Crackdown 3 took them 5-6years to develope, so there really isnt a excuse here. |
The only issue I see there is that Netflix produces quantity AND quality - not across the board, but they have lots of really well-made shows.
Sea of Thieves for instance - that game can't have been cheap to make, wouldn't it have been worth it to spend an extra 20% budget - so lets say 6-9 months development, to build out the content a bit... I'm sure that it would have resulted in > 20% sales though admittedly that is just me going with my gut.
And the Gears & Halo games haven't been bad (& I'm guessing not cheap to develop), just not up to platform marquee standard.
I think that they can be successful in the way that you describe but that it wouldn't take that much extra investment to to elevate some of their games to 'Amazing' and really make a lot of gamers question whether Playstation is worth the extra cost to game...
Sadly its not a Japanese game, so it doesn't get a free pass like those other dated looking games like Nier. It looks like Crackdown alright so thats automatic fun time in my books

Huh? usually its the other way around isnt it?
Like alot of japanese games get lower scores in the west, simply because their japanese.
Nier automata is a amasing game, thats the only reason it scored as high as it did.
It scored well dispite being a japanese made game.

I feel pity for someone who cannot comprehend the greatness of Nier.
Of course not. Even Deadly Premonition is a 4/10 game thats sitting on 6 or 7/10 because you know its Japanese. That Nier game on steam looks like a hobos ass in mid june. Its plays like it too. But its got like high 80s mostly.
Crackdown 1 got a pass, really fun game once you unlock the abilities, shame Crackdown 3 didn't even though it looks and plays exactly the same.

No, that's the opposite.

Maybe being the exact same as a game from 12 years ago isn't good enough especially when that game only scored around 80 at the time. From what I can see the review scores are deserved and it's average will probably get lower.
