Cancels their first guaranteed hit exclusive outside of Halo, Gears, and Forza in Gen 8

Absolutely was. You wouldn't know though. These devs bragging about wasting Microsofts money is real. They just throw money at at them and let them do their thing.

Even if it looked weird it’s a kamiya game and he has never made a sticker so I had faith it’d turn out more interesting. It’s the only game that’s ever even made me jealous of Xbox and they fucked up canceling it since I’m sure a lot of people felt it just like those that whined about bayo 2

this

It's rumored that Platy kept showing Microshit really slow progress reports after getting cash for signing onto the project. This forced Micropenis to pretty much cancel the contract since they needed it early in the Xbox One's life, not midway. Platinum used that money to fund their other games and rubbed it in by making a Switch exclusive title.
I feel alittle bad for Microsoft but this is what happens when your contracts aren't (metaphorically) written on marble stones.

This. I was surprised it got cancelled because Xbox was and still is hurting for new worthwhile exclusives.

>Don'to worry Phir san. We wirr finish game very soon. What? No we don't use money for Switch excrusive.

Depends what you call a "hit". Zig Forums says bloodborne is Sony's greatest game of all time (sold 3 million) but games like HZD are failures (sold 10+ million). Ask Sony when they last thought about bloodborne. Like, at all. Why do you think Scalebound would be any different? Vet IP multiplatform DMC5 sold about 3 million. I doubt Microsoft could have given a shit.

これらのアメリカの豚を奪いましょう
Oh yesu yesu Phil-san, our bossu on phone terls us we need rittle bit more America dorras and rittle bit more time

Don't forget Stormlands they canned that for no reason too

I thought it could sell at least 2 million easily

idk why people jerk this game and platinum off so hard. Over rated as fuck.

thats still an active VR game though

Kamiya is the japanese Tim Schafer, a fucking hack that once did something great and now he can design for shit while eating away the budget.

What the fuck is going on with this? Is it in development hell or what?

How could they have NOT cancelled this?

And this rumor was started here on Zig Forums by people who, for some bizarre reason, have an axe to grind against Platinum. The fact that you had to add in that they supposedly used money to make a Switch exclusive is all I need to see to know it's just an anti-Platinum shitpost, so fuck off, retard.

During development of Scalebound they also had like 5 other projects they worked on lmao. They around 180 employees total during that time so imagine working on a AAA new IP for completly new hardware while also doing 5 other games one of that was also pretty big project like Nier Automata lol. I aint a Microshit fan and dont care about No Games Box but objectively speaking if you consider shit like above im sure it was mostly Platinum at fault when it comes to that project.

And I'm sure it was MS trying to micromanage the game's design despite having Kamiya at the helm. There's no fucking way four player co-op was his idea, so he put it in and made sure the whole world saw how fucking terrible it was, and then MS was probably like "can we get someone else on this project" and were told "no" so they bailed. MS does shit like this, always has, but why they would hire Platinum and specifically Kamiya only to try to tell them how to make the game is fucking stupid and totally in-line with how they conduct business. People who blame Plat don't actually play any of these games, Kamiya has, not once, made a bad game, and he wasn't going to start with Scalebound.

bump for this
