henr0s , obviously you need to get your facts straight and need to read the article. Because that IS the problem, as the article mentions it. They can't say 'we will spend 500 millions' on this franchise from the get go, what if Destiny doesn't sell enough and it needs to sell A LOT ? than they need to find anyway to milk the gamers. They will also need to allocate more for marketing with the next installment and less on the game itself, making it even lesser-quality. Setting ...
Did you guys read the article? he is not bitter or a troll, he makes some good points. I agree it's a very risky business to make $500 millions games, it's not something that we should encourage devs to start doing. Some of my absolute favorite games do not have a fraction of that budget. Even GTAV did not cost nearly that much. And to be honest, Does Destiny even LOOK like a $500 million game? it's neither ground-breaking nor original.
I am as excited for the witcher 3 as anyone, but DAI is looking amazing and it has a good chance of being even better. DAO was way better than any witcher game after all.
It would be strange to code name it 'origins' if it isn't a prequel. I am not usually against prequels, for example DMC3 was great story-wise but I really don't want a prequel for the new ME because I don't want the events to be pre-reaper invasion because we all know how that ends , in a rather vague and un-satisfying way.
Punishment? that's idiotic. DA:I is looking incredible, all flaws that ruined DA2 like repetitiveness and reused environments seem to have been addressed. If you 'punish' them by not buying DA:I new, you are just asking them to either kill the franchise or go back to being lazy and give the next installment lower budget. Either way I expect this game to sell extremely well, especially on the PS4/X1 as it will be the biggest game so far to come out for the next gen consoles.
I have mixed feeling for this developer studio. I LOVED Heavenly Sword, and like Enslaved but really hated DmC. Their games have gotten worse with each new one. Hopefully their next project bucks the trend.
That is not impressive. What I like about speedruns is to see how fast someone can beat the same game I am playing with the same mechanics/rules. Glitches make the whole thing pointless.
Make headers harder, please please...every game online is like CROSS CROSS CROSS...they just keep crossing to score from headers and it usually works..
