I feel like when Arkane Austin and Lyon are working together, you get games like Dishonored and Prey. Seems to me that Deathloop and Redfall are the result of each studio trying to become solely independent of the other along with incorporating multiplayer elements and a general lack of direction. Effectively not keeping each other in check resulted in ideas thrown into the game where they didn't belong that never get peer reviewed. In Redfall's case it feels like it was being developed as a Live service multiplayer game by Austin while Lyon was off toying around with Deathloop and seeing if they could push out something to hold people over until their Redfall cash cow came in (see early leaked screenshots of Redfall in pre-Alpha where there's a tab in the main menu that literally said "Micro-Transaction Store"). Obviously with so many live service failures its like the game had to be re-tooled with the MTX removed and Arkane Microsoft Bethesda or whoever just said to finish it as fast as possible since it wouldn't be a live service money-maker anymore. What we received was merely the pushed out afterbirth of a game that they knew would fail. That's all my theory at least.

Why'd you mention deathloop?? Literally on par with previous Arkane games
So my theory about this game is that it went through multiple direction changes over the course of its development and never really figured out what it wanted to be in terms of gameplay until very very late, which gave the team less time to iron out a lot of the fundamental issues and optimize the game before launch. A lot of the promotional material and early trailers seem to sell this game as something akin to Dying Light with massive enemy populations and a big open world to explore with plenty of side missions. In practice though it seems to be just a cookie cutter looter shooter with a mission table. Even with all the graphical issues and the... weird gameplay design choices, I feel like this game could still be great with a little bit of TLC and A LOT of dedication... It's now just a matter of whether Bethesda and Arkane are prepared to put in the resources to fix it or if they will just write it off as a failure and move on... EDIT: It would seem that Microsoft has announced that they are committed to seeing Redfall through and fixing it so... here's hoping they listen to community feedback and take the game to a state that it SHOULD have been in on release or maybe even better.

Tried multiplayer with some friends. The safehouse in the fire station loaded in before we even cleared the area and killed the vampire. So we were stuck unable to pull out our guns or melee while the vampire was just in the air, frozen and floating. Took us playing separately to figure out what had gone wrong. My roommate almost broke his laptop from how frustrated he was about the situation
The weird thing about redfalls cutscenes is that microsoft studios has done it well before. They put out one of those telltale like story games where nothing was animated in motion and it looked and felt just fine to me. They know when it works, so what made them think it would be received well in such a tonally opposite game?

If, at launch, Starfield is even close to the state that Redfall is right now, Xbox is over.

It’s not worth gamepass for that especially when most of those games you’re going to play once or twice and then stop excluding cod and overwatch etc. But again, spending 120-180 a year just for a few games every year when you can just buy them and never have to pay again is dumb asf. For gamepass to be worth it, IT NEEDS a good library of good games that are exclusive to it or that are good in general. Not just copy and paste cod and overwatch 2 which is a ftp game btw lol.

Arkane is made up of two studios (Austin (Prey) and Lyon (Dishonored 2)) and Lyon were the ones behind Deathloop while Austin put out Redfall. Hence why it doesn't seem like many lessons were learned from Deathloop, it was two different studios under the same Arkane banner. But it does make this release hurt even more. Dishonored 2 and Prey were both phenomenal games, with REALLY amazing amounts of focus, creativity and polish. Both studios, having worked together to make Dishonored 1, really did some magic to make those two games simultaneously and to a really, really high standard. But they didn't sell as well as ZeniMax wanted, so it doesn't seem like we're going to see the best of Arkane for a long time. Redfall and Deathloop are the results. Like Deathloop was originally a Mooncrash style expansion that got turned into a full-game. And Redfall being what it is kinda feels like more of the "Make a big game with as few assets as possible" mentality. It's highly representative of a crash in standards and it's killing insanely talented studios. Arkane know how to make games, amazing games and clearly something is going seriously wrong at the top. Edit: A note on the director, it was Harvey Smith (Deus Ex (2000) AND all of Dishonored!) Seriously, Google him if you don't recognise the name, he is a VERY competent director and has been in charge of the Lyon studio since Dishonored 1 and has been with Arkane even longer than that in a leadership capacity. Seriously, something has gone very wrong between Deathloop and Redfall.

Yes, and that something is Bethesda's management during the 2018-2020 period. Prey and Dishonored 2 weren't as successful as they hoped. So they asked for more mainstream games from Arkane which ended up being Deathloop and Redfall. Hopefully they are now going back to form. With Microsoft's backing, I don't believe it is necessary to worry about the financials.

Especially because Deus Ex fans tend to have pretty high standards for what they expect in immersive sims (I think that’s mostly because the bar was just set so unbelievably high by the first game.) But Harvey Smith was also the creative director of Dishonored 2, which I actually preferred to the original in many ways. Especially as an immersive sim. But alongside Prey, I definitely think that was when Arkane hit their creative peak with both of their studios. Both Prey and Dishonored 2 just had so much creativity and ambition behind them both and a publisher that let them polish those games to an absurd degree. They both deserved more contemporary recognition.

