I wonder what's more insulting, a bad metacritic score or nobody aware that a game exists.


I know I'd much rather be The Order than Project Spark...

...PROJECK SPARK IS RELEASED ALREADY?

There was quite some hype surronding the reveal, how the fuck did that happen?

+1 on that.  I didn't realize it released.  Thought maybe it got delayed.

Project Spark as of last year on June had 1 million players. So i know it has been successful in that regard. It also had a retail release i believe in September 2014. Theyre still adding stuff though like Conker, Space stuff, etc It is similar to KI in that aspect where it has continuous work being done to it.

I dont play Project Spark though so i cant offer you much more than that. Once Conker drops ill play it

If it's from June, that's 1 million players from the open beta, seeing as the game came out in October. How many people bought this game anyway?

It was completely ignored, which is even worse than being bashed.

Yeah, I wondered too. I was surprised it was released already. It seemed that they quietly released it and was done with it. What about Conker? They made that seem like a big deal...

The game is f2p, the box only comes with some stuff.. Not even worthy.

Many played it, it got about as many players on trueachievements as killer instinct which was confirmed to have been downloaded by millions.

I had forgotten about its existence. I guess it failed to stir up the critics and fans like the original LBP did.

F2P? Really? Just shows how much I know about this game I guess

I always thought that creating a 3D world was gonna be more work than what the general player would bother with.

I imagine it might have been due to its failure to take off that microsoft decided to finalise the mojang deal.

As Tiago said, it was FTP.  The game itself actually has a very strong community from what I know.  But yeah, the beta was practiacally a release.  Just called a beta imo to hide the fact that everything wasnt available at launch.  As i said before, its similar to Killer Instinct in that regard where its continuously being worked on.  

But as you seen with KI, even though the game is praised to being one of the best fighters it got mixed reviews because it only had 6 characters at launch.  It it would have released with all 24 with a story in 2016 it would have recieved around a 90 in my opinion.

Just one of those things about releasing games when you know its not exactly finished. Slapping beta on it helps
