Not sure if it’s a problem with the game or Microsoft, but I’ve run into that issue before with several games in the past. Have you tried rebooting your system and doing it again?

I know for older generation consoles and PC, you could download a mule save file, usually those have a shitload of items and junk. Since you should have gotten the achievement, could always try that instead of redoing the whole ass game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigBossBalrog Posted June 1, 2023 Share Posted June 1, 2023 https://www.ign.com/articles/redfalls-development-was-reportedly-so-troubled-that-devs-hoped-microsoft-would-cancel-it?utm_campaign=trueAnthem%3A Trending Content&utm_medium=trueAnthem&utm_source=facebook&fbclid=IwAR1G2CaKEabZMWasxsMIEhHDu3GcgRNXPMFZ8TgWrIdFBShPA8KYVynJ5f0 This has my terrified for some of the other Microsoft devs;Bloomberg just released a report on Redfall and it's pretty insane. -Only 30 percent of the people who made Prey are still at Arkane (Dishonored its even less), alot of the manpower are, like with 343, contract workers. Main reason they left? Redfall's devolopment. (Yes Redfall has DECIMATED Arkane, it's a gutted shadow of its former self) -Zenimax got the ball rolling on fucking everything up before Microsoft got involved, midway through pre-production, they made them change focus to multiplayer because there was an internal pivot (Which went hand in hand with Fallout 76) -Microsoft gave them super vague goals and NO oversight; all they said was they wanted a profitable Gaas game and nothing else mattered. -Got so bad, devs were reportedly begging to CANCEL the game outright because they couldn't see things improving. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Based on the article, it’s hard to blame Microsoft considering all they did was purchase Arkane’s shit storm and tell them to get through it. They didn’t fix anything, but they weren’t the cause of the problems either. Arkane deserve some of the blame too, but it’s hard to imagine working on one project and then being forced to completely change it midway through your work. If anything, this confirms that people were right about Microsoft taking a more hands-off approach with their new acquisitions. That might a bad thing when the games are already crap (like Redfall), but if they are good (like Avowed, hopefully), then Microsoft probably won’t mess it up. * Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was disappointed in Pillars 2, but color me interested. Almost finished with book 2 of the Prince of Thorns series. So far, it is holding up to my "maybe the best and certainly one of the best fantasy series I've read" assessment. I plan to finish the trilogy listening to the audiobooks.

I have the Scribd app which is cheaper than Audible. They only had the first two books in the series, so I had to reboot my Audible account to get the third.

If it's like Doom, I know there isn't alot of displays on how the Warhammer 40k setting is literally thousands of books, hundred of factions three dozen separate tabletop games, millions of pages of lore, and a hundred video games but are you enjoying the setting?

The Good Doctor Posted June 2, 2023 Author Share Posted June 2, 2023 It does look neat, though. I like the art direction for pretty much everything related to the Imperium, and all the techno-Latin religious terminology is both hilarious and badass. But this definitely ain’t a game you play to learn about the lore. * Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheCzarsHussar Posted June 2, 2023 Share Posted June 2, 2023 @The Good Doctor Once they finally optimize the game, you should give Warhammer: Darktide a go. The soundtrack, setting, and gameplay is top of the line. You can create four characters, one being a zealot warrior priest, insane warp-magic using wizard (who's staves and energy swords are my favorite weapons), grizzled veteran guardsman who is completely normal but happens to be an absolute badass, and a sanctioned mutant human called an Ogryn; think if Super Mutants were accepted and armed by the brotherhood because they're too stupid to be disloyal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigBossBalrog Posted June 2, 2023 Share Posted June 2, 2023 I think Rogue Trader would suit him more. A Rogue Trader is, to put it short, a Space Privateer given a writ of authority that lets them do usually illegal stuff like trade with Xenos and raid. The people who did the Pathfinder games are making it, and it's coming out in a couple of months. Fully featured old school RPG that are similar to Pillars of Eternity. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigBossBalrog Posted June 2, 2023 Share Posted June 2, 2023 4 hours ago, The Good Doctor said: Aren’t WH and WH40K completely different settings? They have three now; Warhammer Fantasy, Warhammer Age of Sigmar, and Warhammer 40k. Darktide is 40k, but you play as Imperial Guard. The Imperial Guard is another faction within the Imperium (there's a ton of them), made up of mostly normal humans, that compose the bulk of the billions of humans who are the Bulwark of humanity (In contrast to the decidedly non human, and super elite Astartes, the Space Marines). Essentially your given a flak jacket from World War 2, a lazgun (which people call flashlight), and told to shoot at the demons before you die in the hundreds of thousands in a single battle to take a hill (Though they have plenty of elite units and fucking TANKS up the wazzo) The game is super flavorful, but unfortunately , despite literally having one of the best core shooting experiences (it plays like a dream); the systems around it are infamously borked, and the game doesn't have enough content, so I wouldn't recommend it till it gets its relaunch on Xbox later. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
