Since he was the game’s director, I think that’s messed up. Yes, Futatsugi didn’t even know about it until they told him shortly before the release of the game (in a hotel at E3). They should have just released it for the 360, and maybe people wouldn’t have complained so much.Ĭorrectly if I’m wrong, but I’m quite sure that it was Microsoft’s decision to cancel the 360 release in favour of the XBOne. When you abruptly alter the development course of a highly anticipated title, you risk the chance of ruining it entirely. Microsoft has essentially made the same mistake with Azurik: Rize of Perathia and Halo1 (although the latter didn’t suffer much bad review, but almost didn’t ship). I used to do this dirty job, and I learned a lot about what it takes to have a game qualify to be on a Microsoft console.Ĭorrectly if I’m wrong, but I’m quite sure that it was Microsoft’s decision to cancel the 360 release in favour of the XBOne. I’m not saying they couldn’t have, but there’s more to a game’s development cycle than the gfx, like the rigorous certification process. Grounding clearly didn’t have the time to totally redesign the visual assets and what not, because the time frame that the game was initially going to be released, then abruptly shifted gears towards becoming an XBOne launch title isn’t enough time to “magically” create a totally new title with the “next gen” appeal. I am a Direct3D programmer, and I can tell you right now, that switching from Direct3D9 to Direct3D11 doesn’t give you an instant boost gfx wise. What I believe people (especially the lame azzed and technically uninclined reviews) fail to realize is that when porting a game over to a last generation console to a current gen console doesn’t automatically give you a “graphics upgrade”. I’m not sure why people expect better graphics than what it has. Continued abuse of our services will cause your IP address to be blocked indefinitely.Well, it’s a $20.00 game.
