The Initiative is a new studio. But I do love the Ninja Theory purchase, I can't wait to see what they do with a AAA budget.
I thought it was extremely well produced. So many great games. But disappointed they didn't have a new Xbox Elite Controller.
Kingdom Hearts 3, Ori and Shadows Die Twice were my favorites.
I did love DA Inquisition though. I still have hope they can make good games. But I do feel Anthem, at least what we have seen so far, does not look that good.
I would hold off calling Anthem a failure until we play it but the gameplay did fail to impress. Plus the idea that Destiny is a failure is comedy. Not only did Destiny sell extremely well but still going strong today.
I can't see it. Anthem looks so slow compared to Destiny. And the AI so far in Anthem is non existent. Anthem seems more like Mass Effect Adromeda so far.
Microsoft needs to make a great platform for developers to release great games. Already so many great games being made.
Pretty much how I felt as well. Hopefully the enemy AI is more advanced than what they have shown.
Has been coming to Steam since it was first announced.
Best looking game of their entire conference. Looks great
Personally I love the blackout modifier. I hope they don't get rid of that. But Grounded, yeah that can go. Shame to make a game with such awesome platforming mechanics and then discourage using these fun mechanics.
AIM doesn't solve locomotion, and it is hardly the first gadget in that area. The issue with locomotion is that your body ins't moving by your virtual self is. This not only breaks immersion but it makes people sick. It is the biggest hurdle in VR currently. To keep full immersion you basically have to make stationary games or use teleportation. Neither is ideal for video games, where you want the player to go on adventures and discover/explore.
@Neonidr: Yeah, I think DO will win too. Damn it. Maybe though, I have seen a ton of FWC players out there. The sidearm is by far the best gun but so many people want the Crutch Lance catalyst.
You can easily make 50 though. Just go to Titan with a friend and have one person focus on patrols while the other looks for captains. 4 renown is the goal. If you have a full FWC set you get two renown per patrol and same for captains. As soon as you get 4 loot Lost Sector. And when a public event starts you get 4 renown from making it heroic. You can average around 21 tokens per 7 minutes
Slacker, I already have Sunshot catalyst. Thank you for supporting FWC though! Hopefully we beat Dead Orbit.
My wishlist for Microsoft.
1. New version of the Elite controller. Great controller but it has a fault where the grips and shoulder buttons wear out after a couple years of use. Needs to be updated.
2. If they want to make Windows Store something that users will love they need to make an interface for PC that is usable by controller without constantly having to go to keyboard mouse.
3. Better HDR support in Windows 10. HDR gaming is s...
Will be interesting to have a different studio heading this, hopefully they can live up to the steep expectations already set.
Easy to solve. Just don't buy multiplatform games on Sony devices. They aren't offering the best versions anyhow.
I loved the first game so I do care. It was sandbxing bliss. What is not to love about platforming and shooting if done well
If it wasn't ready for a summer launch they are probably better off waiting. Red Dead will rule this holiday season.
True, not a huge budget but they did have around 20 million. And they did pretty well with it even if the game was extremely short.