When a game release is rushed, it's because the studio/publisher/shareholders can't delay it any more because they fear it will impact their profit margin (more dev time = more money put into the dev cycle = less profit). But a bunch of other reasons can lead to that, for example no good release date later in the year, or deals with other companies for merchandising, or other contractual obligations. Long story short: No, people's expectations and outrage rarely come into consideration when delaying a game. It's all down to business decisions based on objective data like what other games are coming out and how much money the game is expected to make versus how much it cost.
On the plus side, if you're curious as to how truly bad Redfall can look, try playing it on Steam Deck. Oh, it runs fine, I can lock the framerate at thirty with FSR applied, but the end result is muddled and long-range firefights (my personal bread and butter) are mostly illegible. I'm shooting at jerking pixels on my screen and have to sort of hope that it's actually an NPC and not just some moving part of the scenery. Things are much improved at mid and close ranges, but I've never personally enjoyed playing shooters while relying primarily on shotguns.
The very first notion of trouble I had with this game was at 2:33 That suspended water along that wall and in the corner. I thought, hehe I wonder if I can crouch in that water and blub blub and watch my screen go all wet but instead....you walk up the water blob like it's a solid slope
If rumours about the original founders and most of the team responsible for the classic Arkane games leaving the company sometime between PREY and Deathloop it would explain this drastic decline in quality. The talent that made this studio so great simply isn't there anymore.

Great video, thanks for the info! A part of me still wonders if all these “suboptimal” releases as of late are tied to development time lost during the pandemic. Having been subject to many a corporate project timeline, this has the feel of releasing near schedule, quality be damned, since there’s corporate milestone’s/goals that need to be hit. And when you’ve got your corporate overlords breathing down your neck, you submit what you’ve got and move on. Timeline’s can only be pushed so far. It sucks, and it’s bad for business, but so is missing your next year’s Q1 deadlines. Big business and art, oil and water.

@Cezar Stefan 'SEGHTER' Jucan 🇹🇩 the gamepass model for one. Quantity over quality. When studios have to sell their games to make money, their incentive is to make the best game possible so more people will buy it. They make a great game, they make a lot of money. Simple. With gamepass, the incentive is to give you the cheapest game they can get by with. Like Netflix has done for TV and Movies. The second big reason is King. King is the part of AB I think Microsoft is REALLY interested in. They've made all these garbage mobile games that nickel and dime people with predatory tactics .They've made billions doing it. If Microsoft isn't going to sell their games for profit, introducing these predatory practices designed to make you spend money is the next step. Microtransactions into trash games that are addictive is a great way to make money. Which is what this merger is all about. Then, once Microsoft starts raking in all this money from zombies that play this garbage, it's gonna put pressure on all these publishers, like Sony for example, who make high-quality single player experiences with no microtransactions, to try and compete. The only way to compete with mobile game tactics are to implement them. If Sony caves to the pressure from investors, then the smaller publishers have no chance. Then, in a few years, every game is just a cheap cash grab, live service, or full of microtransactions.

Even then, not the killer app that the Xbox brand needs.
The checkerboarding is unreals dithered translucency, it's a cheaper way to do translucent surfaces instead of using a blend mode (basically just draw a bunch of dots on top of a surface instead of taking the colour of the pixel underneath and blending it with the semitransparent texture). It's often used for performance reasons.
Changing fidelity when sprinting is actually logical, because you are moving and for a smooth running experience they drop down textures hoping that you won't be looking into those trees on horizon. The problem is is that it still kinda obvious because they only have 2 states - the blob and full texture, nothing in between.
It's sad to see this happening to arkane, prey and the dishonored games are so good.

@@Rodrigo-rr6ym not op but i would say that 60 series GPUs are the true mid tier gaming experience. The 1070 is certainly more in line with the realm of budget cards now, but it launched targeted at being budget 1440p. The newest console generation will often render games in 1440p and upscale to 4k, or something along those lines, and the 3060 itself also can quite easily do 1440p, so i feel there's some level of feature set connection between consoles and 30 series. So I would say it goes sort of like this; Budget Gaming; cut down consoles, handhelds, & sub-50 series gpus Entry Level Gaming; Entry Level consoles, 50 series gpus Mid-Tier Gaming; Flagship consoles, 60 series gpus High End Gaming; 70 Series Enthusiast Gaming: 80 series+ EDIT: To respond to your point specifically, the 3060 basically has the same performance as a 1080, just with some RT cores.

My theories... 1) most likely scenario. Arkane has lost almost all it's senior staff and creative leads. It is without direction. Deathloop atleast had direction before key figures left but this had none. 2)possible other scenario: this was a project that was not a prioty and only done to sure up the studio to assist with the zenimax sale. During development of fallout 4 Arkane hired a lot of multi-player focused devs. Deathloop concelt impressed Sony (which suggests Sony may have considered buying zenimax) and they got a timed exclusive. Either redfall was made to show off to Sony, made by request but not signed, or they passed. Regardless it's clear once Microsoft acquired them no one gave a shit about it and resources were cut. 2A)This means a skeleton crew continued development on the project and Microsoft okaydd them working on another one the devs are more excited about. 2B) some outside developer or even a QA studio finished development and none of Arkane was really invovled after a milestone 2C)two people in a basement finished the game. 3)The unlikely one: Respawn and Arkane are huge Zelda simps and purposely ruined their games so botw2's frame rate would look amazing by comparison.

The issue with the AI could be because its the very beginning of the game, but I definitely get the immediate frustration over that.

Game developer here solving the mystery of the tree. In games when you sprint, the camera properties usually change to denotate speed. These changes can include the position or field of view. I bet that the sprint camera settings have a different distance for LOD (level of detail - technique used to render lower resolution meshes for objects that are far away from the player) such that the distance to the tree falls into a lower level of detail threshold.

Just wondering if the long frametimes you were seeing on PC is in part because you turned on frame generation?
I think what might happen with the running and lower LOD is maybe an optimisation for the lower memory of the Xbox Series S. If you go too fast, you load in stuff faster and take more memory to do so. So by making the running change the LOD distance, it can help in the loading in memory the assets. That's just a guess.
