XboxEra Community Hangout |OT9| Waiting for Developer_E3

Surprised they dragged it this far already tbh. And I had a bit of fun with it on Game Pass. It really should have just been a single player Kamala Khan game.

Road bumps are normal in game development. I was expecting PD for 2025 anyway.

Yeah I’m just tired about hearing xbox studios having them

But im hoping this is the end of announcing games that aren’t within a year or 2 of release

Same. I’m expecting PD around 2024/2025. VCG reported on a soft reboot when CD joined the fray in 2021 and we know that TI wasn’t a studio founded to make PD from the very start, so we can assume they had a slow start AFAIK they had like 35 employees in late 2019 before scaling up development in 2020.

Generally I agree, but new studios and teams kind of need to advertise the games they are going to make for recruitment purposes.

If this is true, then there needs to be some re-evaluation of Microsoft gaming studio from top to bottom becuase output shouldn’t be this messy.

That anime meme with “Not this shit again” should come back to life at this rate…

Yeah well you’re not generally going to hear about Sony studios having bumps for three reasons - this is an xbox site, creators doom monger over everything xbox does/does not do, and “leakers” can leak “oh X has had a few development issues” and be 100% bang on the money.

Empty vessels make the loudest sounds.

Think the biggest issue is the early announcements of these games. If the games don’t have a face people are unlikely to care about it and journo’s are unlikely to look into it unless there are a lot of lay-offs or rumours of cancellation like what happened with SSM before they announced the new Godow back in 2014-15 or something.

Flipside, if they don’t announce these games, it’s “Xbox clearly has no games”. They’re screwed either way.

I think bad Xbox news does the best business because Sony Fanboys immediately click and bust out the baby lotion, while Xbox fans immediately click to see what else they can feel miserable about. :smile:

This site is pretty good about it. I know about a certain other Xbox community thread that is like a negativity dark hole, every bit of good news there gets consumed by the dark hole and just adds to the state of constant misery there.

LOL someone leaked classified military documents in a milsim again.

Again? Whoa…

Yeah, what’s it with milsim nerds and leaking classified documents in arguments about vehicle/weapon specs.

Rand is making great points on on xbox two

No, there doesn’t, even if this is true.

Why are people so quick to take the word of “literally who?” “Leakers” from OtherEra? Has nobody learned anything from the last few times?

I just hope that PD is not a cinematic generic, but something really like Hitman with constant updates.

True and it can be said all games hit roadblocks.
