- lbotos 3y agoI learned about the game yesterday -- it's a "last of us prequel" I thought it was a joke from Videogamedunkey: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IC9a4Dkbq-g https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IC9a4Dkbq-g (a comedic, but respected game reviewer) Basically seems like the game is super boring and nobody likes it -- games studio is folding.
- neogodless 3y agoTo be clear, "Last Of Us prequel" is in quotes because it's not connected in anyway, but they would have loved for video game buyers to associate the two... https://www.gamingbible.com/news/the-day-before-under-fire-ripping-off-tlou-701432-20230206 https://www.gamingbible.com/news/the-day-before-under-fire-r...
- red-iron-pine 3y agoLow-to-Mid tier shovelware company hypes up a game. They made and sold mostly crap games and now this is their time to stop producing slop and make something that stands out. They hype it up... but then it got released a few days ago, and it is crap. Scam? Genuine attempt that failed, but they had to publish? Who knows, but unlike some games that got hyped -- and later turned out good / got improvements -- this company just folded, meaning that it'll never get better. For example No Man's Sky was hyped but when released was terrible -- but got better -- and Cyberpunk 2077 had a lot of problems but recently saw several patches and DLC (and is pretty awesome). Lotta hype, lotta disappointment, but the developers stayed at it and made it good.
