That’s right, Cliffy B. has now gone from creating some of the more creative and enjoyable 7th-generation shooters with Microsoft and EA to working with the people that brought youMapleStoryandCombat Armsto create a free-to-play science fiction arena shooter. At least he’s taking a great stance by not releasing a CG trailershowing fake gameplay. Whenever companies do that (it’s becomingever popular) it becomes frustrating as someone who wants to view the authentic product.
Either way, even if I disagree with the prospects, props go out to Boss Key Productions and Cliff Bleszinksi for putting himself on the line to create something that he wanted to do with his own company. Even ifBlueStreakwill be published by the people who pioneered microtransactions, at least it’s another dream accomplished. More than many can say.
