Why no announcements?

While the tone is for a different type of game and should be ignored. The game being 4PvE, with the premise of shrunken children in a backyard. This is the benchmark for me.
Here’s a dev vlog for a cool Xbox/PC game called Grounded

The level of feedback and engagement of those devs is something I would hope could be worked toward with the illfonic ones.

I really like your game and very much appreciate recent feedback but just look at the video above or Dbd’s vlog updates. Growing a community is an exercise in gardening, it’s hard work and learning to predict their expectations before they have them.

Nothing above is meant to read as angry, if it does my apologies. If it’s a Pub thing and not in illfonic’s control that is understandable. Perhaps someone could point out to them how the indirect competition does it.

Thanks for listening to me, figured this thread was tangential related.

Oh, yeah. I was so annoyed at Microsoft for scoring it.

That was the first dev vlog I watched, and holy shit was I ever impressed. Somebody on their team pays attention to what others have done and how to grow their metaphorical garden.
The one nice thing is, that if it does get a PS4 release we’ll be getting months of content all on that first day.

Being a PS4 owner I am somewhat biased toward getting those experience on PS4. I respect their hustle and seeing the value in a game with that aesthetic being interesting to kids and adults if it has compelling mysteries, which the game is full of.

They thought their own property was enough.

Yes they thought Halo 5 and Gears of War 5 was enough which it wasn’t, all shooters feel samey to me(except DOOM), THEY COULD OF BROUGHT BACK BANJO AND SOLD A SHIT TON BUT NOOO, generic shooter weve been releasing for years with no substantial change, Sunset Overdrive was good though. Dont get me wrong I respect both consoles I just think Xbox didnt try hard enough and was being over confident imo.

Microsoft owns the studio that created the greatest game ever and sits on it. Fuck em. I will never support Microsoft until they bring it back and make a sequel.

Rare right? Honestly with amount of 3d platformers coming back it would be stupid not to bring back Banjo and Conker, if Crash 4 is happening we should have a Banjo Threeie!!

Even better, but instead Rare was forced to make horrible kinect games and sea of theives which granted improved over time but Microsoft ruined that dev team when it was bought out.
