Comparing it to Dark Messiah should result in a welfare check being issued on the person's mental state.
God, if it can't beat veilguard they should just close the studio.Development started after the Microsoft buyout (Nov 201but I can't imagine the game got much further than pre production before the coof. Like Starfield, this is very much a coof project and it bears all the hallmarks.
Hardly 250k.

I was gonna add they should also castrate anybody involved but it's current year game development, those people do that themselves.
Man can't catch a break, he other "big" role in a game got cancelled.
The best explination I've had for it is from Give Me BanHammer -- it's "[Frowns with mild distaste.] Imagine 2010s Tumblr or Deviantart comments Roleplay."
Ive seen worse, but I imagine that the NPC reactions and dialogue make it look even more cringe.
Goddamn has it been awhile since that came out. At this point I have to assume that we haven't seen a 'Dark Messiah like' game simple because the people who could do it are no longer in the industry. Seriously the first studio to make an open world Dark Messiah would be set for life.
I know. I can't even think of physics damage like what is in DMOMM being in a game since like Skyrim.
It just gives them plausible deniability about the game potentially flopping. Playing the game on gamepass doesn't equate to a sale. Be on the lookout for weaselspeak using "players" instead of "sales." This is what Bethesda did with Starfield and to this day we don't really know how well the game did. If the game ends up being a success, they'll let us know and if not, they'll obfuscate.
I started a new playthru of New Vegas recently. I can say that the dialogue feels nothing like this, so I can only assume all the good writers left the company a long time ago. I would love to know when exactly this happened, I don't remember dialogue being this bad in Tyranny/Pillars of Eternity 1 but somewhere along the line, by the time of Outer Worlds/Pillars of Eternity 2 things clearly changed for the worse.
The sales were awful and don't let anybody tell you otherwise. Peak players for Steam reached 330K, I can assume Xbox numbers were a bit better but not by much.
We've been over this a million times in the Starfield thread and you were part of the conversation. We know they were bad but we never got a nice round number like FO4 did. The best we got was Todd's infamous "three million players" line. I'm just bringing it up here because this is a comparable situation.
No one can write dialogue anymore.
I'm probably first in line of the "tar and feather Randy Pitchford squad" but I'll propose even that is a symptom of Buffy the vampire slayer doing well and Joss Whedon disappearing up his own asshole and somehow half of the movie industry joining him on said journey.
If the dialogue was the issue I could laugh at how retarded it was. But you're leaving out how empty and basic and lifeless the combat is. These are devs who have accomplished something that throughout my entire life having played dozends of games of varying degrees of woke cringe that have all been amazingly fun have never once experienced. And that's this. When I wield guns and sorcery in this game, I am bored. I'm serious too. From ff8 to Wizard with a gun. No matter the game I have always found combat involving magic and guns to be enjoyable. This game made that boring. And I am extremely simple to please. The fact they fucked that up is an achievement. They have achieved perfect genetic synthesis between freddy krueger's diarrhea jason voorhees' smegma. This game looks very pretty, but every other thing about it disgusts me so much I can't stand it. It is feces ex machina. The most hand crafted and dedicated mountain of dung mankind has or ever could produce. There is a beauty to fucking things up so perfectly and strategically. Because there is no way this wasn't intended to be the foulest thing ever created. This is a pure work of art. And I hate it.
Worst $60 i ever spent on a game. Don’t get me wrong, the gunplay is great IMO. But the story, writing, and villains are terrible
not even 30k. take obsidian and kill it
These are the people that have turned Western RPGs from badass Sword and Sorcery epics to faggot tier sissy Whedon style garbage. [Raises eyebrows dangerously] We must throw them into a nice big rocket and fire them into the Sun!
