Wait, Open World, Sci-Fi Action RPG ELEX Is Out on PS4 Tomorrow?

Any game which apparently allows me to fly around via fart power is A-OK in my book.

Oh my, I tried forcing myself to play risen on a number of occasions, unplayable.

I honestly don't know how mid-tier studios manage to survive this generation. Between indie titles and actual AAA heavy-hitters, who really favours this type of effort? Must be real tough for the developers to even capture people's attention.

I only came here to beg you never to start headlines with 'Wait" again. I can think of few internet writing-style trends more infuriating at the moment.

Sincerely,

Me

The concept looks interesting, I will check for more details, but is it a good idea to release In October and on the same day of Gran Turismo and South Park?

i can honestly say this didn't slip under my Radar!

However, it was never on it in the first place!!!

Its not exactly done anything thus far to force its way onto my 'wanted' list

HEH HEH HEH

@ShogunRok Aaaaaaaaaarrrrrghhh!!!!!

The combat in this game looks like something you'd see in an MMO or one of those boring Early Access survival games. Not very impressed.

Maybe the story and characters can save it.

@fchinaski My thoughts exactly as soon as read the article.

PSLS gave this a 5/10.
So it's off to a promising start.

Wow that game that was announced on the E3 conference? Anthem? Oh wait...it's not! Meh x)

@Eternallover21 Not the only one but I can see it's an average game with major flows. I will get it eventually mind you. But I'll wait for the usual patches first. It will be on discount by Christmas.

LOL, makes Destiny 2 look like Game of the Year. Can't believe people are still making this last gen stuff.

Will play the heck out of this once it's on sale for $7.99

Eurogamer.it gave this a 5/10. Game still bugged even after 5gb of patches...

Looks like The Technomancer 2.

@PaperyWhiteBoy smell my cheese you mother

Looks incredibly janky

There's a giant robot fight tomorrow too.

Like, real, actual Giant Robots are going to fight on October 17th and that completely seems to be flying under the radar. Team USA's "Eagle Prime" vs Team Japan's "Kuratas MK2".

There must be something about this date that is just... letting news go undetected.

I played through Bound By Flame twice so maybe this will seem okay.

Not interested at all even if it was free on PS+ wouldn't download it.

@JoeBlogs As a writer, yes. I can't help it. I'm aware there are far more important things in this world to concern myself with, but the infantilisation of language, along with the hyperbole rampant on the internet are things that distress me nonetheless. Still, kudos to Robert for trolling me in such good humour!

Please review this game, Im really want to play it just can't afford at the moment, doesn't seem to be much new game play out there yet

@Bad-MuthaAdebisi Do not get me started with the Partridge quotes!

@JoeBlogs Well though my problem's writing related, it's really more a personality thing. "Wait, Open World, Sci-Fi Action RPG ELEX Is Out on PS4 Tomorrow?" isn't a terribly constructed sentence, I know. It's more that it's an example of how more and more of what we're fed online is crouched in an extreme of one kind or another. Everything is 'breathtaking' or 'stunning', or else 'horrific' or 'vile' etc. There's very little middle ground, a dwindling presence of nuance. And as I see it there's a direct correlation between this development and the similar extremes we're seeing in politics and peoples' attitudes to one another. Extremes are governing all right now. So to put this in the context of 'Wait...', it's used to inject nonexistent drama into a heading that doesn't need it. Now I get that it's a tough old game out there for sites like PS. Lots of competition to bat away and whatever method works, etc. But one of the things I appreciate about PS is how adult and balanced it is. Comment discussions are generally polite and respectful of others' opinions, even when they differ, and the staff even acknowledge when they're churning out filler articles, click-bait etc. But for me that's damaged when internet writing trends like this are adopted, because it makes everything read as if produced by someone in the early throes of puberty, a bunch of school kids gossiping in the playground. Most likely that makes me sound like some kind of snob, but, well, so what? I'd rather that than have every site I visit look like IGN, Cinemablend or somewhere, where most if not all headings begin in the vein of 'Wait...!', or 'Why you need to know so and so...' or 'The real reason, etc etc.'
I'm just saying this site's better than that, that's all, as are plenty of others who follow the same trends. Just my two pence.

@JoeBlogs Too true. And I wouldn't go so far as to say I'm annoyed per se, but since my comment attracted some attention I felt I had to explain myself, and once I get going it's generally hard to stop

As a fan of Gothic 1 + 2, which are two of my favorite games of all time. I did have Elex on my radar hoping this game would give me a feeling of something special that the two Gothic games had given me so long ago...

I missed the risen series as Im not a big fan of pirate based games... (played assassins creed up to 3) so I do not know about them. However if anyone hasn't played Gothic I would advise it to anyone.

@Eternallover21

To say it all I bought it today. Eventually I ll wait for the patches if any and play in a month or so. As you say support developers day one especially small ones
