I don’t get why? It’s a great game

I’m a sub to their services and use it for travel and getting UK shows on BBC that don’t come to the US. Works great and no complaints.

It’s a fun game but an ultra competitive market. Either show you’re in it for the long haul or most players will never give you a chance.

I don’t think folks expect to restart when the pre-order perk is 3-days early access… But we live in a world with day one patches on every single game too 🙃

If they were actually concerned about it, Valve could have done real NDA’s and/or plastered the build info and user name on-screen like most game tests. They’ve done it in the past so I assume this was a calculated risk/choice.

Worked for Blizzard before all the Xbox layoffs… The confusing actions are mainly because the gaming division is now it’s own company within Microsoft and responsible for its budget and making revenue for the first time in XBOX’s history. The leadership level all got promotions and new titles, they shared new org charts to everyone, and then the layoffs and closures began almost immediately. It’s no longer about making their user base grow but about making money so expect their games everywhere and to see Game Pass lose features and raise prices.

I was paying for it at a legacy price still but that gets wiped out with this I guess. Canceled.

Just the idea/concept felt off… someone should have asked why we need a whole game about a side-character that no one asked for

Ooof… sad for all those devs, but wow was that game was a mistake from the start

I’m not even sure what mine could be compared to… maybe one of those hot wheels you pull back to wind up
