***"Not to mention this site as I have learned tends to misquote or leave out key important details in order to provide clickbait headlines."***
This.
I was at XO19 and new that what Choudry had actually said and what Stevivor reported were not the same, not even close. That's why I flagged the article.
In the past 24 hours.

I see what you did there, I don't think I'm a lot dumber than you think that I thought that I thought I was once.
I like to break a mental sweat.

You're right in saying that anyone that has an opinion at odds with Demonic should not automatically be labelled as "lame", I agree with that 100%.

Hey Buddy, Good to see you back :)
Stevivor.com .... Never let the truth get in the way of a good story.
This article is poorly worded and spreading misinformation to gain a response from the community and generate hits for Stevivor.com.
I was at XO19, the message Kareem Choudhry was ACTUALLY spreading was that in the future, developers will be able to submit versions of their games written specifically to take advantage of the benefits of cloud technology, in that way these versions of their games will be exclusive to the cloud and developers will have the ability to tweak th...

Not sure why people are disagreeing with you, the game looks fantastic.
@Crimson
***"I’m sorry, but no, a review should not be solely based on opinion"***
Whether you like it or not, as I said in my original comment, aside from passing judgement on the technical merits of a game the rest of a review is the individual reviewers personal opinion.
It's the same for movies, music, food etc , If this wasn't the case then all reviews would be identical.

***"If PS4 sold 66,0000, XBO 34,000, XBO suddenly selling 68,000 instead would mean a slightly greater than 50% part of the sales, not 68%. I mean, 66% + 68% alone should tell you things shouldn't add up to 134% of total sold"***
I agree, 100% of sales is a finite number based on copies sold.
It would however mean that sales figures have now increased by 34% to 134,000 copies of the game sold using the numbers in ...

In addition to the above, the comment I made was in response to Knushwood Butt's post;
***"Fallen Order on Game Pass making its mark"***
Which implied that somehow, despite the game not even being available on the service, GP was somehow responsible for the 34/66% Xbox/PlayStation sales split.
My post highlights that despite the fact that Xbox One has around half the market share of PlaySt...

***"Reviews are pretty pointless now"***
A review is just an opinion, it makes little difference as to whether a game is actually good or not, or whether you personally will enjoy it.
A review can highlight bugs and glitches and comment on the quality of the overall presentation of a game and sometimes this can be useful, but other this, a review should be considered an opinion based upon the reviewers individual tast...
@Justin
***"It's hard to call it DLC, because it was so expansive, so huge, it's almost like a whole new game entirely"***
I fully agree with your sentiment, it's a massive expansion that really is an embarrassment of riches compared to the low quality content delivered by most developers and publishers.
However, it does require the base game to work, so in that respect it is still DLC.
@Christopher
***"That's not how any of that works at all. It's extremely rare that selling to a higher market reach platform will linearly increase sales of the product"***
Chris, I didn't claim that selling to a higher market reach platform linearly increases sales, I said that taking into account the install base for each platform the % of that install base that purchased the game on Xbox One was within 2% of the % the install base...

I cancelled my Founders Edition Pre Order a week ago.

I DO NOT want to support a stream...

I really enjoyed Outer Worlds, and I'm a massive fan of MHW Iceborne - but ZA/UM's Disco Elysium should absolutely win best role playing game.
Disco is hugely original, extremely clever and innovates the genre in ways that no other game has this year.
I'm so pleased that it's getting a console release next year, any fan of RPG games owes it to themselves to play this amazing game.
@ifrit
I think it's worth a 10, the game is phenomenal.
There's nothing else quite like it on any other platform, I'm really pleased it's getting a console release next year - I'd hate to think gamers on console would miss out on Disco.

Forgive me if I've missed something here, but haven't Xbox acquired multiple studios in the past 18 months in addition to forming a new studio, The Initiative?
