Why did John Romero and Cliff Bleszinski become irrelevant in

they are just idea guys

Because after Gears of War 3 / Shadow Complex everything went to shit for Xbox in general.

they made enough money

John Romero?
You mean John Carmack?
What has happened to them is what happens to any big name developer,
even Hideo and Kojima.
Let's take Jason Jones, for example.
Your success begins with a very creative title (Pathways Into Darkness),
yet you have bigger ambitions.
So then you make something where the creativity is focused and brilliant (Marathon),
and your ambitions have been met,
yet you still yearn for more.
You will eventually make some hit and misses (Myth and Oni, respectively),
but that doesn't stop the publishers from telling you to make another game (Halo).
You just don't have it in you.
So you get sloppy with the creativity,
it's less passionate and more of it is borrowed and inspired,
but this is the project that puts you on the map.
The publishers want more,
and you are intellectually bankrupt,
so you run with it (Halos 2-Reach).
Then you have a little hiatus,
Then you do what every other big name developer does:
You try to come back.
But remember: you're intellectually bankrupt (Destiny).
You can't start anew.
So it's better just to run with it and hope for the best (Destiny 2).

When you get successful and old you lose touch with what's happening, you lose your maximum drive because if it fails, well, you still have your money and family, and people are less prepared to argue against your ideas and leadership.

The once-greats 'losing their touch' cliche isn't about old people going senile, it's about the effect success has on the creative process.

Cliff Bazinga is a fucking hack who got lucky with Jazz Jackrabbit and Gears 1.
Dude's a fucking loser irl though and had to result to being a whiny little bitch on twitter and starting fights with randoms for attention after he became completely irrelvant.

I don't remember this happening. Convince me not to get Lawbreakers.

Romero developed shitty games and destroyed his name by his own incompetence.
Bleszinski just went silence, he never was so self destructive like Romero was.

>>386569512
exactly

>>386571138
What about when he went on twitter rants about nazis and how much he loves diversity agendas in games?

What about when he swore off of developing for the PC market because he hated pirates and said all PC gamers were pirates, so he went to make Gears games for Xbox until finally crawling back to shit out LawBreakers.

Watch him blame "whiny goobergator manbabies" for his game failing thanks to the forced diversity he put in, rather than his shit ability to design games.

Game has awful hero balance.
Enjoy wraith the game.

I remember when Bulletstorm was coming to PC.
They kept saying there would be a PC demo.
3 months after the release of the console demo and the bulletstorm forums were seething with anger because they kept promising the PC demo was coming even though the game was drawing near.
They ended up releasing some odd little walkabout called Duty Calls.
Just a 2 minute parody of action games that ended with a trailer for Bulletstorm.

Basically CliffyB giving a finger to PC gaming "pirates" and then sucking xbox cock.
He wonders why he's irrelevant.

Fuck CliffyB, also lawbreakers blows ass.
Played bith alpha and beta it was an absolute mess.

>>386570369
The game has like 5 or 6 gamemodes and they are all fucking bad.

>>386569118
Because Cliff is an asukafag, not a Kaworu one

>>386570252
What is George "R&R" Martin?

>>386573536
>Blitzball
Nobody played bombing run in UT 2003/04. But keep bringing this mode back, it's a good idea Cliffy!

>>386574223
The worst part is that Blitzball is the best game mode in the game. The rest of them are even fucking worse.
