It's sad to watch businesses buy creators. Sometimes there are these cycles of leadership that aren't equipped to generate products, only unique enough to iterate on how the competition innovates.
I remember this one gif (it was about the PS Vita), I think it was around E3 before The Last of Us released.
But anyways, they had edited the The Last of Us gameplay trailer to where all the enemies were gamers asking Sony where the Vita games were, and Joel was Sony trying to dodge them.
Yeah we get a L4D game that looks mediocre and Starfield. Kinda sad people saying it’s going to be the best year ever for Xbox with only 3 meaningful exclusives. That bar is so low anymore for this company. I don’t understand why they have such difficulty making a good game.
Talking about Xbox's catalogue. Redfall kinda just looks like Grounded with vampires instead of bugs, or Hello Neighbor but instead of neighbors theres vampires.
At least it'll hopefully be a AAA experience. I'm enthusiastic but wouldnt be shocked if ends up as you say. They haven't really shown much gameplay imo for something that is "supposedly" 6 months or so out from release.
I've been Sony for years, but I have my cash put aside for an Xbox next year. The exclusive studios that Microsoft has acquired is a fantastic lineup.
I know the narrative is that exclusives are "bad." But the reality is that they force innovation and improvement. Microsoft needs up step up it's game to match Sony from the last few years, and pretty soon Sony will be scrabbling to keep up with Ms.
Competition between exclusives is what drives improvement. We will get better games because exclusives exist. The cost is that we might have to have 2 different consoles to experience all that goodness.
