It’s a $30 online only brawler. Are you expecting the marketing campaign of Halo or something? Either way your analysis was, per usual, wrong. The game is getting a good push from MS.
You are funny. While I don't like the gameplay at all, the design immediately clicked with me and I hope this game is just an introduction into a story based game in the same universe. I think it's glorious art design.Ninja Theory have the shittiest fucking taste in entire video game industry.
Bleeding Edge, at least visually, is barf material.
Ive heard nothing about this game until the reviews dropped. Look how many FTP titles that get more marketing than this. It got no push at all. It was sent out to die. You can defend it all you want because it MS but this will be forgotten in a month.It’s a $30 online only brawler. Are you expecting the marketing campaign of Halo or something?

Correcting nonsense isn’t really defending anything. Also you can’t blame MS for your own ignorance. There are plenty of games I’ve heard nothing about, doesn’t mean they weren’t marketed.
You can disable that stuff on Reddit. It’s also everywhere on the Xbone dashboard and was all over Inside Xbox. Also there are plenty of people in the links you’re providing saying the same thing I’m saying, there are ads in various places. One even mentions seeing trailers and ads for it in GameStop.
Sorry that this $30 title from 15 people didn’t get a AAAA marketing budget you wanted, but that doesn’t mean MS sent the game out with nothing. You’re just mistaken, it’s ok. I’ve seen a lot of that lately from you.
i think you got it wrong, mate, gamepass gives the freedom to developers, knowing they arent pressured to sell massive numbers. Bleeding Edge was being developed before Microsoft acquired Ninja Theory, they are still doing Hellblade 2.I think we are already seeing what an all subscription based future would be. Really good AAA are super expensive and very risky.
Low budget or AA games do not need to worry about quality nearly as much if they have to be just "good enough" to be on a subscription service where users aren't consciously paying or specifically buying that particular game.
This is why I hope neither Sony or Nintendo ever lean into this type of service. It's fine for Xbox as they've been struggling with big AAA exclusives for a while anyway. Sony and Nintendo would have much further to fall if they too sacrificed quality for this business model.
The Xbox Dashboard and Inside Xbox? So like I said, to people already embedded within the Xbox ecosystem. You'd think with it being a multiplayer focused new IP they would try and get it out there and generate a bit of buzz so that as many people as possible can try it out (especially with it being on Gamepass) but no, lets just keep this one just for our loyalists.
This is literally the definition of a straight to Gamepass game (which can actually work and push subscriptions if done correctly). Nobody is saying it needed AAA marketing, but it's literally been sent to die. The only hope for it is that word of mouth ends up being strong at some point in the future.
- Nowhere near the top sellers on Steam. https://store.steampowered.com/search/?filter=topsellers
- Circa 500 viewers on Twitch (currently)
- No reviews prior to release (which, whether you believe/like it or not helps market your game and remind people it's about to release)
Nice one with the ad hominem by the way, really appreciate it. Hope that works out better for you in the future.

Well you can continue to downplay and brush off areas where MS pushed the game but it doesn’t change the fact that they did. I mean I guess it’s easy to say they sent the game out to die of you discredit every avenue they took to market the game
Not sure what Steam charts have to do with anything but I guess straw grasping is something you do when your argument is weak.
This “sent to GamePass to die/GamePass filler” is the same stuff people said about SoD2 and yet it’s still going just fine and still getting free support and big updates.
It’s cute that you’re expecting a large marketing push for a small $30 brawler but most logical people would disagree.
