Of course not, but after playing the Beta there are plenty of people with thoughts on what's been shown. The goal was not to make a definitive statement, but share our thoughts with what is known about the game as is. Thanks for taking time to comment.
Bungie has had 3 years to make the game. That's a very long time in the video game space. While I agree that Activation has a history of rushing games out, as do EA and Ubisoft, I would not put Destiny in that category. I think there has been ample time given to the Sequel.
I don't know that anyone here fits the "Destiny Haters" category. Destiny 2 is much anticipated game with a lot of underwhelmed fans from the first game. It's a worthy discussion leading into release. Everything right now is just conjecture, but it's fun to discuss and share opinions about what we know. If that's takes too much energy, for Lovers or Haters, then by all means please save your energy. :)
I do agree that visually, the UI is very familiar. It works well, but it would be nice to have some enhancements. To be fair though,we haven't seen what the final UI will look like yet, so there is a chance that it does get a slight refresh when the game launches in September.
I just don't think 3rd party exclusives games are Microsoft's focus anymore. I think we will see more 1st party content in the coming years, but Phil has said in several interviews that he would not want to exclude games from any fans. To be honest, I wouldn't be surprised in Halo shows up on Playstation at some point in the future!
Oh man, I LOVE Jade Empire. I really do hope we get a sequel at some point.
What, so the only scenario that would be "best" for someone is that it's PS4 or PC exclusive?! How does that make any sense....it doesn't. Also, comparing the Xbox One X to the Dreamcast is almost laughable.
Exclusives are bad, period. They only help platform holders and baby fanboys. Everyone else in the equation loses.
I would not want Anthem to be exclusive because I want BioWare to make money and to keep the series going, the more ...
Just wanted to mentioned that several people have commented on our Facebook Group with their ideas. Gears of War and Halo both made appearances. My favorite fan idea though has to be Mass Effect though. The Mass Effect series is known for it's deep story and character building. It would be a perfect fit for a Telltale experience!
I love that they use licenses, but if I'm being honest, I would be happy with an original story but using the AD idea. Playing through an actual comedy sounds SO appealing to everything we play now! Good pull.
I would agree. At the end of the day, the only thing that we have that speaks to publishers is money.
The Xbox Dive, by no stretch, is trying to say there aren't amazing games on the Xbox One right now or that are scheduled to be there in the coming months and years. This was just a point of discussion that we wanted to touch on. Thanks for that list though man, it's getting me real excited for the fall! :)
@Iloveherliezz Thanks for actually trying to watch the video and leaving real feedback.
I completely respect what you have to say. You are right, the games that we mentioned were smaller indie stuff. Although, I did also mention Kingdom Hearts HD, which is a little bigger of a game, but an older port. And you are right, the principal matters, but that's not the only point.
We make videos about The Xbox and our thoughts about what we see. Both James ...
Hey TheColbertinator, that's awesome to hear. If you want to get some coverage on your game we would love to help you out on TheXboxDive. Just hit us up on Twitter at TheXboxDive.
Did you watch the video at all? We are an Xbox Fansite. We didn't even come close to attacking the Xbox. Thanks for your feedback, but if you are going to throw stones maybe you should watch the content first.
I do hope that the Xbox One X does see some improvement.
moldybread thanks for your awesome reply. Not often do we get well read and though out responses. I agree with most of what you've listed. I would only add that we were not trying to imply that Developers are leaving Xbox all together, but only considering them as a second thought. In a, "we might get to you if we have time and need more money." This is not the case for larger games, at least not right now, but we are seeing this more and more with smaller titles and Shakedown: ...
For now, that's true. But the fact that the Xbox and PS4 are so similar is much more of a concern. The Switch is confirmed to take a little more development time.
Did you even watch the video? From the developer's mouth, they are keeping their launch "Narrow" which includes PS4, Switch, 3DS, Vita, and PC....but not Xbox. There is no marketing deals in place. You don't feel like that's something to be discussed? Well, we did. Sorry if you find that stupid. Thanks for your input, though.
These are all great points Apocalypse. As an Xbox fan first, it really disappoints me that this seems to be the tend of games currently. Hopefully some of that will shift with the launch of Xbox One X. Thanks for contributing your thoughts!
That is an accurate statement. Thank you.
