Am I losing something here? Literally everything they have been showing has been received with praise.
Knack 2
One or both.
I think the games I mentioned will do both.
Metal Gear Survive
?According to Shinobi Horizon has been reviewing well.
What makes you say that? Anything you've noticed based on the videos that are out that this will not be well received?
This and Scalebound.Nioh. Commercially, not critically. I think it will only appeal to fans of the souls series. (I already have it preordered)
Anything 1st party from Micsrosoft.
FF VII remake episode 1
Metal Gear Survive
Knack 2
Anything with dragons tend to have a curse too, I am still recoiling from Lair that was my first PS3 title.Scalebound:
I know people are high on Platinum due to Nier right now, but I want to remind people this might be a stinker.
Personally I think just both reveals at Gamescom and E3 2016 have looked bad for this game. Despite Platinum looking like they are getting out of the rut they been having since the license games, I think this will just put them right back in after all the good will Nier seems to be doing.
It just looks boring and it just feel like it's missing something to me.
Despite Kamiya being at the helm, I don't feel anything for this title.
Plus Platinum curse.
Nioh. Commercially, not critically. I think it will only appeal to fans of the souls series. (I already have it preordered)
It won't flop commercially either.
For Honor
Horizon Zero Dawn
Critically not commercially.
The Horizon hate is unexpected, honestly don't know where that's coming from.
Because it's a new IP and fantasy based I'm not confident enough to say that.
Companies hire external reviewers that do non official reviews. That helps companies to gauge how good or bad it will be received.
Got a link?

Constructive.
Call of Duty, something has to give eventually. Unless they jump back to WWII or Modern Warfare, I think the appeal will fall off a cliff.
Not a chance in hell is that coming out next yearFor Honor, Yooka-Laylee, Scalebound, Sea of Thieves, Shenmue 3.
It's due to it being developed by Guerilla Games, the same people behind the Killzone series which is just an alright FPS but nothing spectacular.The Horizon hate is unexpected, honestly don't know where that's coming from.
It already did.
Maybe not, but it's probably true given Microsoft's first party track record. Old system sellers like Halo and Gears of War haven't been done that much justice, and the new IP, while certainly interesting, just haven't been very good. Quantum Break and ReCore were both critical failures, and I don't think they sold well either. Scalebound and that Pirate game from Rare look nice, but both have large margins for failure.
Microsoft really need to fix something with their first party devs. They either need new talent because their current devs aren't up to snuff or a new system because they're getting in the way.
It already did.
I don't know if I would call QB a critical failure, it reviewed pretty well.
Gravity Rush 2 and Nier 2 combined will probably sell about 75 copies.
Nier: Automata, Gravity Rush 2, FFXII:TZA (the precious), and Persona 5 are my biggest 2017 worries sales wise. On the other hand, three are semi-niche titles and one is remaster, so outside of TZA, they probably just need to do better than their predecessors. I'd actually forgotten about Scalebound, but I hope it does well.

Seems legit.
Toriyama better go back to horror after all is said and done.
Make a Silent Hills game!
