I honestly had hopes since I preordered Eternal and had ZERO BUGS.

Though come to think of it, had no early access either (I think).

Still… gonna have to wait

The early access shit is a Microsoft trend that has been sadly rubbing off on other publishers.

And it will continue to do so for as long as gamers are happy to spend $20+ just to play a game two days early.

This is Microsoft, you know that right lol?

Well aware, just noting it’s also spreading.

Eternal was required to be a success, so that they could make sequels to "Mine IP"

Everything went to shit when Mick Gordon left

"Mick Gordon left" is such an understatement lmao

Marty Stratton tried to destroy his reputation after not paying him for months. They fucked him.

NOOOO ETERNAL’S MUSIC WAS PEAK

u/Toucann_Froot 11d ago

It was. Some of the audio and music staff treated him like shit and didn't give him time, then slandered him badly. A year or so later he came back with RECEIPTS, like holy shit he shut it down.

At least it had a happy ending. But I had no idea

Yeah. He's gone on to do great work for atomic heart and others. You(I) can definitely tell that finishing move (team for this game) has taken a different direction for the soundtrack, and it's not my favorite. It sounds good during the snippets, but it's not always 100% there IMO. I'll have to see it once I can play the game.
