| celador said: Lords of The Fallen was a hit? 68 meta and very modest sales does not make a hit. Looking at wikipedia, they don't seem to have released a critically successful game. Does an official Xbox studio mean MS bought them? if so, why? |
Well first I must say that the game has a low 70's meta on PC/Xbox One. While semantics, they are technically capable of making a "good" game.
Secondly, it is that factor that could have made said business deal financially feasable for MS. It's modest sales also could not have helped the studios negiotations against MS for more money.
MS was criticized for lacking in 1st party studios last gen, and this makes the most sense, given that they clearly are not getting the lions share of console sales this gen. Keep in mind both MS and Sony have 1st party studios/have published games that score below 70 on metacritic.
Guess with MS, damned if you do, damned if you dont.
Xbox: Best hardware, Game Pass best value, best BC, more 1st party genres and multiplayer titles.
