All the Microsoft chine first party games feel sort of “off” like they decided to try to cheap out on the production values or something.
I can put my finger on exactly what elements make them feel cheaply done, but they always have this sort of shovelware quality to things that aren’t central to the game play.
Like the voice acting is bad, the menus are ugly, the interface kind of sucks, etc.
Sony 1st party stuff is just very safe and sort of uninteresting. Lots of graphical spectacle over so-so games. In truth I could do without the first party contributions of either console this gen. Nintendo is the only one making good first Party games anymore.
