@wildcat_kickz actually its usually just the side missions that are goofy with occasional silliness injected into the actual plots (although 7 does it a bit more) Most of the stories delve into political or criminal conspiracies. In my opinion Y0 and 7 have the better stories
I couldn't get into on PC, Xbox but the incentive is there to buy it for PlayStation. The price is kind of ridiculous though and I think renaming could have been a smarter move as people will probably get turned off when they read a title that sounds like it's 2 years old
Could've played CoD on GamePass but lost all interest in the franchise for multiple reasons- busted achievements, activist crap, stale formula, decline in writing, etc. The last few before MS made the purchase were total duds. If they can't get me to play for "free", good luck convincing me to pay for it
It does look off as others said. Part of it is the palette but I think it's just the motion of the character, the acrobatics, etc. i really enjoyed Dead Cells and adore SotN but this feels like the generic Mirrors of Fate game
Better than last month for sure. I just hate when I buy a game I had yet to play (LotF) and then it gets offered free. I wish they let us pick 3 out of a select updated each month
@get2sammyb I really hope it gets fixed. I was very excited for this game since the old trailers. While expected it to be a bit sharper, it's still a very pretty game but those controls were something else. I only played the into up until the main starts off again by the river but for a game that's supposed to be so comprehensive, I found it odd that they don't even really explain much of the most basic control elements
What's the point in rebranding a name that's already established? Microsoft does this stuff all the time and unless you're savvy or familiar with the product or service in question, it just adds to confusion to most consumers.
Got the email. no thanks. Looks lame, doesn't appeal to me whatsoever. Give me good single player games without all the messaging. That's why RE sells and this stuff gets ridiculed- if people even want to give it that much of their attention.
It's supposed to be a game and not a Dove shampoo commercial
Kind of confused. I saw some other article showing how to toggle it on in the console and game and see neither options present, nor any additional updates
Good. I hate these tacked on multiplayer modes slapped on that try coercing you into a boring grind the first few weeks a game comes out or else you get left behind with trophies and achievements
Whike I don't condone certain behaviors I really do not care about all this selective outrage. A portion of the same people signing petitions for a game they wouldn't buy anyway and think an actor should be cancelled will go protest for reforms to let off people guiltier of much worse crimes.
Go figure it's whiners on Blue sky to boot. It's clear many reviewers are not only shills but also shoehorning agendas. While a review system would be helpful, I've already been around long enough to see the warning signals of the industry grooms of the stool and shoe shiners
@Wardenknight133 That's kind of a stretch. I'm not really defending it but I'm not offended by it either. Just to say it's the worst trailer ever is a bit dramatic.
If I had a choice, I wish it was the live action ones SNK would have back in the day
Is it a bad trailer because of the Ai and being outraged about AI stuff is the trend? I've seen much worse so would it matter if they put the leg work into it or cut corners? Honestly the game characters come to life have been somewhat fun to watch on YouTube, imo.
I tried to buy their official gaming headsets twice- the inzone buds and the PlayStation branded buds basically just for use with PS5/Portal. Both had connectivity issues where in one ear piece would refuse to sync no matter what I tried. For the price and the branding it should have delivered out of the box.
While I hate most of the UbiSlop out now, I wouldn't mind replaying this game. The survival mode was a brutal blast but if it's a re-releaae, I hope they cut out the other PVP stuff
Have all the Horizon games but never played all but the first 10 minutes of one of them. That intro bored me to sleep and don't care about the character at all.
I would have preferred to play as a cutey with no back story in a rip-off game than a frumpy hairball with a long-winded one as long as the quality was there

This. It's clear while distinguishing itself. It explains the function. It already became ubiquitous
