In the gamers time of need we need a hero to return…. Sega make the dreamcast 2
Sonic Adventure 3 on Dreamcast 2 and the gaming industry is saved
SA3 on physical media with a paper manual, and bundle a VMU2 for Chao garden hijinks plz. Way more worth $100 than GTA6
Glad Double Fine made it out alive, kinda worried for them though. Think their last couple of games sold pretty poorly. Not their first rodeo being independent at least.
What all is even left at Microsoft now? Halo, Bethesda, and Activision?
It’s Microsoft that told them to make weird shit, that upfront profit isn’t a priority because it’ll add value to game pass. I just hope they don’t overcorrect
Which was a fine strategy on microsoft’s part really, the problem was that most of the studios they bought to make small games to be a game pass value add stopped making games.
But the new CEO’s strategy just seems to be cutting off limbs until it’s profitable again. They’re not just selling off the studios that aren’t making things.
Mojang…
Oops yeah them too. I’m not a Minecraft gamer so I forgot lol.
They also own King, the company behind mobileslop like Candy Crush
This seems kinda okay? It sucks that these studios are being dropped, but it does seem like a few of them are landing on their feet.
Microsoft was heavily mismanaging all of them anyways, so maybe the transition back to independent could help?
Still sucks for everyone involved as all this settles out, and this is almost certainly something being done to prevent the current structure from getting comfortable and unionizing…
They targeted gamers
i’ll be happy to have a non-BDS state of decay 3, provided MS isn’t still the publisher.
