Isn't it just a combination of map generation algoriths for different genre, with the genre then randomised too? It doesn't appear to follow any sensible solid design principles with these algorithms, just generates randomly, hence why most of the maps it creates are horrendous.

In that regard even games like Torchlight and Diablo, any game with a random map generation system does a significantly better job of constructing a map than angelina. Angelia just has the advantage of randomising other aspects like the genre and collectibles, presumably from a library of preset model. Something that in itself isn't particularly difficult to do.

Bottomline, it's not advanced, or innovative at all. It just stretches its goals too thinly and ultimately produces a bad version of everything rather than one solid map / level, like other randomly generated games do.

COD games? :D

Skynet is here beware

Tell me again how the multiplatform strategy was supposed to fix everything. Look at your results and compare them to Nintendo, which keeps thriving with exclusives. Your loyal fans are gone. And let’s not forget the pile of IPs you purchased only to let them rot.

The worst thing is this is down from last years numbers/expectations which was down from the previous years numbers/expectations. You think about how long “down” has been a consistent part of the communication and you realize those subscriptions are what’s holding that boat together. The price cut of gamespass is still a price raise in a string of price raises. They are trying to use players to offset the missing revenue. Now call of duty is out of gamespass, which is literally WHY they bought the company. To draw people to the subscription. They realized they missed a boatload of money and that wasn’t sustainable. Now you pay for it like you would have if they never bought the company… so why buy the company? Mind you those billions still need to be paid back. Yeah it gives you a chance to say we make the biggest FPS… but the internal conversations must be brutal at high level on topics that really matter. Like revenue. Profitability. And ROI for the shopping spree.

Is this like the 10th quarter in a row they're down 33% on hardware how is that even mathematically possible. You would think their mediocrity would Plateau

Wuchang is great. Nine Sols didn’t have a physical copy so I never played it but I’ve heard good things so I will check it out. I stopped playing sports games many years ago when before the card dlc’s or whatever they’re called.

Last comment… ):

Great month for others, but not me. Hate soccer and soulslikes. Maybe Nine Sols is good.

🫡 it was fun while it lasted, N4G.
