ADF story was always going to make it or break it, glad to see its worked out for them
I find the visual style kind of annoying but i’ll give it a go for sure
BigMacTonight:
Just a friendly reminder that Chris Bleszinski also approached MS to publish and finance his next, you know after he slagged off Xbox and xbox fans w hen he did an exclusive deal with Sony and lawbreakers, which went as well as you would imagine
If this is true, approaching and actually working with the studio are two different things and considering how things went last time xbox funded a platinum game, i really hope MS have enough sense to turn whatever this project is down
I don’t remember him slagging anyone off but I could be wrong
These are simple business decisions and one that he actually regretted but if xbox turned his game down it’s because they disliked his pitch, not because of some petty grudge

I have no idea why so many xbox fans were so down on As Dusk Falls.

We used to use the term ‘second party’ but most consider any game published by the platform holder as first party nowadays.

Platform holders consider any game they publish first party. Go argue with them.

Is not it the second party though?
To most it’s the same thing, people rarely use second party as a term

“second party” isn’t a thing.

Rather than that, I think some Xbox folks would prefer As Dusk Falls with Detroit level graphics.
Like second person camera?

To me, because it’s by ex-Quantic Dream (and it shows in the writing) + the visual comic style is off-putting to me.

It’s on Game Pass so I am open to try it

It’s published by Xbox Game Studios Publishing. Therefore, it is first party, just like Ori, Flight Sim etc.

Not interested in Dontnod but Telltale games were great
I wonder how much of the talent is there after the whole shitshow that happened with them and the publisher
The Wolf Among Us 2 was supposed to be coming to gamepass back in the day wasn’t it? I wonder if that’s still happening
Dontnod called Tell Me Why their “first” collaboration with Xbox, so I really do think one of their upcoming projects is with Xbox.
I could also see new Telltale getting The Wolf Among Us 2 or The Expanse on Game Pass day one, or at least a few months later.

i mean… it’s a “powerpoint presentations: the game”. As Dusk Falls must be cool. but idk. i think the “problem” is XGS Publishing that has been weird these last few years.
