true_fan said: The difference is that MSFT actually gave us good games to play last fall, so there is somewhat of a hangover. Plus if you count until dawn, how can you ignore Ori and the Blind Forest or State of Decay YOSE, heck or the new seasons of KI. Also NeverWinter has a ton of players, why doesn't that count. |
Dog, you trippin.
You wanna talk about Ori and State of Decay because Until Dawn was brought up? Until Dawn, the retail exclusive vs Ori and SoC, the arcade/indie non-exclusive games? If that's the case, I've got a giant list of indie/arcade games that are PS4/PC that would make this whole thread irrelevant if we're putting those games into the conversation. I think you're trying to belittle Until Dawn with that comment, but it looks to be in the same vein as Heavy Rain. So I wouldn't wanna go down the downplaying route with that one. Especially since you know we're talking about exclusive by saying "the next big game won't be until Uncharted"...and while simultaneously talking about multiplatform indies.
And the issue here is about a supposed "drought". Don't talk about 2014 games when we're in 2015. Otherwise, despite your, again, downplaying, DriveClub and LBP3 can get thrown into the mix, and despite your objections, they are good games. So there's "still a hangover". Even though the only holiday exclusives for XBOne last year were the broken MCC and Sunset Overdrive (DC was broken, but has been fixed, and LBP3 has comparable fun factor to SO, so don't knock those games when they were received and performed very similarly to the games that gave you "a hangover")
Now, regarding 2015 up til now, and moving forward, if you think the next big game won't be until Uncharted, you are being willfully blind. Godzilla, Dragon Quest Heroes, Disaega 5, Persona 5, Tearaway Unfolded and more. Unless you're trying to redefine "big"? Some kind of high budget, potential 2-4M seller? Then what has the XBOne had since Titanfall and will come out until Halo 5? Pick your poison, man. If you don't count DC by saying it's not "big", then you can't count SO, for example.
