@Juanalf Both Microsoft and Sony (Sony more) have had publicly made exclusivity deals that allowed for Nintendo as both didn't see them as a direct competitor. But nice play
@Coletrain As if its really that expensive to port a PC game to Xbox that you are already porting on PS and Switch 2. No, this sounds like another closet Sony paid exclusivity deal.
I you want better market conditions, launch games when they are in a completed state and on all platforms so you can actually market it. You cut out your own feet from under you when you leave your game in early access on PC exclusively for over a year.
Man, this is freaking sucks! Was looking forward to this one. Xbox's touted "hands off" approach to their devs is backfiring. Devs need deadlines and a kick in the pants sometimes when they are stuck in development hell. It's time to ratchet down on these devs that are taking too long to make games. Perfect Dark was announced in 2020 for Pete's sake!
Series S always getting crapped on, yet this will be ported to Switch 2, which will be even harder. 30fps is totally fine for a slower paced melee game like this anyways. Bet they do hit 60fps tho.
I think the bigger problem is that they launched their game at a time with a plethora of better options released. Lots of people still playing heavier hitters like Clair Obscur, Oblivion, Doom etc...
I feel bad that this game got undercut by Oblivion remaster, but I plan on playing this first. Besides, the remaster sounds like it needs some patches as expected.
@Valhura Lol, as if I said anywhere that you needed my permission. Disagreeing with you isn't restricting your speech. But nice victim play there... I don't think everything sucks like you seem to so I'm sharing my opinion too. If you want to buy a console and get a new game once every 3 years for it, you do you.
Yves is such a moron, its amazing he hasnt been fired yet. Ubisoft has fallen so far from what it once was. Just reskinned, open world slop every year now.
@Llamageddon I mean the clip speaks for itself. Not like I didn't send something that isn't a problem. Would a 3-minute clip of the same problem make it more warranted to you? But sure you have no dog in this fight right...
@Llamageddon That's the best conclusion you could come up with? Not like Ubisoft is doing well right now if they are selling off parts to Tencent. But yeah, I'm sure it's just "haters watching youtube shorts" and not their games being the problem...
I have a feeling I will be returning to this game in the future and actually enjoying it. I think the anticipation (mine included) for this was just way too high and we were sold a lot more than what we got. But I think on its own merit, it'll end up being a good game to those who play it after the outrage finally settles and people revisit it.

Re: No Rest For The Wicked May Skip Xbox 'For The Time Being' Due To 'Current Market Conditions'
@Bigcoffinhunter Lol Lionhead? Now that's a long callback. Moon wasn't owned by Xbox but they did give them their big publishing break.
Re: Battlefield 6 Price & Release Date Leak Ahead Of 2025 Xbox Launch
@Romans12 I hear ya there. to jump from $60 straight to $80 is a terrible move. I can see the $70 jump for the time being, as much as it sucks too.
Re: Battlefield 6 Price & Release Date Leak Ahead Of 2025 Xbox Launch
@Romans12 It said $70

Re: No Rest For The Wicked May Skip Xbox 'For The Time Being' Due To 'Current Market Conditions'
Man Moon sure hates the company that gave them their big break... Like "thanks for trusting us, now screw you Xbox!"
Re: Report: Activision Blizzard's King Team Sees Axed Job Roles 'Replaced' By AI

Re: Halo Fan Game To Release On Xbox After Microsoft & Halo Studios Give Approval
Oh yay a flash game... This is free right?
Re: Xbox Emphasises That Its Next-Gen Devices 'Aren't Locked To A Single Store'
So, it'll be a PC then. I actually think it's the best direction for them considering they are no longer making anything exclusive anymore.
Re: The Witcher 4 Will Be 'Extremely Challenging' To Run At 60FPS On Xbox Series S
Series S always getting crapped on, yet this will be ported to Switch 2, which will be even harder. 30fps is totally fine for a slower paced melee game like this anyways. Bet they do hit 60fps tho.
Re: ROG Xbox Ally Gets Price & Release Date Info In 'Exclusive' Report
@Romans12 They said may be $100 less in US. So it would be about the same in € as it is in $

Re: Xbox Is Raising The Price Of Consoles, Games And Accessories
Nintendo set the precedent with Switch 2 and the rest followed suit. Everyone was just waiting for one of the big companies to do it.
Re: Xbox's Latest Shadow Drop Was A Problem For Us, Says Indie Publisher
Yet Clair Obscur is selling like bonkers. The cream always rises to the top. Nobody is entitled to their own special day to sell their game.

@Valhura Shovelware like Call of Duty, Indiana Jones, South of Midnight and Expedition 33? You rehearse that comment ahead of time in Pushsquare?

Re: Six Games Are Confirmed For Xbox Game Pass In April 2025 So Far
