"Windows phone" oh shut up Tom! Not even close to the same and this game is licensed shovelware. Can't stand these mongerers like Tom Warren and Jez. Even their profile pic tells you the type of person they are.
I'll probably stick with the higher resolution at 30fps given this game's pace being much slower, 60fps is not really needed. I like soaking in the gorgeous visuals. But yes, always good to have more options.
To be fair though, has Todd Howard every really missed on his projects? Even Fallout 76 (which he wasn't as involved in), managed to salvage itself over time. And this game is his baby, that he's been working on for a very, very long time. I think he will deliver on it.
Lol heck no! It's a total ripoff! How on earth could you have it cost more than Game Pass? Yves is proving to be incredibly inept at his job, Ubi just keeps taking Ls.
@themightyant However, you are comparing a massive 3D open world game to a 2D game. It's just amazing how often games are delayed, and delayed, and delayed, and delayed these days. Devs need to do a better job of knowing where they are at and quit making empty promises. They enjoyed using "COVID delay" as an excuse, but that doesn't fly anymore. I guess I'm just tired of that state of games in general right now. I'd rather not know about a game until it will be released within a year.
@themightyant You can't deny though that the number of delays it has had is very unique however. You sound like their PR rep (or a burner account for them) the way you are responding to people about it and that you know all the devs names.
Sheesh, I can't say I've ever seen a 2D game stuck in development hell for this long. This is ridiculous. I mean I loved the first game, and I'll play this if it ever comes out. But good grief lol!
@S1ayeR74
S1ayeR74 9:06am ...60 to 70% global market owned by Microsoft, and they wanted to buy ActiBlizz.
Trmn8r 11:30am
@S1ayeR74 You are confusing your global market with your cloud market. Fail
S1ayeR74 11:47am
@Trmn8r Well you fail as the CMA stated 'global market' in its report. And I seriously doubt you work for the CMA.
Trmn8r50m ago
@S1ayeR74 The CMA said 70% of CLOUD MARKET SHARE
I've literally said CLOUD the entire time. You are the one saying just GLOBAL MARKET. There is a BIG difference between cloud market and overall gaming market. If you meant cloud when you misspoke, you had like 4 chances to clarify. But you didn't because you thought it was overall market then or are just too proud to admit a clear mistake. Now you are gaslighting after proving yourself wrong. Yes, I am referring to "Global Cloud Market" when I say "Cloud Market", as if that clarification is needed. But saying Global Market =/= Global Cloud Market, especially when you argue against me calling it Cloud Market without ever saying Global Cloud Market yourself. I can't English it any harder than that.
@S1ayeR74 The CMA said 70% of CLOUD MARKET SHARE. How can you seriously think that Xbox has 70% of the general market share? You can't honestly tell me that Xbox is winning the console war with 70% of market share. Please, tell me you believe that honestly. "I believe that Xbox is winning the console war right now with 70% of the gaming market." Please say it so I can laugh at it.
@Kevw2006 Well, if those people do exist, they probably shouldn't be trusted to handle a game console, much less, plug it into a power outlet properly.
@S1ayeR74 Lol you think Xbox owns 70% of the global gaming market? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAA I guess Xbox is totally dominating the console war. That's news to me ROFL!!!!
@S1ayeR74 You are confusing your global market with your cloud market. Fail
@Moonglow You can't reason with these disingenuous people who just make things up.
@PsBoxSwitchOwner I think most readers are intelligent enough to know that. Like 0.0% of people who read this will think it's only on Game Pass and not available retail.
@Kevw2006 Except what you say hasn't been the case with the devs Microsoft has bought. They are almost all churning out new IPs, including Bethesda. Sony all but owns Square at this point.
@StrawberryWave You called out my intentional example of a false equivalency to prove a false equivalency. Take some time to think about that while you're playing Kena.
@ShadowofTwilight30 So threatened by the 3rd place console are we? Companies are allowed to sell to whatever country they want. If a country blocks their ability to attempt a closer competition parity, they have every right to respond accordingly. They won't, too much money to be had. But they'd be totally justified if they did. But no worry that Sony dominates the market, just that Xbox might get closer to poor Sony.
@Sam_TSM Workers are affected by this not going through too. You unaware of all the problems Activision has had with their employees lately? We were talking about the hypothetical of if UK wants to block Xbox's ability to compete, Microsoft isn't required to sell to UK. Fair is fair.
@StrawberryWave Lol, how much money is in the cloud market vs the general gaming market. Great false equivalency. Xbox and Nintendo chooses to not participate in the VR market, guess we better reverse Sony's purchase of Insomniac then...
@S1ayeR74 Phil isn't an attorney. If anything, Microsoft cans their attorneys for failing to land the deal in court.
And those 10 year deals mean nothing if Microsoft doesn't own CoD. What are you talking about HQ being worried about those deals?
@themightyant And Sony, (whom has cloud tech, but willfully) refuses to join the cloud market, and also has the general gaming market share of top developers isn't capable of making a competitor for CoD in 10 years? It's just such a weak argument.
