XboxEra Community Hangout |OT9| Waiting for Developer_E3

Scummy marketing by MS is what people are saying, sigh.

It’s clearly two different pictures. I don’t think this is MS’s doing at all either.

Stop paying attention to those sort of people. Seriously.

If underperformance of Avengers led to the sale of Square West then I wonder what consequences Forspoken will have… It clearly will have some as they had big expectations.

This is not -Square will sell to Sony!- but again I am wondering what will happen. Avengers definitely had a bigger budget than Forspoken, but again, this one won’t just be “eh, write it off” like Babylon’s Fall.

probably sell or close luminous productions

I think you also have to remember the initial reveal of this game had people ranking this with the Playstation heavyweights. I remember many were saying this is what next gen would look like, but we’ve all seen the massive downgrade. I think both Square and Sony were banking on this game to be an early gen hit that people would use to benchmark the gen. I remember when it was called Project Athia every news outlet was calling it best looking game of the gen .

This is why I don’t jump on “Hype cycles”. I’ll gladly become interested in games that look interesting to me, but I’ll always wait for the finished product before I truly get excited. I’m too old and I’ve been down this road too many times. :smile:

Hope ME4 turns out great.

After finishing the trilogy for the first time over the past month, the IP has a special place in my heart now.

My post was more towards Blizzard in general, not one writer.

As much as we would like to i’m pretty sure the quote “you can’t fix stupid” applies here.

Not sure how someone can twist a way to lower power consumption and save people money into a negative but here we are

I actually saw an article about this I think a week or two ago and thought it was just a tabloid joke article
