    I love how devs always go on and on about how critical the online requirement is to their game vision, how it can't be removed, then magically find a way to patch it in months later when they realize how that requirement does nothing but piss people off by forcing the 'no pausing' bit, and other unpopular decisions. As usual, it's too little, too late. The game still looks bland as hell, nothing about it sticks out or looks any different from the mass of other games that are doing the exact same thing, but better.

    I would agree that they deserve credit for pushing this update except for the fact that it's mostly stuff that should have been done ages ago. They put out a total pos game and after a year, their studio getting shut down and canceling the dlc they'd already sold to people, they managed to get the game to what most people would consider to be a minimum playable state for an online shooter. I know it's not totally Arkane's fault, but I wouldn't applaud them for finally getting the game up to where it should've been at launch on their way out the door.

      I disagree. This was their last update before finally closing down and shutting the door behind them and they implemented features that should've been in the game from day 1. Not to mention the game crashed three times in this video. Twice in a row. It's simply not good enough. It sounds harsh but if you apply this level of incompetency to other places like construction, firefighters, heart surgeons people would be up in arms "We did well with the previous fire but this time the guy forgot to bring the ladder.....we'll remember next time though!" and quite honestly some people just aren't cut out for their desired profession. Thats life. Maybe they should make games as a hobby and look for a career elsewhere

      Bro, I just tried diablo 4 since its on gamepass. Not a fan of blizzard. But surely a base-game hack n slash for free will be alright. Nope. Fiddly account link that took 15 minutes. Then had to wait in a queue to log in. No camera movement. The dumbest settings you can imagine. Makes cutscenes freeze at random points til you hit A. No click A to advance dialogue, no. Its like a dvd skipping. The skill menu is garbage. Its like zooming a webpage in to max, then trying to scroll the screen in all 4 directions to read.
      You are reminded on every login to make a new seasonal character and buy stuff.
      You can't pause the game, so inventory checking is sketchy if you aren't in town.
      Its... kinda... multiplayer? I've seen other players running around, messing up my attacks or pulling enemies towards me. There is no way to play it single player.
      But the worst is the game its self.
      It doesn't ever try to pretend its not a game. It tells you how things spawn, and what mechanics exist without lore or irony. Every event is fight mobs, fight miniboss, chest spawns.
      No attempt is made for immersion or to connect the gameplay to the story.
      It feels hollow and soulless.
      You can see every gear in the machine of this game, and theres no magic or mystery.
      Most games do a "use 10 realm crystals to unlock the godslayer sword!" type-thing. Diablo says "give us 20 bucks. Now. And you can have.... uh... i dunno, this armor thing. It looks cool, or something. Money. Now."
      And you feel it in every moment of gameplay.

      Or better yet, not buy garbage games like Redfall *or* Suicide Squad and instead save your money, save your time, save yourself the headache, and I dunno, go get a burger or something. That would be a better value, that's for sure.

    this is so sad to me. Dishonored is my favourite game of all time. Arkane was forced to make a live-service looter when their strength is in stealth single-player (even just look at the great, critically acclaimed Prey 2017). The game unsurprisingly flopped and now the studio is being shut down. As a Dishonored fan, this is soul-crushing. I'm French and when I was in uni studying to be a sound designer, my dream was to get into Arkane Lyon, that's how much I love this studio and IP. I can only hope that Arkane Lyon will develop another Dishonored now that the Austin studio is closing. I fucking hate Microsoft, man.

    It's almost NEVER the "developers" fault w/these games. If it were a smaller studio, I wouldn't have NEARLY the same level of being "critical", but they get bought out by MICROSOFT which ALLLL these studios figured they'd somehow "improve" but instead they just give "bonuses" to the people in management. So the people in the trenches, get SCREWED, while the horrendous management skates away w/all the cash 💸 and payin for articles to be made talkin about anything BUT that. I GENUINELY feel bad for the "modern developers". I'm sure there's SOME studio that treats em right, but my GOD they must be few & far between nowadays. They make em go through these "crunches" & all but ruin their lives, ESPECIALLY it they have families, but nope they just treat em like dirt and reward themselves at the top--management makes these horrible "conditions", TERRIBLE monetizations no one wants to almost EVERY game, then blame the people that are almost always NOT the "true problem" in gaming
