Very likely will be a launch game for MS's new handheld console.

Hopefully it will launch on Steam ex aequo.

The profit or loss of Avowed, next to the hundreds of billions of dollars in revenue that Microsoft brings in in a year, hardly matters to investors

*Looks at tango, arkane and the rest of the cemetery.

Yes, every time anyone at MS said the engagement and GP users was amazing it was totally true. Lets believe that and appreciate how normal it is to give interviews to bloomberg saying, "we totally didn't fail our objectives with this mediocre piece of media".

Time is on my side, I'll just save this interaction.

Then if and when you revisit it, you can see a reminder here that the problem here all along is that you're assuming you know it failed off of bonkers reasoning, not that you may have guessed right. You just criticized those dummies over AC Shadows, and here you are doing the same thing.

You calling something bonkers doesn't void the fact that a demonstrably cheaper game from the same developer was far more reaching and generated more engagement than the halo product from the same stable that got a 3D ad in times square. Everything else is cope.

I find it amusing that you're using the Conway "alternative facts" defense in the same breath you compare me to the AC shadows detractors. Projection for the win I guess.
