Now we pivot to “but the pandemic” is that why all microsofts studios are having development troubles? :jbhmm:

Enjoy perfect dark 2026 by tomb raider devs breh :russ:
:mjlol: goal post shifted.


You the one said they are incompetent in making a game. I simply provided the fact that they were created in 2018, showed of concept in 2020, and in 2022 yall expecting a full game and or close to it being ready as if they have projects, assets and other things already in place.

They didn't outsource the creation/development of the actual game like what is happening here with CD. You're just playing dumb now. I understand why, but it's a bad look. And it hilarious and sad.
They clearly did. If ND only has around ~300 employees and like 1300 people worked on it then who really made the game :ohhh:

If the initiative never even had more than like 30 employees, why would they go out and try to hire 100s of people probably lots of them from CD instead of just bringing on the entire team which is very familiar with working with the Head of the studio already?

Y’all just make up these arbitrary narratives to spread a negative spin to everything about xbox.

It’s pitiful at this point. :smh:

Thats why i said you’re arguing with a stan base that is starting at 0. It really doesn’t matter if its true or not they have nothign to lose by lying or pretending they don’t see it.

They know damn well no other AAA studio has completely outsourced the development of their game to a brand new studio :mjlol:

Naughty dog is the main studio developing their games which is why you got reports of crunch from them.

The initiative isn’t even working on this game anymore it’s 100% crystal dynamics with their own dozens of support studios

Sony had a studio that pretty much exclusively worked that way

:ohhh:

Yea, it's a waste of time arguing with them. When they're posting articles that actually undermine the point they're trying to make, but still continue on as if they don't, then there's nothing left to say. You can't reason through that kind of delusion.

The Initiative was supposed to be their premier AAAA studio to rival all others. They touted poaching talent from all the big studios and in the end, they imploded. There was a mass exodus and they had to bring another studio to salvage development. I guess that's one way MS is innovating though.
