XxEvil AshxX Posted May 12, 2022 Share Posted May 12, 2022 MS's first party output is turning into a long-running gag that just isn't funny anymore. Someone legit needs to tell Phil it's time to take off the belt. SOMETHING needs to get fuckin the wheels turning in their studios. Just seems there's a bunch of cats getting fat off that MS titty and not actually producing anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaethos Posted May 12, 2022 Share Posted May 12, 2022 Seeing as these were the only games MS had coming out this year, what exactly is the point of them even having an "E3" show this year if everything they have there is going to release after the show they'll have next year? If these two games are coming out first half of next year they'll probably push back anything they had originally planned for that time frame, meaning well over a year before anything else releases. For 2022 it's actually true that Xbox has no games. Maybe Forza Motorsport will release, maybe, but I don't care about sim racers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.Vic20 Posted May 12, 2022 Share Posted May 12, 2022 This is one of the down sides to a service like Gamepass. As long as the overall product remains a good proposition in the minds of gamers, then they will keep their subscriptions, and MS profits quarterly whether they have a major set of titles or not. Naturally this can't go on forever, but it does add to the reasons they won't feel the heat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Posted May 12, 2022 Share Posted May 12, 2022 Both games will be at the Microsoft showcase on the 12th. We will be able to see if the first half of 2023 is at all realistic. I assume Starfield will happen holiday 2023 Also Microsoft knows Kirby has wrapped up GOTY 2022 so might as well delay it until next year 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their first party studios are delivering, we got Deathloop in fall and then just got Ghostwire last month. It’s just having issues releasing games that aren’t exclusive for their competitor.

Projects that started afterwards have either been shrouded in mystery, been nothing more than a title on a screen, have seen multiple delays, or are just nebulous projects that we only kind of know about (Compulsion's mystery title). Microsoft stringing us along on nothing but promises, and this is coming from primarily an Xbox gamer. I'm starting to feel like I"m in high school again and the lead cheerleader keeps promising me second base every time I take her to the movies, but keeps ditching me once we get there.

I was just playin, I get the issue. MS has been all about “the first party games are coming!” for a long time. Last year was a good year in a way but yeah Psyconauts 2 was already in dev and multi platform, and then for the other big ones you are back to Halo/Forza as it has been since 360. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's entirely plausible they're poorly managed, but until demonstrated otherwise, I think it's safer to assume the game devs are already overworked Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just because they weren't exclusives doesn't mean they didn't put anything out. Delays obvioulsy suck, but I think everyone can agree that it's much better to delay games and get them right than push them out just to fill in gaps in a schedule.

BloodyHell Posted June 13, 2022 Share Posted June 13, 2022 I still think the gameplay looked choppy. I've seen others comment on it too. Game is incredibly beautiful, and im excited to play it, but I definitely believe the stories by Schreier and others, because Bethesda has disappointed me so many times. Graphically though, it is stunning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TwinIon Posted June 13, 2022 Share Posted June 13, 2022 The gunplay looks pretty poor. There was very little movement from either the player or the enemies. I'm interested in low/zero G combat, but far from convinced they can make it fun. The guns seem pretty standard, and overall it just looked bland.Graphically it was about what I would expect from it; good but not spectacular. The environmental detail looks excellent and the lighting engine is doing some work, but the faces and animation don't live up to the highest standards. The star system view looked really bad, but hopefully that's just a work in progress. Unfortunately the Bethesda jank still seems present. After playing Forbidden West, I don't know if I can go back to a big RPG where the camera just snaps to the face of everyone we talk to. There were some camera movement in dialog scenes, so hopefully there's more of that and less straight on camera shots. The two things that really blew me away were the base and ship customization and the sheer size of it. I can easily imagine spending a lot of time building my perfect ship (or fleet, if that's a thing). Having NMS like planets while also still having a bunch of hand crafted locations seems like an ideal setup. I just hope that they did spend enough time building out the cities and outposts and what not so that the core planets feel substantial and purposeful. I'm sure that 990 or so planets will be algorithmically generated blandness, and that's fine, as long as there is enough well crafted stuff to play in. I do hope that we get NMS style travel, while also having some kind of fast travel. The solar system view had you choosing a landing spot, so some kind of fast travel is obviously included. We didn't see ground to space travel, which I hope is included. It also seems like a modder's dream to have a huge game like this where things can be added. It'll be a largely blank canvas that we'll see expanded on for years (assuming it's any good). It really feels like they're leaning into the idea that they want this game to be another Skyrim, a game where people can spend 1000s of hours over a decade. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dexterryu Posted June 13, 2022 Share Posted June 13, 2022 Mixed on this. Positives: World graphics looked excellent. Ship customization looked really cool. Negatives Characters still have that Bethesda stiff robot-ness where they all like you're interacting with animatronics that talk at you. Combat looked really bland/weightless Not sure how I feel about the laser mining (Looks exactly like what I've gotten bored of in NMS).

Dre801 Posted June 13, 2022 Share Posted June 13, 2022 I'll play. I agree about the gunplay. In at least one shot, it didn't seem like there was any reaction when peppering a guy with bullets. Wouldn't even know anything was happening if the life bar wasn't being depleted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
