But If that game cannot sell Xbox One or even sell itself, then xbox owners will have me very confuse.

Well, QB is different than other Xbox One exclusives.

First, they announcend it 3 years ago, so the "WoW" effect is just gone.  Many other games with good graphics were released, and many more announced. Timing is important thing if we talk about game sales.If they release it in 2014, the must-have factor will be much stronger. One thing may be a killer in 2013, but the same thing is just ok in 2016.Nobody would compare QB to U4 for example, or other games. Now, QB graphics are nowhere near to that " next gen " effect, simply because games like Battlefront,Witcher 3 etc released. Gamers simply get used to this level of graphics and want more.

Digital Foundry proves that QB has framerate issues and cheated 1080p on X1. I do not want to be a party-popper, but I see a downgrade in graphics fidelity, sadly.  Image for fucksake

It is single player only game, so the quality of experience is real factor here. If u want to spent this 20/30/40 etc hours, why not experience it in real 1080p ? Also, the reason it is only single player game - people may just wait for price to drop - look the Order 1866 sales. I think in 2016, ur game must have multiplayer or really long story/big open world to make good numbers.

If we turn back to the 2013/2014 threads, we can see that " I will buy X1 for Microsoft games " is the most popular reason to buy X1, so it may hurt's potential sales boost. U cant eat one cake and still hold this cake at one time.

Anyway, 2nd party exclusives like Ryse, DR3,TR, Sunset did not sell well on X1. I think it is " Wii U " effect - videogame console, with mixed quality, literally kills sales of sometimes really good games.

 

Last thing - the whole TV show thing. It's new idea and I support it to a deegre, but I somewhat I feel the thing that shall be in game will be in TV show instead, and some people repeat my worries.
