I wanted to be interested, but the main character looked so douchey, for a bunch of Japanese developers, why not offer gender selection? Those stupid headphones looked like a Japanese interpretation of what they think Xbox owners are. Slap in the face really.
Development was going super slow while Platinum was pumping out game after game for other platforms. Platinum isn't a big studio, so it makes someone wonder what they were doing with Scalebound. Likely very little. Maybe if Platinum was more serious about the game, it would not have been cancelled. If Microsoft wanted the to shoehorn in multiplayer, that was a mistake too. Should have been a focused single player experience.
That said, Scalebound was a brand new IP game for Xbox One, some of you maybe asking why it didn't look good to you, that's because what you saw was all prototype gameplay and Scalebound did peak my interest at the time because it was "How to Train your Dragon" only in Japan style.
