A reminder of just how bad game evaluation was under Phil Spencer and still is under Matt Booty. Took a matter of minutes in game to conclude that it was far from ready for release. It was a broken mess. And yet Phil Spencer blamed MS internal reviews saying they scored it 2 points higher than media review scores. The fact that Spencer and Booty couldn't see how bad things were for themselves was telling. How Matt Booty still has a job, much less still leading Microsoft studios is beyond me. Maybe part of Asha's "learning" should be looking back at failures like this and asking "why did that shit happen?"
I can't speak to Concord as I didn't personally try it, but I can speak to Redfall as I did. I tried it with an open mind too, really wanted to see if the hate was hyperbolic.
Rancid. Absolutely rancid. What a fucking pile of a game. Not one thing in it was well done....not one. That's impressive in and of itself in a way.
Still havent played it lol. Not really sure what the point of this thread is though, a lot of games 3 years old are forgotten, games better than this one.
I agree that the tweet is confusing, but the context is Nick bitching about Geoff Keighley because of the perceived Xbox slam. He's saying he better see the same energy for Concords anniversary which would be in august.
Again it's a dumb ass tweet, but he's not teasing a redfall 2 or anything.
Great idea for a game. Never played it but I get the impression art direction isn't the only thing that went wrong. Couldve been cool if it were made different.
