In the realm of developer acquisition, has anyone mentioned Iron Galaxy? I know they released a stinker with Extinction but Compulsion Games released two back to back terrible games and got acquired. I've got more faith in them working on Killer Instinct and another new IP than I do Compulsion.

I thought Contrast was pretty well received? Not my type of game though.
Whoa. I am enjoying We Happy Few quite a bit.In the realm of developer acquisition, has anyone mentioned Iron Galaxy?

I'm actually in the same boat as @Gzprime2, don't go in much for the indie titles (I got my friend pedro through gamepass but haven't played it much) so looking at MS's acquisitions doesn't give me as much hope for the future as it would for those who are into the AA and lower markets....
I'm kinda agree with you. While I'm high on their Obsidian and Undead labs acquisition, alot of these games that the rest of the studios are showing or developing have that AA/indie/small team feel. That doesn't move the needle for me. Not nearly enough to purchase a new $400/$500 console for. Now they could come out and surprise me with some huge earth shattering AAA game but it has yet to be seen.
Im rocking SoD2 now and, Jeez! That game is fun! Really fun. I hop on, thinking Ill play for a couple of hours and be on that mug for like, 3 or four. I have to pull myself away. Cant wait to see what these guys do with a healthy budget and resources.Just remember that Undead Labs and Obsidian didn't have MS money to make Outer Worlds and SoD2. I believe that either Major Nelson or Phil said that Obsidian has a AAA game in development and that Outer Worlds wasn't their AAA game.
