Love to see it

IMO if the score is that “low” it will because of some folks letting their personal feelings about the genre affect their review and not because of the quality of the game. Or it will simply be the Xbox exclusivity penalty.

80 is not a low score.

Nah I just think around that number is the the ceiling for survival games on average lol, 80 is really not low but I understand what you mean by that. It’s just a prediction though, I like to make one for every XGS game.

Would love seeing Groundeds and Pentiments from most Xbox studios. 10-20 people teams, small and focused and experimental projects. This is what Game Pass uniquely allows IMO.

I think the permadeath of characters in SoD2 is a great idea, it’s just not implemented very well
Between characters having zero personality and all characters being viable outside of some exclusive skills, you’re never given any reason to care about any of them
If characters were much more varied in what they can do it would matter more but every single character can use guns/melee/drive well enough so if you lose one you always have endless backups that can do those same things
Losing characters in the game should feel devastating and make you feel “oh shit, wtf how am I going to continue without this character” instead of “meh, il use this one now”

The fact that we have no info on what the coalition is cooking up is making me suspicious. Maybe they are doing a game from a big ip and that’s why nothing has leaked.
All I know it will probably look good.
I just want Gears 6

I hope they have at least 3 games in development:
- Geare 6
- New or different IP / AAA
- Small and experiential project

I think they only have gears 6 and a new ip. Since they are also helping out a lot of other studios using the unreal engine.
Obsidian keep going at astounding rates.

What I imagine 3 games is for the whole generation, so along their UE support, having Gears 6 (along its live service MP), new IP/AAA, and a small project, doesn’t seem unrealistic.

They aren’t big enough to work on that many things at once. Gears 6 and the small new IP are all we know about. They are not a giant studio and they assist on other XGS projects. It’s honestly amazing they were able to deliver Gears UE, Gears 4 and Gears 5 within a 4 year period of each other.
Bad wording on my part, I was thinking the 3 games for the whole generation, and what I meant isn’t that all would be in active development at once, but rather they are all planned and some are in conception or pre-production etc. I basically believe most AAA devs already have laid out internally what they will likely put out by in next 5-7 years lol
Oh okay, yeah, that’s more reasonable. I think it depends on A.) what their plans for Gears 6 are and whether it’s ending the story or continuing it, and if it’s “Gears 6” or a spiritual reboot like Halo Infinite, and B.) what the new IP is and whether it’s something that can be expanded upon.
Hot take but I just want The Coalition to crank out new Gaers games every 2.5 years. I absolutely love that franchise. Cant get enough
