    WFC and FOC sold pretty well from what I gathered and they were original takes on the IP.

    Let\'s hope we can get some GOOD games like the Cybertron ones & Devastation and not lame things like that Cyberverse XCOM thing.
    These WFTC games apparently being AAA may imply some genuine quality, for the most part.

    I know absolutely nothing about G.I joe and your idea sounds awesome. Given the limited knowledge I have about shooter games, sounds like it would fit if done right.

    And given the most accurate shooter game I've ever played is PVZ: BFN on the switch, you could feasably slap a transformer skin and could be fine, assuming you add headmasters, combiners and etc.

    Devastation isnt bad, but it isn't great either.... Postgame is trash, and story is not too good. Compared to Wfc and Foc.

    What post game? All you do is replay the story again.

    That's the point. Free roam would be much appreciated.

    Which were...a little diversion at best, and filler at worst. Also there's difficulty runs to unlock Magnus mode and stuff, and achievements.

    Devastation was made on a much smaller budget compared to that of Platinum’s main titles as well as those of the High Moon games. And as far as post-game goes, I do find the game to be much more rewarding to play on higher difficulties, both the main campaign and the challenges. Given the way Korra and TMNT, the fact that Devastation was as good as it under similar restraints is kind of a miracle

    I would consider Korra and tmnt to be outliers to an otherwise great studio. Nier Automata, Bayonetta 2 and Astral Chain shows how great they can be at making games.

    I see...I see. Nova prime as a bonus character would have been fun regardless.

    Would make sense, those games had someone new directing them while Devastation had the same director as Metal Gear Rising
