MS does something good it get crickets. Only negative MS news drives engagement.

TheNamelessOne234d ago

N4G in a nutshell. Rinse, repeat.

VersusDMC234d ago

Any game pass day one deal helps fund development. It's the same with lies of P, persona 3 reload, exoprimal, etc.

Same with Nintendo and Sony exclusives like SMTV and Stellar Blade. The money given from exclusivity funded development.

It's getting crickets because it's a "no duh" article about something that's happened several times before this game.

Lightning77234d ago (Edited 234d ago )

What you said is facts. It's also worth noting that MS funds fully fleshes out their projects with out taking the exclusive route like Stellar Blade and Sony. I don't praise MS for much this year other than the showcase they had but this is praise worthy. Because every platform still gets the game despite MS's funding.

VersusDMC234d ago

@lighting77

Sony also has deals with games releasing on day one on Xbox. Callisto protocol got development support, RE games have marketing deals,etc

And Microsoft still has 3rd party exclusives like with Stalker 2 and Contraband.

So everyone is doing the usual and this isn't really a special case.

DarXyde234d ago

Lightning77,

At this point in time, would an Xbox release help a game like Stellar Blade? I think the remaining contingent of Xbox gamers are generally resistant to game purchases because why not wait for Game Pass?

I'm not so sure it's worth it for a small studio to fight with optimizing games on Series S and Series X.

Regarding the exclusive route, I would argue that they don't want to lose exclusives, but the priority is maintaining Game Pass.

I'm not convinced it's pro -consumer so much as it is working backwards from the conclusion that "Game Pass can thrive".

Perhaps the rationale doesn't matter to most people, and that's fair. I just don't think it's as simple as "Microsoft is doing well by everyone across platforms."

Julion0715234d ago

Bro go away, u know damn well why it’s quiet here

Lightning77233d ago

Collisto Protocol still funded themselves Sony didn't fund them but they helped them out with tools, lighting and Sony themselves came in and helped them. 3rd party games being built from the ground up is a contractual agreement of course those will be exclusive or Timed Exclusive.

"I think the remaining contingent of Xbox gamers are generally resistant to game purchases because why not wait for Game Pass?"

What's funny about that not everyone even knows what Gamepass is. You would think as much as we do over the internet talk about it and sure player counts are mentioned but allot still by games outright on Xbox. Good games still sell in a traditional matter of the console. Stellar Blade would of done fine on Xbox overall. Square themselves are done doing their exclusive route also.

If MS was already funding and helping an already multiplat game and still releasing as a multiplat sounds good in my book. It's definitely a "You scratch my back I scratch yours" situation only difference is it's on GP and not taking away the other platform. Which is a worse deal for everyone including the developers.

This is just BS spin, they paid to have the game on game pass, that's it. It's like saying I funded the game when I bought it, sure, it's true but that would be presenting the information in a misleading way.

This is a Microsoft shill take on what happened.

Lightning77233d ago (Edited 233d ago )

So the game is still multiplat so what's the issue? Tell me?

Oh like I said you never learn kiddo.

Careful who you call a shill ESPECIALLY coming from somebody like you. Don't test me.....

But you will because you're not smart at all.

Einhander1972232d ago

Test what? Are you going to tell me how I brought this upon myself again lol...

You want to be humiliated again? Ya know like that time you had to hide from the site for weeks?

And again, they didn't help pay for the game, Capcom can fund its own games. Microsoft paid for it to be on game pass, the games development started before Microsoft got involved. Microsoft did not fund the game they paid for it to be on game pass. This is blatantly trying to twist the narrative about game pass.

And gamersocialclub is obviously a shill site, every single article they write is Microsoft propaganda, even the articles that have click bait titles to make you think they are criticizing Microsoft when you actually read the articles they are pure propaganda.

Lightning77232d ago

"Test what? Are you going to tell me how I brought this upon myself again lol..."

"Now you're finally starting to get it. Took you long enough but you lack self awareness so it makes sense why you don't understand why you contiine together owned and shut down."

"You want to be humiliated again? Ya know like that time you had to hide from the site for weeks?"

Huh? Oh you're talking about that one time where I ran out comments and you misquoted and took my comment out of Context because you couldn't admit that your plastic box could be doing slimy buissness deals. Yeah nice try, but no.

"According to Spencer Xbox helped with funding that lended to the game being more bold and creative with things such as art style, boss design, and overall game’s color palette."

It's all in the article.

Regardless whenever MS funds 3rd party games stay multiplat but whenever Sony does it games seem to go exclusive.

Einhander1972230d ago (Edited 230d ago )

You have never won single argument vs anyone on the site... much less me.

Honestly, I think it's comimical that you make these threats like your important or that I actually care about anything you say or your insults.... you are something else. lol

Oh here is the article he's talking about if anyone actually comes back to this, you can judge for yourself though the average dislike vote for him was 25+ per comment.

"You have never won single argument vs anyone on the site... much less me."

You're denial is hilarious. I win every single argument against you all the time very, very easily. Please tell me where I lose arguments against you though. Go ahead and entertain me on this one lol. You're losing this argument already.

Wait you're looking at downvotes? You mean your little fanboy friends Shilling friends teaming up? The fact that you really think that matters just shows you're in a safe space around here surrounded by ppl just like you. If you were in a none fanboy environment you would get eaten alive that's for sure and you know it to.

Btw it's not looking good for Sony because there's been more update that's Sony money hatted the game. Not looking good for you and your plastic box that you love so dearly kiddo.

Einhander1972225d ago

Folks just look at the comment history. No one ever agrees with you...

Lightning77224d ago

I just told you your little fanboy shilling friends who have the same mindset as you will downvote sense, logical reasons, most important anything, I mean anything that makes Sony look bad. If you're using your tribalistic goofy friends downvote some sorta measurement that I'm wrong. Is so funny you should be a comedian.
That's like being a in sports stadium telling their fanboys stuff that compromises their coaches and tactics and them dog piling them no Matter how right you are, that happens to any fanatic anywhere in all entertainment. This place is no different whatsoever. I wouldn't be laughing with you, I'll be laughing at you.

I saw you mention Forza in GT7 article. You can't help yourself can you? Thats the second time you bring up games of the competition unprovoked.

Let me get the mental health hotline for you. Because you're sick and not too bright either. Which is a bad combo yikes.

Einhander1972218d ago

Yes, 30:1 ratios it's everyone else not you...

gold_drake233d ago (Edited 233d ago )

cool

if the game takes off in actual sales, capcom will never put things on gamepass ever again ha

but i think capcom is aware that these highly japanese/asia influenced games dont do well on that platform.
