X-Box also just isn't as popular overseas as just a consistent thing at this point. Even when it picks up speed it still massively underperforms its competitors, and nothing has really managed to shift that. PC gaming is also a bigger impact in Europe to my understanding, so if someone is going to get a console it makes more sense to get Switch or PS for exclusives because anything Microsoft makes will also come to PC.

Xbox consoles have always been a loss leader for the wider product ecosystem - reducing the number of console units sold without decreasing overall revenue isn't a bad thing.

Khanstant posted:Spider-Man is also one of the better main superheroes. Superman is an alien demigod raised in a rural environment and culture that doesn't actually exist anywhere. Batman is a psychotic billionaire who is terrible at stopping crime. Spider-Man is a regular person with the kinds of problems and life a human might be able to relate to in some way. if "relating to" the superhero matters your game has too many story cutscenes and not enough beating up badguys and swinging from buildings.

Lol I don't think I've even seen a trailer for it, I guessed it was just repetitive action grind to funnel mtx. When people talk about it I think I'm imagining awards show previews of a turn based superhero game. Edit: I think that was Midnight Suns and these are two distinct products nobody wants.

The grind happens after you finish the story which is 7-9 hours of running from scene to scene with 5 half hour boss bullet sponge fights.

Hogama posted:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ja1rtSS4YlI Oh boy, a constantly chattering voice in your head that's always never annoying. Took out character creation to make a first person stealth and combat game, choosing if you want to be more stealth or combaty. The exploration is pressing X on a few glowing objects they sprinkle at combat arena. The feeding in combat or stealth is like Doom to recharge health or special attacks resources. I'm not sure these people even played Bloodlines. The dev referenced Bioware RPGs when talking about almost letting you characterize their protagonists, instead of reaching for the more obvious example of the game they are supposed to be making a sequel to.

360 started out strong against the PS3, but the PS3 eventually caught up and outsold it world wide. Xbox in general does well in the US, but most markets around the world prefer Playstation by a significant margin.

Waffleman_ posted:I mean, apparently you weren't paying any attention during the Xbox One because that basically never recovered from its disastrous pre-launch controversy. Yeah I really wasn’t. The last console I owned was a PS3 before leaving behind it all together. Only time I really paid attention was during the E3s because they were always fun to cringe-watch while posting. Thanks for the info all.
