@Finch Btw there's no "believing" everything thing I said was factual that's was the biggest news when they bought out all those studios 3 years ago and with Bungie last year. That they're hands off development on all. Their studios. The only thing MS does is market/fund the games and has say on where the games go.

Nice of you to change your argument to something nine related. You did exactly what I said you were gonna do and that's find something el...

@Doom it's a hypothetical, we don't dictate anything. This is the result of what happens when devs show gameplay too early we harshly judge it. We all wanna see those PS5 and Series X only games truth be told we're long overdue we need to see something with all that power they've been taunting for the past year. Luckily 2022 looks to finally deliver those games to us. Early purchasers such as myself have been wanting those current gen only games. Only to have virtually everyth...

You've been saying that for ages but yet here we have a game like HBII which looks bigger and better than the first one and that game won't be out until 2023.

Fable, well if all you have to do is look at Horizon 5 and with its open world which looks stunning there's 99. 9% chance that Fable won't get "watered down." MS pays their teams either way as if the games didn't launch on GP so MS is taking care of the devs regardless.

Because gamers demand gameplay and can never wait or be patient, when they do finally show something everyone gets mad and criticizes then say yeah, it needs work. Don't get me wrong even I try to fight the urge of rushing devs to show something, but I know better than to just wait. This game won't release until May so we gotta awhile.

It was way better than E3 this past summer. Everyone at E3 was Asleep at the wheel it was like nobody cared about E3. The Vga's blew it outta the water easily. Bigger showcases and reveals while E3 had nothing memorable at all.

@Olden Hell Blades budget was also just shy of 10 million. With a budget like that tons of cut backs happened, similar situation with Psychonaughts 2/until MS bought them as they did with NT. So 30$ sounds about right when you had a studio thats been struggling financially.

@DB I guess Geoff is a liar now about it being gameplay? Lol riight. As I said why wouldn't the second game look better than the first under a WAY bigger budget.

That's fine everyone has preferences. I Was Just letting you know it was gameplay.

DF even said that the game was running on a working engine. With some CG effects yes but the game was generally in engine.

Again DF confirmed this 2 years back. So they were right.

I was just thinking that. Sony and MS devs work long hard hours on these games. So on the human side it's nothing more than just respect for shipping the game. A game that's been through developmental hell so yeah he's toasting to the team's for launching a successful game knowing how hard it can be at times.

Finally. It's been 2 years since this game was shown my god freakin finally. Yes this is gameplay also. I can still see early 2023 for this game.

It's not a cut scene. Let the denial begin. Lmao. If he first game looked great why wouldn't the sequel look great with a huge budget under MS?

Geoff said all gameplay.

So how is it that games like Uncharted and The Last Of us can all be rendered in game but this game can't, or maybe because it's a Xbox only game?

It's using Unreal 5 only on X and S and if you saw their blog they did photogrametry real time video footage of Iceland just like Forza did with Mexico. So why are you denying this is what the game looks like? This isn't CG its in engine. You know other publishers can create beautifully rendered crafted story nar...

Halo Infinite being mentioned is very, very weird. halo is officially out if the release window but I guess there's acceptions?

What are you gonna say about Stalker 2, Redfall, Forza Motorsport and Starfield next year? All you and many others did was did is mock then for 3 years. Eve. Going as far as saying they weren't doing anything with their studios? That never made sense but anyway. It's a very hard pill for you to swallow knowing MS will finally deliver the big AAA games. You can accept reality or continue to make excuse after excuse.

It's just marketing for the movie. Sony's been promoting the movie as well as the Game lately.

He's been better in the past several years now. The VGA's are like miniature E3's now. Something it used to be in 7 gen. 8th gen rolled around and it was about the celebrities and extremely pointless. Now it's about the big feel games again. Which is how it should of stayed all along.
