Not much love for Cumpulsion here?
I enjoyed my time Contrast. The shadow puzzles were interesting, so was the setting/atmosphere.
Apparently they've completely changed it up since the beta .I'm still intrigued by We Happy Few, but the response on the beta wasn't really positive.
Why do you think they would even accept such a project again? This game really did something to y'all.I'm so happy about team ninja being Microsoft property. This means that capcom wont be hiring them to make another DMC right? Like, ever again?

That was always been said about studios like NT. To big to be indie and to small for triple AAA. Reason so many went under.Considering Ninja Theory started a project with Hellblade to make an independent AAA game (as per their own words), I definitely feel like that they want to be AAA, and the deal with MS could very well entail that sizing up.
Yeah, MS probably has 3 new AAA studios under their belt, which is a very strong boost for their first party. It will be very interesting to see what they can pull off next generation.
Did you read the Fake Kaz tweet 5 days ago with this exact joke, forget, and then think you were being fresh here?

Nope. I'm just jumping in.
Oh snap! Isn't that the xbox slogan?
I'm on a row baby! Yeah!
Edit: I thought Fake kaz retired.
Maybe safer if they go 3rd party now to save everyone so much pain...Let's see if Microsoft continues that streak of ruining studios and/or shutting em down.
Jeff Gerstmann says they completely changed the game. It's now a Bioshock narrative type of game with light elements from the beta.I'm still intrigued by We Happy Few, but the response on the beta wasn't really positive.
I do love that Ninja Theory video btw. Feels honest and great to see a dev do that.

What?Let's see if Microsoft continues that streak of ruining studios and/or shutting em down.
They've closed a whole bunch of studios in the past but things has clearly changed now with Phil Spencer's new position and focus on trying to solve the 1st party problems. I'm not worried for these new studios, I'm actually excited to see what they can bring to the table now that they'll have bigger funds.Ensemble Studios, only one that comes to my mind. I am really excited what Undead Labs can do with proper support tho.
Just search. At least 6 come up over a recent timeframe . Off quick glance some include Lion head, press play, pioneer studios, the age of empires people, bungie being dissatisfied and leavinh..etc...

Lol so now MS is the only company shutting down studios?
Okay.gif
I'm still salty about liverpool and zipper on the PS side. Rest in spaghetti, never forghettiI think there is a reasonable discussion to be had on how MS seemingly run their studios and closure but bringing up unannounced studios and others that left 11/9 years ago is about the worst way to go about it.

Not sure I get your point? Studio closure doesn't occur on a whim, there's obviously reasons involved both internal and otherwise. It's only bad when MS does it?I went off online articles. They were studios that got the axe. Plenty more show a trend just as you said run into the ground or just trash production under MS. I'd fully expect rush jobs out of these newly aquired studios. And yes 10 years is fairly recent in a business.
Sony has shut studios down yes. They have shifted reources closed for strategic reasons but at least they were productive in some ways prior. Some worked on multiple franchises before closing shop or moving.

You obviously came in here with an agenda and to derial the thread. You're not fooling anyone.

This topic is about the future. There's new management now, so bringing up stuff that happened 10 years ago isn't really a good comparisonNo I came in to talk on Microsoft's history with studios.
So name all the success they have had with purchasing and owning studios? There is more negative results than positive . They don't give studios any freedom really at all in the past.

I think MS will steadily talk what the studios are working on, just to build hype. Maybe Gamescom but I am kinda expecting next year at the earliest.So what's he soonest we can expect to see any info on upcoming games?
Good.
I think we'll see a Ninja Theory announcement in 2019.So what's he soonest we can expect to see any info on upcoming games?
