Phil really dropped the ball on such great new IPs. Scalebound was his first big fail, then no sequel to Lost Odyssey, no sequel to Blue Dragon, then no sequel to Ryse and no sequel to Sunset Overdrive.
I am continuing to play New World. I am also playing Mass Effect Andromeda for the first time. When I saw the art style I was so confused. Reminds me of Fortnite or a 3D CGI-animated Star Wars series.
