Xbox Game Studios |OT9| How many games would a game studio make if a game studio could make games?

Even disregarding any contracts and deals, this sort of thing just reflects poorly for future job prospects.

I’m being serious, the dude “sounded” soulless working there. Almost nothing good came from his mouth talking about his work there…

Well today was an interesting day lol

Yes, in combat design. He was appearing frequently in the game interviews and updates.

Personally, I don’t think a sequel needs him anymore, cause the 2013 reboot is enough to inspire any team wants to work on the IP.

So iD must be working on doom then I guess

So does that mean they caught him in a lie?

Nah jason confirmed he is who he says he is. Dude broke nda probably got contacted by someone.

Was all his posts also deleted related to the questionable content? If the posts weren’t deleted, then I doubt they were / othersite was contacted by Legal / Cease & Desist. I’ve had to deal with that on some of the sites I admin over the years. Removal of the posts is always part of their conditions.

I said elsewhere I was doubtful they were real because a genuine insider wouldn’t say something that makes them so easy to track down. I was wrong, it seems, but this would be why most don’t.

His history is completely gone. The other users said they never seen anything like it in terms of mass deletion

Not necessarily. I’m still hopeful and I think it makes most sense to make Quake next. However, more DOOM is never bad. The optimal case scenario is they alternate between the two.

That’s not how this works. Not everybody can make fighting games. You absolutely you want a design director with James’ resume behind your western fighting game.

Awesome. I’m looking forward to this. I don’t know what it is about it exactly but It was finally a survival game that did it for me. I only stopped playing because of it being only an in-development preview. I wanted to play the complete version of it.

Regarding the Starfield leaker, it was an astoundingly stupid decision of theirs to discuss privileged and confidential project details on a public forum. NDA’s are literally a part of every professional industry and it’s on the employee to understand what the terms of the NDA are.

In my experience it’s always made abundantly clear that company information does not belong to the employee, regardless of their role on the project, it belongs to the company. To willfully discuss those details in a very public setting honestly doesn’t deserve leniency. This wasn’t a situation where they discussed these details in a private setting with friends or family. They did this to themselves.

As I said, dumbest insider in history.

Though I would have liked if someone asked him to what he could compare flight in starfield to other games. Like, if it resembles something like no man’s sky or elite dangerous or…

Probably didn’t help their case that they had either offered or confirmed they had previously sent Resetera mods footage of Starfield to verify their identity.

I got my ES6 info over a month ago

I mentioned it on the podcast and said I wasn’t sure about it which is why I wasn’t saying anything. Skullzi’s info looks very very very similar to what I had been given and I’m almost certain we don’t share a source.

So all I was saying was that I had heard similar.

As to the Remasters, all I got confirmed was their existence. Not who was making them

Imagine if they turned out to have leaked those Redfall screens too :skull:
