Loneken said: MS really need to give a second chance to some new ips of this generation. Recore, Quantum Break, Crimson Dragon and Sunset Overdrive are solid games, a bigger budget or some extra polish could make them good AAA game for next generation and ad good variety to Xbox games. *I know sunset overdride 2 is now imposible in Xbox. Is just an example. Sorry for my bad english. |
I didnt play Recore much but I liked a lot of what it was doing. It looks like like 6th gen era platformer which we dont see much anymore. Seems the game is a bit polarizing so I need to really play it before having an opinion.
Quantum Break will not have a sequel in my opinion. I think it was an interesting experiment that may have been a failure. Its a fun and short game, so I may replay it. Alan Wake 2 makes more sense but still risky. If you compare it something like Uncharted it looks like a shallow game, but its better than something like 1886.
I played Crimson Dragon a little. It seemed fine as a Panzer Dragoon clone. I suspect it got low scores for pushing microtansactions and it didnt look like a next gen game.
Sunset Overdrive was great but that belongs to Sony now. My guess is PS5 will get a remaster and they will determine if a sequel is ever worth doing. That is the Spiderman studio right now.
Shame we didnt get a new Fable or Scalebound, might have made the lineup look a liitle better.
People ignore MS took a stab at new IPs, there was some success there. There was success in old IPs as well. I think they will fix mistakes made this gen and push at more notable content with their new studios. As a Game Pass user I look forward to trying just about everything they release as well.
