Amazing ? Isn't running like the PS5 ? Seem to be the case
Jedi Survivor performance was mentioned above, but I'll add that it isn't all good on consoles. I play on my Series X about as much as my PC, and the high-profile performance issues that have occurred with releases in the past year are reflected on consoles. It's just not talked about because I guess console players are used to it. Recall the bitching about the "next gen" upgrade of The Witcher 3 on PC? The issues were even worse on console. If you went onto the Series X subreddit you'd see people frequently excuse the horrendous performance of ray tracing mode because of how "pretty" it looked. When I tried ray tracing mode, not only did the framerate chug along frequently at 20 FPS or worse, but there was horrible input lag and regular crashes. Yes, even games on console suffer from crashing.
This is generally why I don't judge a game based on reviews. I appreciate a diversity of opinion, but with Youtubers, at least, it seems that they just feed the circlejerk to get more views by baiting people with confirmation bias. I avoided Dying Light for an entire year due to the middling reviews it had on release, and it became one of my favorite games of all time after I bought it on a whim during a sale. That was the last time I based my purchasing decisions on reviews.
The review embargo was up to 1 hour before release, but it's not always the case that a game with no early reviews is bad. Doom 2016 had an embargo right up to release, which people assumed was a bad sign.
Arkane wants you to play co-op. Stupid decision.
So you blame "woke takeover" for Redfall being awful but consider the game with two black protagonists to not be woke?
Black characters != woke
It was made by Arkane Austin, also known as the B-team. Dishonored, Dishonored 2, and Deathloop were all made by Arkane Lyon. Prey was made by the Austin studio, but the production team on it was completely different. A lot of the talent that worked on Prey left the studio in the ensuing years.
I was using their implied definition as it's a catch-all term for the ignorant. Do you not connect the dots on the reactions here whenever non-white protagonists are shown in games? Star Wars Squadrons, Saint's Row, this, Forspoken, Watch Dogs Legion, etc, just get lumped into being "woke" because of it, especially if it doesn't meet expectations. People look forward to these games failing and Deathloop just so happened to be one of them, too, for reasons completely unknown /s
It seems it is the norm when MS buys a studio. All the talent leaves and studio has flop after flop til MS finally shuts it down.
Clunky, janky, jerky, crap story and gun play. Feels like a lower tier indie game.
Perhaps even good as an indie free to play game on steam (for example). Just don't expect Entropy Zero 2 or even Black Mesa here. Both of those games I'd recommend over a free Redfall.
Is Entropy Zero 2 as good a game as Black Mesa? Because I've been meaning to give it a try.
Enjoyable, smaller than Black Mesa (duh). Just nice to play the other side (on a more contemporary engine).
FromSoftware is owned by Kadokawa Corporation. They are not independent.
Bull shit. Were they not involved when they canceled the PS5 version?
Full interview:
That usually not what people meant, say Netflix say they gave creative control and did not got involved in the production of the movie X.
Very often people will fight to keep control, the more powerful you are, the more ability to keep control you will have and better the track record (in reception, sales numbers) can do that.
