This nonsense and trolling.
If the next RPGs from Obsidian, playground and inexile are 10-12h affairs, then I will come back and apologise. But when they are released and bigger than that with great production values, you and your ilk are going to have to come up with something else.
Gears 5 already disproved this, yet here we are with the same idiotic nonsense from the same fanboys.
Something else to ponder. 12 studios on 3yr dev cycles can launch a major game every 4 months. There will be some outliers like RPGs taking a bit longer, or poorly managed studious like 343 offsetting things though. Mojang would not be included either. How many studios does microsoft have again?
I'm not saying they will be small (which so much people seems to have trouble understanding whan it's plainly written ... weird).Just that you can't use games that we basically know and have seen nothing about to prove the ambition.
Is it so hard to understand for some of you that a CGI, no gameplay and barely any information can't constitute a proof ?
So I'm trolling now for saying we don't know enough about these games to be considered big/ small or anything.
Are you that obtuse or really not wanting to understand basic logic?
Maybe take a step back and ask yourself what is the difference between a disagrement of opinion and trolling.
I would've been trolling if I had said something like they will only release indies-like games akin to minesweeper ...See the diference?
I just said that their vision of more frequent publications can only lead to either smaller dev time or smaller budget which is logical whith their gamepass strategy.
And honestly considering where they are heading in the gaming business it's probably the most coherent and smart decision they've made in recent years.
But as a vision we still need to wait and see if it pays off.
And the ambition of a game is not defined by the times played I spent probably 200 hours on Binding of Isaac yet it is still a very small indie game.
And I finished Gow 3 in something like 10 hours yet it is a very AAA game.
Maybe you misunderstood simply becuse you have a distorted perception of what I meant by "smaller games" I did not refer to time spent but more about ambition something that if MS want to release games every 3/4 months will need to be reduced.
Was that so hard to understand ?
