You just want to play it.

The Bethesda conference was awesome because you could see the exact line in the audience between the clapping superfans up front and the stone faced people in the back.

Plus all the other garbage.

It also takes time to, you know, develop first party games something that Microsoft hasn't really been doing since like 2008 so they had to also squeeze a section in of "we're fixing this, promise" so they're doing what they can but laaaaaffo they're like 4 years behind still.

I still laugh that the same guy was allowed to gently caress up the PS3 completely then go over and gently caress up the Bone completely.

Every studio they bought just shipped a game. (4 out of five of them on xbox exclusively already to giant apathy and bullshit engagement stats)

3 of the five are still supporting their game long term and wont start anything right away.

it will be 2021-2022 before any of these (except the forza factory) ship a game

Thats why they're still 4 years behind. It's fine to scoop up game studios with records, but if you've got portfolio gaps you need to be doing more.

Like not buying IO interactive is loving bizarre.

That's not counting any of those studios getting "rebranded", losing all their talent, or being dismantled outright because of internal mismanagement (eg; Scalebound).

The simple hard truth is that exclusives dictate which console will actually sell to general consumers. If they both have good exclusives, both will sell in decent quantities. The XBOne does not, so the PS4 just walks away with most multi-platform title purchases as well as exclusives.

Oh haha. We're on the same page; Microsoft is making half of the correct steps to fix the problem but chose the one that results in even more dead time on this console life-span.

If anything I take this E3 as a "we've fully and completely given up on the Bone"

Based on the name when they announced it I was assuming it was a multi-studio thing where that guy would nurture like, three different projects in MS to try and build different studios but then it wasn't so welp who gives a poo poo till I can see some product.

Oh my god I can't believe I didn't realize that's what the streaming is actually for. This conference is straight up "we are laying the groundwork for the Bone 2, enjoy "

I'm surprised there isn't another Killer Instinct rumored to be spinning up. The game as far as I'm aware did ok and its a true Microsoft IP.

The streaming is absolutely just so they can sell a top of the line expensive console in small volume every other year for people that demand zero latency while not losing legacy owners from their service and bringing in mobile/pc on top.

Maaaan, I'm actually excited for Fallout 76 but only because it can be offline if you want.

They said there was a story and missions but there's no way it's structured the same as previous games.
There's still so many unanswered questions but I'm super hype for these good, gross monsters.

Absolutely. It's going to be them touting that every game they release is now forwards compatible. Buy Gears 6? Your original Bone can play it as long as you're online.

Are there drivers for Bonetrollers to connect to iPhones through blutooth?

That demo didn't show VATS once so that should probably indicate basically everything about the game to you.

The "no server list" thing seems like it can backfire if you keep getting matched into a server where someone is harassing you.

You can play it solo in the same way you can play any of these open world survival games solo, presumably.

Yeah. If you think any care has been put into making it single-player friendly rather than "well, technically you can play it single player" you're deluding yourself based on the info we have at hand.

I meant out of Todd's mouth or in any of the gameplay things that popped up. The "revenge" and such that popped up also didn't show XP, it just showed some special currency which I assume is what meta-progression is tied to.
