Ngl I didn't read most of the thread but the last few quotes are really bad takes lol. Hilarious thread though.The Swift_Star meltdown was worth it.

Halo Infinite was a prime example how to destroy a franchise. Microsoft just lacks the expertise how to make a good videogame. Just looking at their output from the last 10 years should tell you everything.
That’s some real hallway monitor energy you have there. I’ve never read an original thought from you on here beyond trying to silence opinions. Next time when you leave, perhaps just go out quietly.You need to go with this hot garbage thread
Holy understatement, Batman! I think Detroit has its moments (especially when things go really south) and it can look very nice (there are weaker sections though), but the main story and all the "good" paths/endings - it's a cheesefest of such epic proportions than even the Swiss would go "no more fondue for me!", with blatantly obvious and unclever allegories that are delivered with the subtlety of a sledgehammer. Playing the game for the first time I thought the "Android Pride 2038" rally surely must be the low point for the game, there's no way this can get any worse, right? WRONG. The ending where the androids all start to sing Kumbaya or whatever and suddenly all the humans are like "why can't we just get along?" was so terrible that I still get mad just thinking about it.Detriot's story is still cheesy in places like Heavy Rain but it's alright.
I didn't do all the branches so I didn't see the kumbaya but yeah it's pretty cheesy.Holy understatement, Batman!

To David Cage's credit though, if video games are to be more than just mindless entertainment and evoke genuine emotions, he really succeeded with me. Rage is an emotion too.
Revenue increased $9.4 billion or 18%.
Revenue increased $15.2 billion or 25%.
Nope Batman exceeds Spider Man in every way, including being 1st to market.
It's fine to be biased, but don't be delusional.
I've seen too many complaints about Ragnarok for it to be perfection (but I havent played it so I can't personally say)
You still didn't tell me what either of them brought to the table that no other game has done though. Which is what I really want to address.

Shame they tarnished the original game with a poor sequel.
Did you seriously say, that spiderman game is better than batman games? Or is this some language issue?Spider-Man has traversal that Batman could only dream of (not that it's bad there either though).
Lets not get carried away. While spiderman game is okay, its not even close to Arkham's perfected gameplay. Not even close. And ragnarok, well if its anything like the first game, its not a marvel of gameplay at all.Let's relax, this is a paid rant.
People hate that their gruff daddy died, there’s a trans character and Abby has muscles. It’s objectively better than the first.I don't get the hate for The Last of Us 2. It may have had it's flaws but it easily has some of the best panther stealth gameplay seen in a game since Chaos Theory.
Most VR games have the gameplay depth of virtua cop. You serious with this?If you want something really interesting and cutting edge in gaming buy the PSVR2 in February. VR is where the last frontier of true innovation is, for now at least.
All the rest is just the same thing repackaged with small improvements, if you are lucky. I just finished God of War Ragnarok. Very good, but very similar. Forza Horizon 5 is very good as well, but almost the same as 4 and 3 before. The new Zelda will be the same thing.
This is stupid. The reason Xbox fans love what they are doing is because it democratizes gaming. So on one has games are more affordable for the consumer in that they don’t have to spend full price each game. On the other hand it gives indie developers a better system to release their games and garner more player, AA developers constantly praise gamepass cause you get the bag and access to 25+ Million potential gamers. And it allows them to take risk…name the last Sony game that was genuinely a risk? They don’t have games like pentiment from their prominent developers because every game has to be a hit. It leaves little room for the risky games that push the medium forward or creates unique experiences.
Here is where last of us innovated. Every level played so different. Even if the underlying stealth was the same, it twisted it in ways that you just didn't know what to expect.Issues with single players is the balance between gameplay and the story.
Gameplay needs to be more than "here is a boss, and reused enemies without any challenges". Those type of gameplay becomes boring over the time. You can't let the story be the vocal point of the game, and have a mediocre gameplay.
I know. ps5 physical games almost do not exist in my area...
But when I put up Callisto Protocol for 40$ after finishing it (about 2 weeks after release), I sold it the same evening.
Physical might not be patched which is a shame but you own the disc. You/market control the price and what to do with the game. It's HUGE thing to give away for "I am too tired to change discs"
Yeah it doesnt make sense Matt Damon is talking about streaming services cannibalizing DVD sales. Gamepass has opened up an equivalent market for games, not closed one off. Microsofts woes with getting games out of their studios has nothing to do with gamepass.I'm not a fan of MS, but I'm also not following the OP's reasoning. Matt Damon is saying that reduced revenue led to reduced risk-taking in the movie business. Okay, but two things occur to me:
1. Why are you supposing GamePass equates to reduced revenue? If publishers lose money by putting their games on GP, they will simply choose not to put their games there, no? That is different for MS studios, of course -- they have no choice. But every other publisher has a choice, and they will go where the revenue is. If GP is a loser for them, they won't put their games there.
2. The circumstance in gaming is different than in movies. In movies, it is reduced revenue that led to reduced risk-taking (or so says Damon, anyhow). But in gaming, it is not reduced revenue but increased budgets that have led to reduced risk-taking. This trend has been evident for well over a decade. It pre-exists GP. GP isn't the cause. Ballooning game budgets are the cause.
So I just don't see the logic.
They are???It seems argentina is gonna win the world cup
It was roller coaster.They are???

That is no longer true since Part 1 remaster came out.People hate that their gruff daddy died, there’s a trans character and Abby has muscles. It’s objectively better than the first.
Apparently so - I had flipped away from the game for a few minutes when they were 2-0 - just came back and ... WTF?It was roller coaster.
Part 1 has better pacing part 2 has a better story imo.That is no longer true since Part 1 remaster came out.
After I could ride a horse in Skyrim seeing myself as if upon it, holding the controller as if holding the reins, grabbing my bow and shooting arrows on a running deer as in real life, from horseback, in movement, yes.Most VR games have the gameplay depth of virtua cop. You serious with this?
So, no gameplay innovations, and just an immersion improvement. Well, that's true, VR is immersive. But how long can you take locomotion in VR without motion sickness?After I could ride a horse in Skyrim seeing myself as if upon it, holding the controller as if holding the reins, grabbing my bow and shooting arrows on a running deer as in real life, from horseback, in movement, yes.
Like 1982's First Blood, the story does not need a sequel and the sequel is worse off as an extension.Part 1 has better pacing part 2 has a better story imo.
Hmmm.... I'm positive I thought MS was publisher of the year last year with the highest rated avg game score for a publisher in the history of MC. It beat out the second place company (I think Sony?) by 7 pts.
It takes just a few days to completely eliminate motion sickness. Just start with games having less movement. I play VR with full locomotion for hours at a time with no problems at all.So, no gameplay innovations, and just an immersion improvement. Well, that's true, VR is immersive.

DUDE! Say what you will about Microsoft and TLOU2. First Blood part 2 was exactly what America needed.Like 1982's First Blood, the story does not need a sequel and the sequel is worse off as an extension.
If anything Sony is doing more damage to the medium with how much it pushed the cinematic linear approach through the past decade.
MS is also the only console maker that actually pushes for games on more devices. Always a PC supporter, GP on different devices, cloud, even Samsung TVs. Heck, even some of their PC centric games like Age of Empires is getting a console port. And currently not one game (newly released or legacy game) has been discontinued on competing consoles. Still there to buy.Pretty dubious result, at best it was a win by technicality, at worst wholly undeserved.
Covered ball shots inbound!It was roller coaster.
