maybe it's because some of the Arkane big shots left the company a while back and made Weird West?

I only just found out this morning that Arkane co-developed the Wolfenstein co-op looter-shooter that absolutely not a single person on earth liked. It’s more over than we ever believed to be possible.

Fear not op.. It is merely Arkane Austin that is releasing an unfinished mismanaged game. Once the company is shuttered Father Spencer and Father Todd will be able to reallocate the team to other high profile Microsoft-Zemnimax-Bethesda projects projects like We Happy Few 2 and Sesnuasas sacrifice 2. Meanwhile Arkane Lyons can be directed to do a different guaranteed DOA hit, and shuttered by 2026 at the latest. A starfield tie-in early access card game that uses ai generatrd art and the blockchain perhaps? A win for gamers and for shareholders.

Apparently the guy who directed Redfall was also co-director on the Dishonored games and was lead designer on Deus Ex so who knows. Probably some fuckery from above

Or maybe they’re finally realizing they’re a French developer and thus must develop terrible games and hire demented sexual perverts from the backwater villages of Alsace-Lorraine

its p boring imo. the timeloop thing is just tedious, no saving or loading and it has bad hitman elements and also its just reusing the same 4 levels with some changes if their at day or night. id rather just play the dishonored games again w/o all the bullshit.

I bought it on release and still feel like an idiot doing so. I felt it was high chaos dishonored with a time gimmick and a horrific ending. was hoping the time loop would give some variety on how to solve the game but there's just one way to do it. maybe that's too much of an ask but if it's available for 5 or 10 bucks then yeah I'd say it's worth a shot

I agree the ending wasn't all that great, but it's one of the rare games I played that brought me to the ending. I liked the variations and running around stealthily before your character becomes upgraded appropriately. The buildup to the ending was pretty fun too. All in all, for 20$-30$ it's a good game imo

iirc arkane lyon made their game about a time loop while refusing to even look at arkane austin's game about a time loop (prey mooncrash) so i think they might have just been real dumb
