STICK3Rboy Posted May 12, 2020 Report Share Posted May 12, 2020 Yup. It looks brilliant! Reminds me a bit of Ruiner, which was a great game too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted May 29, 2020 Report Share Posted May 29, 2020 1:20 Nothing like "Diablo meets Cyberpunk". It's more like Ruiner game. Perfect GamePass title. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This does not look like anything the current Xbox One X cannot handle. Also, a game like this is for a specific group of people, not everybody will enjoy a game like this. MS should announce a money-making title, an action RPG-esque open world game with characters swinging swords and stuff. Thats gonna get everybody talking.

(But thats just my opinion) Their studios are already working on unnounced rpgs Inexile Obsidian (not talking about the outer world which is also in development) Playground is working on fable These are the 4 RPGs already being worked on and all are AAA according to job listings. You can expect a heavy focus on this genre nextgen Edited May 29, 2020 by triggr happy ss Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's hard to trust MS's "Working On" after seeing what happened to Scalebound, Crackdown and Fable (There was supposed to be a Fable game this gen). Obsidian is the only one that seems competent in the lot. But we need concrete trailers and proper gameplay. Games like the one MS/Obsidian showed (Inspired by Honey I Shrunk the Kids) will not do.

IF you read my post, I said "MS should announce" Get some gameplay trailers rolling. When Horizon Zero Dawn was announced at E3 for the first time, I lost my brain when I saw the trailer for it. Big beautiful open world game? Yes please. I didn't even own a PS4 at that point, and I was hyped. Also the same year a new Spiderman and Days Gone was announced, with a reveal trailer. As far as I can see, the final product in all 3 cases was pretty good. The trailers get people talking. Maybe its because I've never been on the Xbox side. But they should have at least one of those titles as a launch game imo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But yeah, MS should've showed AAA first-party titles first. But MS being MS thought it was a good idea to hype up the first look at next-gen and then show cross-gen indie-like games I mean, I did like quite a few of those games (including this one). But these are not games that are gonna get people talking and sell consoles. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not spending 500$ to buy a console so that I can play 1$ Gamepass titles and indie games. I'm not hating on either. I dont get much time, so what I do get I'd like to put into big name AAA titles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
North Posted May 29, 2020 Report Share Posted May 29, 2020 To be fair, Sony isn't showing me much either. The only thing they have going is that most PS4 games are gonna be backwards compatible, but it doesn't give a PS4 owner much of a reason to pick them either. Probably better off dumping my cash into a Switch and spend my hours in Zelda and Xenoblade, than buying a next gen console Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In 1 or 2 months all games coming to each console will be clear. Ms still has a hardware event rumoured for June 10th. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it's pretty clear now from the reaction that their event got that their strategy with it failed. And it's not hard to see why. People want to be blown away when they see something "next-gen". 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
