And if The Outer Worlds 2 launches within 1-2 years of Avowed then everyone at Obsidian deserves a raise.

It's Obsidian, so I'm going to say yes.

wooow woow wooo.

Calm down, raise will come... Maybe.... At some point.... BUT first, we need to take care of those shareholders :D 

Also, they should be working for the glory. Money is overrated when you are an artist!

Even the CMA gives better replies anyway could have elaborated atleast on the comment or don't say anything at all.

- Booting up the series console for the first time and seeing the dashboard just felt like a continuation of the Xbox one gen not bad not great, just Fine

Holding the controller for the first time and see how it only got like an extra button makes it like they did not put much thought on it.....Well it is Fine for the gamers

- Yeah great that you can have an external SSD card for Xbox but it is still so expensive....Making it Fine instead of great

- Based on the comments in this thread the last years services like Gold doesn't even come close to being Fine, it really feels like they don't put any effort in the service and I would say stop with gold and make online free.

- Gamepass was on top but also dipped a bit in the last year and that's the only thing that feels like they put atleast some effort in...

- Games in general, to name one thats going to be important later this year and could have his own controversy: 
  Forza Motorsport, fans are not happy with what's known so far, the amount of tracks and cars (only FM1 and FM2 had less) have them worried. 

  The game really feels like it is going to launch in a Forza Motorsport infinite situation, launch with not that much content and promises with updates later... 
  It gets even worse if you know that later on they changed the car list and removed some of them with a message basically saying that they are not in the base game and you can acquire them later one in some ways (battlepass? DLC? Events?)  the worst that can happen is that the executives are Fine with it and release it in a state that the Forza community doesn't want....

- Deals, hate them love them whatever but it really feels like at a meeting someone mentioned that Sony has + 20 deals and the answer was 'Thats Fine we have Naraka, Crossfire, Ark 2, Kojima Cloud game and Stalker 2 those games will define the Xbox series games experience...


With Sony you feel they put effort in the controller, the PS plus games are way better and while they could not compete with gamepass they have introduced new services that honestly is improving fast and maybe already can compete with gamepass....   

And yeah they have remasters but they also put a lot of effort in making games and even had time to come up with VR.... Honestly doing more than what you may expected so yeah aiming for the 10/10 effort leading to Fans being happy, Gamers in general being happy, Reviewers being happy, Streamers being happy, Media being happy to even non gamers being happy with shows like The Last of US...

Lastly the discussion about Sony's and Xbox showcase doesn't mean so much when Sony will also have audience with geoffs summer of gaming event (death stranding 2), Tokyo game show where Ms only seems to announce games that were on Playstation and then oh boy we have the award show at the end of the year...

So..  still looking like a 10/10 over there?

Had not much time to reply and barely have watched the Sony Showcase yet.

No I don't think this is a 10/10 showcase personally and generally in fact it was relatively weak but is also like I mentioned it doesn't change much yet, with summer of games/TGS/Game awards and possible playstation events coming in the year they can surprise people but damn this can be a bad..

In general response

-Yes I saw a ton of people complain about gamepass having a dip in this thread, the days with huge blockbusters coming(GTA/RDR2/Witcher2/All SE games/YAkuza games and ton of other surprises) feels like the past 

- The deals discussion still feels so silly especially compared with installbase, Xbox doesn't mind a game is exclusive to their console and comes day one aswell on PC while Sony seems to try to have games first only on their console and later PC.... I can not imagine those deals being cheap especially when even companies like Capcom are saying PC revenue for some games is bigger than Xbox + PS combined.

Those huge blockbusters (GTA/RDR) which came years and years after their launch on Xbox platforms and were available on Game Pass for over a year? But you complain about Xbox getting Japanese games only after they launch on PS first...

Tbh...I've only seen like 1-2 users complaining about Game Pass in this thread this year and most of the time it's met with counter arguments.

Wait a minute, does Yakuza count as a huge blockbuster but Monster Hunter Rise doesn't? Lol. I love Yakuza but it's nothing compared to Monster Hunter, you only need to look at sales data to come to that conclusion.

So let’s access this digital vs physical argument.

If you support physical releases;
- you support disgusting hoarding tendencies

Yes.





So it's real after all.

Billbil is usually very reliable.

Looks hawt, I'm buying.

Where that console though.
