Lol, I remember when a character reveal for smash leaked and everyone got angry at the thread for being a "spoiler". Entire games leak every e3 and no one cares.

I remember that too cause I made the thread. I did feel bad after though.

meh, I like the art style, propably the combat too. but I don't care about multiplayer. give me something like DmC or enslaved.

MS didn't make them do anything. This was their choice and was in development before the acquisition. 

It's going to be on game pass so I give it a try.

Not my kind of game. But looks like a good addition to gamepass . This can give the game a good quantity of players (similar to Sea of Thieves)
More new Ips is always good, even if something multiplayer focused.

I realy don't like the overall character desing, some look great, but most of than are kinda meh...
Need to see more gameplay, but right now this game makes me remember Anarchy Reigns and i don't think it will be a big hit, more like "another game on gamepass" one that feels like a free to play game.

Surprised about the fuss about this leaking. Sony conferences in the past have had massive leaks not least for GOW, so i guess someone else had to take over this responsibility. 😋

On a more serious note, it is good to see NT chugging along though the game does not interest me personally. I wonder what influence MS exerted (as some have already mentioned) to get a MP focus.

This game has been in development for long before MS even acquired them. So no, they're not "forcing" NT to make a multiplayer game.

sadly these types of dumb uninformed accusation reactions that are all over the place were inevitable ever since the game had been rumored for months now to be multiplayer focused up until it's reveal

you could spell out what you said in big red letters right in front of people and it still wouldn't stop the "see microsoft is forcing their devs to make multiplayer games, so much for creative freedom" shitposting tbh
