It didn't fail, but the article is right about one thing. They had planned for an entire 2nd expansion that ended up getting cancelled because they didn't have the funds to make it. But again, this was all due to the Auction House screwing players at launch and turning people off from the game.
It seems successful now and the game has been much better since the console versions released. But they are not making enough off of that. But again, maybe they should have ...
This is such an ignorant article.
"Particularly patient traders could become the most powerful of characters in the game without actually doing any fighting. So long as they were watching closely, buying low and selling high, there was no need to play the game, but they could still have the best items."
Having awesome gear isn't all takes to be powerful. You still had to play the game to level up. Gear was still restricted by level. So if yo...
"No. FF12 was when narrative and plot issues became obvious, where with FF10-2 it was painfully obvious."
You know, I completely forgot about 10-2. So yeah. You're right. But how was 8 the beginning of things really going wrong then, like you say in your original comment?
FF8 is a black sheep? It's a very popular and loved game. FF7 is widely considered the best entry in the entire series. FF8 is also widely considered to be either the 2nd or 3rd best entry.
Since when does being 2nd or 3rd in a series of over 15 games make it a black sheep?
FF12 is the beginning of things going wrong.
Lifetime numbers? So what are you implying? Only 112 million people have played this game in over a decade?
Sorry, but no. You must not realize how huge and popular Minecraft is.
I would LAUNCHING a creative game is the goal all devs strive for. Interesting how they are basically saying this game won't be great at launch.
Really? Skyrim had awesome looking armor. Have you never played it?
You need to learn what false advertising is. Just because they originally had plans to do something one way and then changed it while in development doesn't mean it was falsely advertised.
They've made it very clear that it is no longer a 3rd person game. We've gotten a long gameplay walkthrough clearly showing it was an FPS. And the real heavy advertising hasn't even begun yet.
So please, stop acting like people are being victimized in so...
Isn't it obvious why they wouldn't want DLC characters to be Redskins of the main characters?
Did they say there would be cosmetic microtransactions?
This is the dumbest thing I've ever seen anyone write on this site.
Where are you getting this idiotic crap from? FPS fans want to end the option of putting 3rd person in games? Really? Do you honestly think anyone would care if they added a 3rd person mode to this? Because they wouldn't, as long as it doesn't effect the FPS quality.
People here are simply defending the devil's decision. Nothing more, nothing less. At no point have I seen...
What's funny is I remember when it was announced that this would be in first person, there were people all over this site claiming that they ONLY played Skyrim or Fallout in 3rd person. Lol
Right. Even if they did, why would they put themselves through that kind of punishment? Those games are HORRIBLE in those modes.
It's such a shame what happened to this game.
It's also very surprising that no one has stepped up and made something similar. Usually most devs/production companies in the video game industry mimic anything that is successful, and with all the praise that P.T. got one would think something very similar would have come out by now.
No. It's been pretty obvious that he's the same Doom Guy from the original Doom. If you played Doom 2016 and paid attention to anything lore related then its blindingly obvious he's the same guy.
All of the Doom games are the same guy. Even Doom 3. He's also a descendant of BJ Blaskowitz from the Wolfenstein games.
Yeah, it was already pretty obvious from Doom 2016. But there are other sources that also make this obvious.
A simple Google search answers this question very quickly.
What do you mean "you people"?
Mmhmm.....I know your kind.
No. But banging all those guys makes you a gaymer.
You bought a Switch so you could buy SNES and N64 games? Interesting.
At launch it was not a hit. It didn't become a hit until it released on consoles and removed the Auction House.
