      @@pastordonkoh7692 Completely agree. My biggest fear is that Halo infinite (clue in the title) will be some pointless open world live service thing with a road map.
      Halo's strengths were in it's tightly scripted and endlessly replayable campaigns and the multiplayer. But it worked because it kept them very separate. This is where Bung-hole fell on their arses with Destiny (by which I don't mean player base, but attitude- So many d2 players are just angry, disappointed bastards, myself included until I gave up and uninstalled the piece of shit), and I am honestly expecting 343 to fall into the same trap.

      Last year EA made 5.5 Billion dollars. I think from there point of view. destroying a number of entire studios and have some epic failures, its all worth it as the bottom line sees them make profits other studios can only dream of.

      Looking at the sales of games like Anthem, Battlefield 5 and Dead Space 3 they most likely understood that jeopardizing their own franchises makes them lose capital.

    Back then when Andromeda bombed I knew Anthem would be no different, yet people kept saying to be hopeful. I find these types of game (online shooters) to be bland in general, so it's a personal take, but even so I couldn't see the appeal behind the concept. The fact that everyone was just "hmmm, yea dunno" when the team came up with ideas for a more interesting world and story says a lot.

      Probably because the gaming market has already set the standard for shooter genres. The market has already oversaturated with online shooters when Anthem released, all of them has better gameplay and loot system that sets the standard for such genres, which Anthem didn' met
      I also think that in general, story-driven games is usually unfit to have online co-op (see how COD: World a War and Dead Space 3 turned out). You stay for either the story or the multiplayer, its hard to be personally invested in story when you play multiplayer, especially when the purpose to play is just to get loot instead of watching the story unfolds

Also its a fucking STAR WARS. Fans of star wars would have bought it anyway. Anthem on the other is a no name shit, with no lore, HUGE technical problems, HUGE gameplay problems and no content at all. So dont compare the two. Same as with bethesda games like elder scrolls and fallout. They are buggy and broken as fuck, but its fucking elder scrolls, people will buy it anyway. I mean fallout 76 is still alive somehow and its a broken, cash grab shit. Anthem has nothing going for it to stay alive. No fans so basically its dead. Also barely anyone still works on the game. As for no mans sky, they had big lawsuits coming their way so they had to add most of the things they promised. Its different when you are ubisoft, ea or whatever, you are big guy and lawsuits dont mean anything and end up nowhere. Developers of no mans sky on other hand are indie studio and lawsuits would hit them super hard. Probably some of them would actually end up in jail. So no, Anthem is not going anywhere.

Treavel back 10 years and ask google "How can i programm a game?" or "What game engine to choose?" you willl propably come up with Cry, UDK, Unity - besides that there were highly proprietary solutions that lacked the featureset of the big three (like hero engine) and the way to just pick libs or basis like ioquake3 or OGRE and start your own engine. Frostbite is a Battlefield Engine and just only that, everything else besides perfectly adjusting Frostbite to the game and cutting everything else off defies its main purpose: opimization. The big three are not optimized, look at the resource usage compared between FB games and UE4 for example (not to say you could not do it, you just wont because why should you lol). Frostbite should have never been used outside of DICE. It was EA that made it available but they are not to blame, the studios decided for themselves. That is why i had a hard laugh, they failed at the very same quesion that started my career: "What engine should i use".

    I got this game at launch and it honestly wasn’t too bad, to me it’s one of those games that needs friends to be fun. I finished the game and enjoyed it but yes the end game content is lacking. I’m hoping with anthem 2.0 a lot will be fixed and redone.

    When's the last time Bioware actually made anything worth playing at all? Years of pure shite and unfortunately gonna have to limit my excitement for the Mass Effect Remasters as they will likely ship broken and buggy as hell considering Biowares YEARS of incapability to produce a solid game for release.

      Yeah, I have a few friends who are excited for the Mass Effect trilogy. I just tell them it's the same team that made Andromeda. I still have the Old Mass Effect games since there not that old and I'll just play them. Companies are remaking games that are like 10 years old. Does there need to be a remake already? The games were in 1080 P.

      None of the original trilogy ran native 1080p on consoles. The native resolution was 720p on both ps3 and 360. The texture resolution was also 720p including the pc version. The remasters clearly have new higher internal resolutions for textures and higher native resolutions for image quality. They look like shit even on a pc running 4k. Muddy textures everywhere. The games don't hold up as well as other games released around the same time.

      @@aaronsmith7143 You can mod the originals on PC to 4k textures and they look and run great in my opinion. There's even mods to upscale the cut-scene videos. There's a step by step guide on the game's Steam page. Un-modded, yes, they look rough, but with the fan's love and mods, they look really good.
