>>750680958Asha, I don't feel so good
Its a good game
why not just make a better game for $50 million
>>750681090Nah, Mags ruins it.
>>750681657AAA development is following the same formula as Hollywood, where they're consolidating their efforts into a few flagship titles. It's why the PS5 still has less than two dozen exclusives. The issue is that Hollywood is a shrinking industry, so it makes sense that they don't put out mid budget movies. Vidya is not a shrinking industry and you have much better options for distribution than movie theatres.More modest budgets with smaller teams and more freedom to try new things is definitely the way to go. It's what developers focused on with Playstation back in the day.
Games like that makes me wish a humankind finally eradicatedAlso fuck the knights cuckcage
>>750680958>Should we make this a classic early '00s action movie callback, with a focus on an early buddy-cop relationship between Marcus and Dom?>Nah, let's focus on other assholes no one cares about and pad it out with bullshitMust suck to suck
>>750681657how the hell are all the useless feeders gonna get their cut that way
>>750680958>phil spencer approved a GoW prequel that cost half a billion to makeyeah theres a reason hes gone
>>750680958How were they supposed to sale +7mil copies?
It sucks that we probably won't get another Gears game because the disconnected boomers will blame this on no one wanting the IP instead of the fact that it is lazy and the most homo fag shit game since Concord
>>750684513It could have easily done double that during Covid if the game had released back then was actually good. Not really possible now for a game that was greenlit during the Biden Blackrock DEI mandates
It was okBut the lesbian shit is a no buyNot even a little should be accepted on those things, its not that good
>>750681657For the same reason why you haven't made a good game yet. It's difficult.
>>750680958>that's not a lotIt is when you know it's DOA and will 100 percent fucking flop. And on top of the fact that they know it won't sell very well, they're also making it console exclusive AND putting it on Gamepass...they're effectively killing the game before it even launched.
>>750681090Maybe on planet retard.
>>750680958The chuds did this
>>750680958>game actually costs 1250 dollarydoos per unit$1000 videogames soon.
>>750682248The problem is they AREN'T putting their effort into a few flagship titles. They have fucking RUINED almost every flagship franchise in the industry. I genuinely can't even think of the last time a franchise had a quality entry. on the consoles anyway it's abundantly clear they don't give a fuck about these IPs, and are arguably trying to drive them into the ground on purpose for some reason I don't understand.
>>750686424Use case for making good video games?
>>750684601Let's be fair, a big part of it is no one really caring about the IP anymore.
>>750681090Are you having a blast, saar?
>>750681090I don't know, I won't buy it after witnessing mags and fag flagsI loved 1 and 2 but I guess I am not target audience.
>>750688240Nobody cares about IP because it's a shell of itself starting with 3. Yes, 3 was already bad. How many years is that?
>>750680958*Gulp* another studio closing?
>>750688926Over 15 I think.
>>750681657AAA studios aren't allowed to run without 95% fat, with the fat being useless office whores who contribute nothing but nagging and hearsay, and DEI consultants, who you have to pay $5000 per minute so they can tell you how to make your game gay and lame.
>>750681657Lost technology, please ignore the staggering success of the last brotherhood fueled alien swarm shooter that did exactly that and made a gorillion dollars
>>750681657Why not make 5 better games instead. How does it cost so much? They already have gameplay and enemies from previous games. Cut down cinematitics to minimum. It should be like making new maps for Quake. Butch lesbo in Gears is bad joke. But it would flop anyway if is cost this much. Gears 1 and 2 are best in series and cost fraction of this.
>>750689770>How does it cost so much?Paying a thousand worthless office ladies and a thousand jeets with fake credentials contributing unusable dogshit parasitizing your studio.
>>750682248>HollywoodI think this comparison may be close to the truth than you think. Hollywood economy relies a lot on spending money by paying to your own and your friends/family companies for shit like rent, catering and subcontracting. And in the end who cares that budget doubled its initial projections if you already made millions for yourself and your friends long before actual premier?We may have something like this in vidya considering how many people and third party studios/companies now work on a single AAA project.
>>750680958Why do devs make games with budgets that require them selling 10 million copies just to break even
>>750680958I remember a time decades ago where studios would have to beg, borrow and steal to get the funds and barely scrape by to make some of the best video games the world has ever seenWhile these people are given basically a blank check with no guidelines or guardrails in place to make sure the money is well spent and a product is made that can recoup the cost or make many magnitudes of money greater than the production budgetHow did these cia niggers and subversive faggots get so powerful where they don't even have handlers anymore to reign them in, is this the power of women executives and their tranny golems they employWhat is going on, because this isn't sustainable
>>750681657how am I going to launder my money then?
>>750680958Half a bil for a piece of faget propaganda. What a time to regret being alive
>>750685549Many indie devs make good games for less than 5% of what AAA costs are
>>750690205That's probably why they suck ass. Infinite budgets mean the devs don't have to worry about cutting the bullshit.
>>750680958If they'd made that shit a $15 co-op friendslop horde-mode roguelike they could have easily have made that money back.
>friend is a huge GoW fan and was really looking forward to this>nothing but silence after release
>>750680958Time to get those Knee pads ready because once again the West kneels to the East.
>>750693215>people praising mediocre games for culture war reasons reee
>>750680958Not made by straight people and by women.This right there is the proof they no longer know what they're selling and to whom.>>750684879>okBy the look of OP's Image I already can tell you it isn't.Dispite what the suites hear, 90% of "gamers" aren't homos.
>half a billion faggy looking turd.An the oversold pajjeta said nothing?
>>750681657Cool it with the anti-semitism.
>>750680958>>750681018>>750681906You guys are so stupid. You fail to take into account the millions from Game Pass and the reported 700k that bought the Premium upgrade.
>>750695870Expedition 33 was on Game Pass, it sold millions.
