Remedy out here showing Insomniac how to make a proper 3rd person narrative focused action adventure game. I will be waiting to buy Resonant until the physical release drops but it is pre ordered. And to be clear I love Spiderman games but Wolverine is a big step down.
Oh wow another 3rd person melee action game in a fantasy setting from a Chinese dev…. I really hope whoever was running PS’ China hero project and deciding what games to publish has gotten fired after Lost Soul Aside and how development on Convallaria is at a standstill
@AhmadSumadi don’t hate it but it’s overrated as ****. Like I said the people complaining about Wolverine should have been complaining and talking about Horizon. It’s the most generic AAA hodgepodge of genres and does none of them amazingly well.
Not hated enough. When talking about the over done “Sony style” game with Wolverine when it’s horizon that’s the main culprit. The most generic AAA mismatch of genres that don’t do anything truly amazing. Horizon is the game that the Wolverine haters think Wolverine is.
I hope guerrilla really pick a lane with horizon 3 and stick with it. The hate Wolverine has been getting deserves to be directed entirely to horizon. Horizon is the most generic AAA franchise PS has.
How does Herman Hulst still have a job? Morons like him and Matt Booty not only still have a job but have failed their ways upwards. All of the millions if not billions wasted on live service ***** that could have had half of the amount fund half a dozen new 2nd party games while still making some live service games. Idiots.
Just like with everything online nowadays think the criticisms of Wolverine are missing the forest for the trees on what are more legitimate issues with the “Sony Style Game”. Wolverine looks great and will probably deliver, but I do think just like this entire Gen for the most part Sony is definitely over reliant on this style of game as their true heavy hitters. This is not to say they don’t have wider genres of games. Obviously Tokon and Saros just came out this year but they are the exception to the norm and especially with Saros it was a side game and not treated as a high profile game. Also think the heavy push into Live Service games took away funding that could have been used to fund a wider range of 2nd party titles in more unique genres. Sony doesn’t have any single player fps or first person games in general. Sony does not have any good rpg team of any kind in its ranks.
I’m sold and the previews looks good, my only worry is that it devolves into ability spam that Spiderman 2 can devolve into or even Rangarok. I look at game in the action adventure genre that offer more meaningful thoughtful combat like Star Wars Jedi Survivor or the ghost games. Those games I feel like do a much better job of making the player have to meaningfully engage with the combat systems. That being said I’m not stupid and realize there’s only so much you can do with Wolverine but I just think offer some that more then just hold down L2 and spam face buttons.
Interesting seeing Sega sign for the publishing rights after the studio got dumped by Netease. Seems like this game is being sent out to die by releasing in October and that close to Phantom blade 0. I have said before that with Netease dumping these studios I think that there’s an opportunity for publishers to sign already partially made games and just test the waters. I still think that this model could be a boon for PlayStation, their 2nd party deals this gen have fallen out of the floor in favor of the live service model. PlayStation might have the opportunity to get some great pr by signing these teams to a publishing deal while also getting some more of the older ps3 style energy of games. You can bet your money that Sega won’t touch Nagoshi and gangs of dragon since they have RGG but i could see PlayStation coming in being the good guys signing a deal to publish the game and get more 2nd party games when a lot of the fans have been wanting more single player games. I realize it’s not as simple as just signing the teams but just think this would be an interesting idea.
@Gaymer90 can’t fault you for being skeptical of fable. Yes I am well aware of how long that ip has been gone and Xbox’s wish washy nature as a whole, but I’m more so looking at the potential reach of Fable. Playground while being just a racing studio in the past is still arguably Xbox’s best studio and everything from the gameplay of fable it seems like it’ll live up to the hype. I also think of all the games that are coming out in February Laufey will be just fine. I more so looking at a game like Metro being hurt. I just think that out of all of Xbox’s first party games this is the one that seems like it can live up too the hype.
This isn’t really shocking. Fable is a big AAA game and not just that Playground had to build this game out. For all signs it seems like it’s money well spent. Also will say I think some PS fans (no one really on this website but in general) are underestimating how big fable could be.
This game is gonna tap into the mainstream audience. The beta just felt right and vs say a game like invincible vs which is a game I love but this game is just fully AAA in the best way. I also love the approach of 2nd party live service game that PlayStation is taking with this. Have a unique experience and targeting a specific crowd of players.
@Swandivetotheasphalt yes it’s only on ps5 where they are directly competing on but with fable being a full multiplatform game you have to take the other platforms into consideration. Also will say separate from that Fable if it reviews well and all the other games in this window review well Fable will be fine. Sad as it is for me to say think Metro will be hurt most by this.
@darylb24 assuming all games are great and review well Laufey will be fine, with it being a ps5 exclusive it’s going to dominate sales on ps5. Fable might be hurt with ps5 sales but assuming both games review well Fable is going to do very well on PC.
Love too see it. Santa Monica is out here running laps around Naughty Dog releasing more than one game this generation. While I was hoping Santa Monica was making a new ip at least this is a spin off with some unique gameplay aspects with Faye. Also kinda cool seeing Xbox’s best studio and PlayStation’s best studio going head to head in the same month.
Not shocked but still is disappointing. Think Fable actually has a shot at being fully on disc considering it doesn’t have a internet required or Content download required
I was and am still overall skeptically optimistic about this game but will say on my personal most anticipated list after reading some of the previews and certain gameplay mechanics. Still think choosing to release this game in September is adding unnecessary pressure too it. It going gold this far ahead is a good sign. Hope it ends up being so good it can hold its own in the oncoming onslaught in September.
@Rich33 good RPGs make it so your choices matter and you can’t do everything in on play through. You said you don’t like branching storylines and that’s literally one of the main things that makes an rpg a rpg. Go play other genres of games.
@Oram77 mean across all previews it stated that what truly is exceptional is the dialogue and choice and writing which is very hard to show off in just 8 minutes. But overall your energy is spot on.
Always excited for a well previewed game and hope it is very good…but on the other hand why is everything in September?!?! Dawnwalker, Onimusha, Wolverine, Control Resonant, orbitals. Include Zero Company and Galactic Racer as well. Just why.
Hope the physical at least has the single player mode fully on disc but after yesterday I’ll take anything I can get for the next year and a half if I’m being honest.
@ThePlaystationStan that’s not going to happen for a long time. My physical copy of games will last for a good amount of time. And I will absolutely adjust…..to being fully on pc with maybe a switch 2 game that’s fully on card. PC is growing and this will drive a decent amount of people to pc. No price for online, way more options and sales, and get the vast majority of games. Even more so now that most 3rd parties have stopped doing timed exclusives.
