I see that acquistion(s) by Sony, and we start comparing this studio to that studio and so forth, my mind keeps coming back to one studio announced in 2018:

Compulsion.

Clearly, the said or pitched SOMETHING to Xbox to make them want to acquire them. This clearly wasn’t a “hey we have 50 million left over, how about those WHF guys?”

Phil has talked about them being the dark horse for YEARS now.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING COMPULSION?! WHAT ARE YOU WORKING ON!?

Maybe Phil bought it on impulsion…

Don’t forget the recent hot take that id should make the next Quake 3rd person because Xbox has too many FPS games.

About the MachineGames Wolfenstein titles, I loved all of them (The Old Blood is excellent as well and often overlooked!) except Youngblood. Great first person shooters with very good gameplay (dat lean though), awesome story and very likable and fun characters. I guess I am lucky that minuscule technical problems don’t ever stop me from enjoying great videogames.

Vomiting is not miniscule to me… The thing is I really like the game, everything you mention is great. The story, setting, action, stealthing - all superb. It’s some very weird design choices though, it’s like the disgusting camera shake in Outriders that noone understood why the devs had there, thankfully they fixed that.

I’m going to give it another try, prepared this time. Bought fresh ginger, got some pills and will try to power through it.

It’s still lame to have no settings or options for accessability.

[ElPutoXD]

Compulsion is legit a future GOTY maker. The story, script, art direction, music and setting of We Happy Few were all excellent. It’s the gameplay and tech aspects they need to nail but Microsoft bought them because Sony had this “We make artistic games with deeper themes” aura and Microsoft wants that too.

DOOM Eternal: Xbox Series X Trailer - Available Now

@beastmode10

… for an update, pointing to the mini-replica of the Ark of the Covenant from Raiders of the Lost Ark taking pride of place on a display shelf behind him in his home office. "I think I originally pitched [to George] Lucas in 2009 and I’ve been trying to find a way to make that [since]. And I think the work Machine Games have done, they’re just phenomenal developers and storytellers. And when I started talking to them about it, it was a good fit. And we got to the opportunity to talk to Lucas and Disney about it and they were super excited. "I really like Indiana Jones but never thought I’d have the opportunity to make a game. And you’ll hear about more of that in the future. But the team at Machine Games are the best team in the world to pull this game off and they’re doing a phenomenal job.”

Great stuff! And if it wasn’t clear already that TES VI is quite far away, this makes it clear again. I guess it will also depend on what happens after Starfield. Will the majority of the team work on expansions and when that’s done concentrate on TES VI, or will a smaller team make expansions so a larger team can start working on TES VI?

There was a documentary regarding Compulsion, and apparently their unique taste of creativity and ability to create procedural worlds are impressive.

No this is an official Bethesda trailer, even on their national channels they are running with it even in PS lands.

Man if Compulsion making a Jack the Ripper themed game is true…

(Obviously you would be investigating Jack the Ripper, not playing as him)
