FF16 is less traditional and closer to action game than RPG, but it is definitely more RPG than GoW, not even debatable.
It has been going down hill since first half of XBox 360, when they started focusing on Kinect instead of releasing high quality exclusives.
The problem was never the business models, but the games that they produce, if the last two years of GamePass was filled with killer first party games, people wouldn't be in so much doubt about it now.
MS is overthinking, keep pushing different things like Kinect, TV, Cloud, GamePass, when all they needed to do to be successful is actually put the resources on making amazing games. Some people would say Nintendo is all gimmicks but they are actually not, their gimmicks are usually weak, and what makes them so successful is their games are actually good and fun to play. Same for Sony, their have their shares of gimmicky stuff, but I would say they are mostly focused on delivering quality gam...
I don't get why XBox gamers is ok with this, and keep saying "just give up, now we have gamepass anyways", but the point is, all Xbox live gold subscribers have been paying the same money and getting MUCH MUCH MUCH less than before.
Then why can't you?
Release all Bethesda games on PS and I would believe it.
Keep saying "mobile" to pretend they are not trying to take down Sony.
Exclusives are two side blades. It makes your platform stronger because your platform has games that gamers cannot play anywhere else, but it also make franchises less well known if they don't gain traction.
PS gamers who enjoyed Bethesda RPGs will either getting an XBox or PC to play them, or they might just skip them from now on and play RPGs from other studios instead.
At the end of the day, if the developer has confidence that they have produced a...
@lelo2play, it would be the movie studios who would cry, not the actors, they got paid already, it is just like how individual developer of a game doesn't care whether a game is on gamepass or not, because they are salary based.
If Netflix, Prime Video, Disney Plus....etc are indeed better platforms, you wouldn't see any new movies on the theatre. Even Disney releases their new movies few months after it is on the theatre, why? Because they don't want to miss ou...
Justing using your comment as an example StarkR3ality, you have 6 likes and 7 dislikes, I don't see how it is "belongs" to anyone.
It is just XBox gamers thinks whenever XBox articles got dislikes, it is only because people are biased, cannot accept the fact that MS/XBox/Gamepass/Phil just in general did many things wrong and not doing something healthy for the industry.
I never heard a PS gamers address Jim as."Lord Jim", but I he...

So I guess you agree it is anti-compeitive then?
Are we really becoming that lazy now? I am getting too old (not enough time) to let a random number generator to tell me which game I should play next.
And then another button that play the game for you? Well, people watch games now on YouTube, more or less the same thing... -_-
It doesn't always kill games, but it stained the developer's reputation.
The next game they launch, people will be more of a wait and see, instead of buying it day 1, which hurt the revenue a lot, when you compare a sale at launch for $60, to when you buy the game now is $30.
I am glad it finally fixed the game though, I tried on PS4 day one, then returned it. And never got a chance to try it again yet, might buy it after finishing FF16, Zelda, Je...
Enjoying it a lot, 3 complains though.
1. I understand accessibility, but this game has too many things that make it a bit too easy, for example, how it fill up all your potions after a death.
2. Optional side quests quality... dialogue, animation, type of missions...etc are a little weak.
3. Too little stats, only see 3 stats so far, attack, defence, and heart/health, a bit too simplified for newcomer.
Other than these, enjoy the game a lot, enga...
Finished installing it, starting the game now, enjoy the game my fellow gamers.
To match Sony... lol
I don't see them releasing quality first party games to match Sony.
@sparky77
Digital Foundry says performance is flawless and you can still find a way to say it is otherwise... you are indeed something else...
@sparky77
Only see your comments in the two 7/10 reviews out of the dozens reviews on the homepage, and keep saying it is polarizing scores when it is 90 positives, 7 mixed on metacritic... does it helps you sleep at night?
What a forwar.. I mean backward thinking.
So, they released a much weaker standard machine versus PS5, and then released a Pro version way too early.
Title Correction:
"Xbox Series X|S has found a new goal poles location to appears they have an edge over PlayStation 5"
@Minute Man 721
The problem is not whether they do streaming or not, but how focused they are, like I said, if XBox produced the games to support GamePass, no one would compare. But continue to think we are just biased so MS continue to do what they are doing, only Xbox gamers suffer.
