For people who didn't buy this AND Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, why you'd pick Oblivion over Obscur is beyond me. We should all know by now that Bethesda games are rarely in a fit state on launch.
The French release meanwhile has just released it's first patch weeks after release and been fantastic. This is the first game they've made.
I really don't understand what all the Oblivion fanfare is about.
It's either Blue Prince or Clair Obscur and I'm going for the latter.
It's something Square Enix should have done with final fantasy a decade ago and will be kicking themselves.
It manages to combine difficulty ramps like Souls games with great turn based strategy, many said turn based games were gone (except Pokemon) because they were boring. Couldn't have been more wrong.
He's right. Look at the movie industry, people yawn and ignore movies that are too similar. Every now and then a really diverse masterpiece comes out of nowhere.
We should be looking for that in gaming. Find different dynamics, change up a genre, have multiple USPs not just "it's a battle royale with different character abilities than that last game".
I think it was pretty polished at launch, Bioware want ME5 to be pushed through now so this was never going to get DLC.
As a game I enjoyed it, but it's not worth the full retail price and it was not a surprise it dropped twice in price in two separate PSN sales before the end of the year.
This didn't happen do no spoilers but I stand by my idea that Rook should have been killed halfway through and your Inquisitor brought in. The team dynamic would shift and some characters would actively dislike the change.
We didn't get much infighting or dark turns etc and Rook was essentially a therapist for some parts of the game. Origins was great, Inquisition was ok (apart from certain parts), and Veilguard is good but lacks enough twists to make it really memorable. People like character development, even if said character becomes dislikeable. We didn't get enough of that imo.

Re: Yoshida: I Played The Last of Us Online and It Was Great
@wiiware
Absolutely! That's what I wanted. The multiplayer experience was great. I don't want more live service games.
Top MP experiences in the last 20 years:
Helldivers, TLOU, Watch Dogs (hide & seek) / AC when they did the same thing.
I don't just want CoD, EAFC and GTA online to be the MP staples. Some added innovation in this space would be great.

@Oram77 Fairly easy to see why, when it had the Chinese population and State backing it.
