Remedy, you could have sold to Microsoft if you’re going to make their mistakes anyway. Control is one of my favorite games ever, but its assets are not all that, especially once you remove the central third-person figure. If I wanted to play a live service game, I’d play Deep Rock Galactic (much better gameplay, deformable terrain, no-FOMO seasons) or Helldivers 2 (shit monetization but it’s got mortar turrets that flong shit in a parabolic arc that never gets old). Nota bene: when I see shit like “watch three hours of Twitch to get this skin”, I automatically despise your game. I hope you haven’t overextended and this turd is really cobbled together quickly from textures and models you had lying around.
Damn you actually just reminded me that Enshrouded, an open world survival game that came out in early access earlier this year, has already had a couple twitch “events” where they give “exclusive” armors and gear to the people who watch.
I mean, sure there’s all the other cool stuff already actually in the game, but it does leave a bad taste in my mouth whenever I see it.
