https://www.ign.com/articles/marvels-avengers-hasnt-recouped-its-development-costs-yet
Marvel's Avengers sales have been lower than expected, and the game hasn't yet recouped its development costs, leading to an estimated 7 billion (approximately $67 million USD) operating loss in Square Enix's HD Games segment during the last financial quarter. --- The pamphlet on First Life contains 93 lies and 7 truths.

Meanwhile, Genshin Impact was made with the same budget ( 100 million) and recouped its development costs within 2 weeks, and is now printing money for its Developer lol

That said, good. I hope this teaches game companies not to half-ass a product and slap in GaaS as a solution to their sloppy as hell dev practices --- Not removing this until Mega Man 64 is released on the Wii Virtual Console. Started on: 12/1/2009 https://imgur.com/mPvcy ... Copied to Clipboard!

Good news. Same thing needs to happen with 2K and their shitty, yearly releases. Yeah but those require almost no money to make because it's just rereleased every year ... Copied to Clipboard!

Like I feel bad for the rank and file folks who worked on it Yeah, kinda feel the same way. I tried the free beta and it didn't feel satisfying enough to want to play, and I'm not the type of person to want to play a game on a daily basis for lootboxes and mtx shit. Crystal Dynamics is a good developer but this project idea was doomed from the start. --- Game collection: http://www.backloggery.com/bakonbitz Gaming channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwVQm69J7bGScbv3_50C0dA ...

Almost like they designed it from the ground up to generate micro-transaction revenue and they forgot to make the actual gameplay varied and interesting.
Remember when The Incredible Hulk: Ultimate Destruction came out, and it was fucking rad, and everybody loved it? Hell, remember when Spider-Man for the PS4 came out, was fucking rad, and everybody loved it? It's like games that are developed to be fun are always going to be better than games that were made as frameworks to rake in long-term "recurrent consumer spending." When a game is designed from the ground up to make money, it's gonna have a really high chance of scaring off its audience long before they start turning a profit. Fun game first, monetization later. --- I write Naruto Fanfiction. But I am definitely not a furry. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Fun game first, monetization later. Yeah, exactly. I'm willing to throw money at a game I really like, both for the experience and to support the dev. But I'm not going to burn money in hopes that a game will eventually be fun. --- "Can't wait to count out your coin!" -- Bethesda, 2018 ... Copied to Clipboard!
