@ChrisDeku wow a quick google told me you're right, been years since I played 3&1 but I don't remember it just being three classes 😂 cheers mate
Guess I gotta watch the gameplay vid now to see what's up
Rather disappointing.
Lack of (stable) 60fps, average exploration and good old shimmering between walls make this into sth not quite the premiere next gen experience I thought it would be.
The game also has a ton of minor annoyances, not being able to run in the settlements is mind boggling for instance.
This one area in Dhalmekia looks especially bland, straight up gave me ps2 ptsd despite not playing on the thing haha
Currently about 72% in according to the tracker after 40sth hours.
It's def got good things going for it, especially the blood splatters in cutscenes after fights is something I can appreciate.
And it is definitely very flashy, eikon fights can be very sick.
But for all the gold coming out of japan this is one of the few franchises I can not be bothered with it seems.
Will forever wonder why people like these games so much.
Anyway this about sums it up:
@Frmknst word, if anything vastly inferior as well.
Extremely short runtime and easy bosses, main game at least.
Lovecraft influence wasn't nearly as vast as people make it out to be either, big missed opportunity of a game.
Glad they haven't remastered/remade it, the lack of sales reports on it speaks for it self.
@ztpayne7 true that, I'm not gonna play solo so the host only save progress doesn't bother me. I want to ask though, is your co-op gameplay stable? Me and my friend (europe & canada) are both on fibre but I get so much clipping and slight delays it's weird.
@GeeEssEff don't even know how it's factored tbh, I played three matches, got 30 kills in the last one but like 15 altogether in the other two. Don't even have that 10k damage trophy but I got one level up as well. Wonder how long it's gonna take the average person to get it to max (50 I believe)
Was watching this earlier today and honestly not a bad move, gameplay in the first sucked and was a big detractor from what was a really strong game all around imo.
I don't really like the look of it but I'm assuming they'll still fine tune it + anything is better than the first game's 'combat'
@BIG3 yh that's certainly a shame then, was actually just looking at its storepage and some of these screenshots are super nice damn But the half naked characters kinda take away from it for me as well 🥲
Finally some news from them, they've been on this for ages 😭 Glad to know we're finally getting at least a title for the devs of one of the best rpgs from last gen 😮💨
@SamMR kind of reminds me of Spiders. Really interesting story and world building but just bad game mechanics. Their games makes me appreciate AAA games.
If they make a new IP I wonder where they'll go with it. Don't suppose we get a futuristic title, we've seen some form of medieval europe inspired stuff, also got Japan.
@Tomato_Goose nah I agree. GOW is mad unadulterated fun, I'll never understand the halo hype. Actually quite liked infinite and played its mp for a while but it's nowhere near my fav ever fps games. Sadly the old ones are outdated. On another note, granted Doom and Wolfenstein are already on ps as is but do that many people not want a new game in the series on ps yo 😭 Also not even a mention of Dishonored wtf
@Enigk sounds like a pipedream.
How would you even begin to prosecute someone over some mean words they said online 😂
@Blaze215 I could see that being cooked up by their pr team 💯
