    >Only 1 flop after acquisition
    It normally takes 3 flops before a company pulls the plug.

      Considering how disappointing Dishonored 2, Deathloop, and Prey did. This might be their last outing even if it is a decent game.

    You'd have to be terminally braindead to think it has a chance of not flopping.

    More like WHEN it flops and not IF.
    From the little gameplay we've been shown it looks horrible. They really shouldn't let Raphael Colantonio leave the company.

      I haven't really looked into the game, but even with woke bullshit you can still hope that a decent successor comes out to l4d. Otherwise, there is also anacrusis (analcrusis lol) that is in early access.

            it's extremely barebones and barely improves on the foundations of L4D. Overall worse enemies and shooting with little added mechanics. Even the dialogue is lacking despite even the key writers behind it. It feels like a proof of concept demo over an actual game.

              Frick, that sounds disappointing. I was looking forward to it that they add more to the game, do something with the coop shooter formula and the sci-fi theme. What a disappointment, considering that they could add so much with the sci fi setting.

    >Mystery meat main characters
    Yeah it's going to be shit. It's going to have awful generic weapons, annoying characters with insufferable voicelines. Basically l4d but with more Black folk, more microtransactions, and terrible characters that will be forgettable in every way. I fricking hate the modern gaming industry so much.

    God I HOPE so. Even if you actually liked the games Arkane used to make they aren't that company anymore.

    Game looks like shit and Arkane said they aren't going to make Immersive Sims anymore, so I say let them die.

      That sounds moronic, no wonder devs left and made their own studio as seen with Weird West.

    They making these games on purpose. It's not designed to be fun. It's designed to make you demoralized. They want you to live in constant fear and anxiety.

    Arkane is a great studio with terrible luck and an absolutely garbage marketing department, their best game and DLC which is prey terrible underperformed and went under the radar despite being one of their best games, while mediocre garbage like deadloop got the spotlight.
