Does anybody remember when some Xbox exec said they would have a new IP that would "Blow your mind" a few weeks ago? What exactly was it? I don't know about you, but when I hear "Mindblowing new IP" I can't help but expect something on the level of Breath of the Wild or God of War (but a new IP). So what was it? I'm left scratching my head on this one after their lackluster E3 conference.
@GameCollector84 I'd guess Redfall (the showcase closer). The only Xbox Game Studios new IPs present were Starfield, Contraband and Redfall but Starfield was a known entity prior to the Showcase and Contraband trailer pretty much showed no info at all.
So was Redfall mindblowing then? It would be nice if this site would put up a poll. IMO that random Xbox exec was blowing smoke, and overselling. Had he said "We have a great new IP" or "We have an amazing new IP" that would have been fine. Saying "Mindblowing" makes it sound like they think they have the greatest game since the original Halo on their hands. Sorry, but it all just comes off as overconfidence on their part.
@GameCollector84 To me, I have no interest in it but there's not much I was interested in for Xbox Showcase in general. Microsoft are infamous for overhyping stuff anyway.
I guess it was supposed to be Redfall? I didn't really find the trailer mindblowing at all though. It certainly didn't really look as interesting as Deathloop to me
