I mean, is it good for games to have more people play it rather than buy it? But I guess gamepass is more important than games sales for microsoft, I bet the $70 price is decided so more people subcribe to gamepass to play this game.
I don't have gamepass anymore but I still want to buy this game, not at full price though. $60 games make me buy games at launch but $70 games just make me wait for a discount π
I just watched some streamer play about 1 hours in the game, it seems a really good game, I think I'll play his either on switch 2 later when I get it or on ps5 now.
The game is just too expensive, clair obscur priced $30 in my country steam store, oblivion remastered $42, doom the dark ages is $60. Clair obscur is about 30-40 hours game, oblivion is 80+ hours game, doom the dark ages take about 15 hours to finish. It's just not worth it for me to buy doom at full price, maybe later when it's discounted.
@nomither6 I remember playing sf2 alpha until my left thumb red and hard back then on psone, psone dpad is great but hard lol. Street fighter 3 2D graphics are amazing but the new characters kind of suck, waay worse than iconic ryu, ken, honda, chun-li, blanka, etc.
At this point it's not good for independent gaming devs to partner up with sony since they seems always to f up something. From "the uncensored worldwide" claim to "actually the game will be censored" launch, to this.
I remember helldivers 2 also have sony f up their games by suddenly want mandatory psn login and not selling the game to country that didn't have psn (although the game didn't need psn login now).
I stop paying psplus (essential) when the price goes from usually discounted to $40 (on cdkey) to now $80 with no discount
I just want cloud saves and discount for psn games, I already have a lot of backlog, I don't want to spend $80 for "free" games that I never finished. Nintendo subs is way better and cheaper, $20 (per year) with a couple of classic games, or about $20 per year with the subs plus family plan.
If you can beat them, join them. Can't wait for concord 2, the new fairgames game (where the studio boss already quit), and many more. Heck, forget concord 2, I can't wait for concord 3
This game lack ambition. You can't just make fighting game with the same price as street fighter 6 but with worse quality, sf6 has ambition with the 3D city environment and way better graphics. I'm not saying fatal fury need 3D city, but give us the reason to spend the same amount of money as sf6, tekken 8, and mk1.
I think they should start with better graphics and art style first, make it at least as good as sf6 or tekken 8, the ff cotw graphical style just isn't working with gamers. Or maybe just make it 3D like tekken 8.
Just cancel the game and sack the studio, nobody want this but sony executives that want live service games, it's cheaper than having another concord π
Suure, yeah that's the reason. How many millions does this game sells again? Clair obscur sold 2 millions, the last things I heard ac shadow have 3 millions player. I don't think that's "such a hit".
@Flaming_Kaiser I heard that genshin impact make more money than the whole playstation division which is insane, I still think making gatcha games in japan is still cheaper than making hero shooter in usa.
The graphics and animation is kind of insane, this is the kind of games that playstation has to make if they want live service games for their audience, not unappealing hero shooter like concord, but sort of single player mmo-lite like this since most people bought ps console for single player games.
Well, they bought the developers so, yeah. I didn't know about forza developers though, if they're microsoft studio from the beginning or just being bought when their games are popular like minecraft and bethesda.
It's amazing this game that released 20 years ago is way better than most western games now, it's like games are regressing rather than progressing.
We should have oblivion 4 with npc that react like real-life person with their own agenda now, not avowed npc ai that's not reacting to being attacked π
Considering clair obscur 33 only made by about 33 people, I hope the one that laid off can get making their own games, maybe we'll get 10 clair obscur 33-like games in the future from them π
If the price of mario kart world didn't impact the game sales I'm sure as heck everyone and their mother (the game publishers) will raise the price of their games quickly π
Make good games that everyone want, become rich, it's that simple π
@rjejr I don't think it's healthy to have such jealously in life, after watching some (honest) people success in life you should think "how can I become like that" rather than thinking to eat them.
I think for this time people just want better switch, maybe in the future nintendo can make new experience instead of switch 3, but for this gen it's okay for nintendo to just update the switch, just like they update nes to snes or n64 to gamecube.
Marathon maker is not a gamer, true gamer survive the xbox 360 voice chat era, that's how they make life long friends π»
But seriously, just gave gamers the option to mute voice, why everything has to be "safe". Heck even nintendo got voice chat for every games now with switch 2.
Sigh, microsoft do understand that ps5 bd-ray is not a switch 2 cartridge right? They such a control freak that they can't stand gamer installing their games without their permission π
The art style looks okay at least, not as amazing as the trailer from one year ago it seems, I don't play multiplayer games so I didn't care for this.
I know marathon though, wish bungie make single player games with multiplayer like the original marathon. I just played beyond citadel, a pc indie game inspired by marathon and man the shooting feels really great, if marathon as good as this game I wish at least bungie make marathon remaster with nightdive studio.
