Re: Talking Point: Will You Be Buying The Last of Us 2?

Hordak

Until Sony tells us exactly how PS4 games will work with PS5, I will be waiting. Will we be provided with a patch that completely opens the game up for PS5 or will we have to buy an alternate version/disc to get the best possible version once PS5 is out? That's what I want to know on this (and Ghost of Tsushima).

Re: Poll: Are You Happy with the Way Sony Is Handling the PS5 Reveal?

Hordak

I personally don't care about all of the "hype" surrounding these reveals. It's not like the PS5 is some big secret that is coming out of nowhere. I would wager that most people want to know when they can buy it and how much it will cost. Nothing else really matters, in the grand scheme of things.

Re: Game of the Decade: The Near Misses That Deserve a Mention

Hordak

I think God of War was a step backward. The kid was irritating, the narrative was too slow, the enemies were boring and lacked interesting design, Kratos' axe was slow and not fun to use, his blades were massively underpowered, the boss fights were nothing compared to those in the Greek Mythology world, traveling by boat was a slog, and the valkyrie battles were unenjoyable.

...but it looked really good.

Re: Wolfenstein: Youngblood - What Happened Bethesda?

Hordak

I just finished this game last night and I too don’t care for the RPG aspects. I constantly felt like I was forced to grind XP instead of moving forward to see what was next. The hub (catacombs) completely ruins the pacing for me and I’m afraid they are now planning the same for Doom Eternal - it was announced that the Slayer will have a place that he hangs out.

All of this just screams to me that we need a 4K60 remastered Resistance Trilogy for PlayStation. That was a FPS series done right.

Re: E3 2019: Konami's Special Announcement Was a TurboGrafx16 Mini Console

Hordak

The TG-16 mini honestly almost won E3 in my books. My Turbo Duo broke many years ago and I’m more than happy to revisit a solid year or so of my childhood with this new release. My fingers and toes are crossed that M2 is handling the ports.

The only other Konami announcement that I would have jumped for joy over are remastered versions of the Castlevania Lords of Shadow games. I think they get u deserved hatred but I found them to be amazingly enjoyable for what they were.

Re: Ace Combat 7 Multiplayer Shown Off in New Trailer

Hordak

@Eldritch certain aspects do look fantastic, don’t get me wrong. I just feel like a lot of it has low res textures that look really outdated. Great lighting, but the plane models aren’t very impressive to my eyes. At any rate, I’m sure the game will still be fun to play. It’s just funny to me how the last two generations have focused on looks rather than how fun it is. I’m a sucker for that mentality as well, apparently.

Re: Bungie Splits from Activision, Takes the Rights to Destiny

Hordak

Destiny was and is (to me) boring and lifeless. Then again, I never found Halo to be very appealing either, so I shouldn't be too surprised.

Unreal Tournament, Resistance, Time Splitters, etc. were all more entertaining and felt like the creators actually tried to be creative.

Re: Sony Made a Bad Decision to Skip E3 2019, Says Pachter

Hordak

Wait, isn't Pachter supposed to talk about how Nintendo is finished and they had better sell out or start putting their games on the Xbox? I'm beginning to think "Industry Analyst" is another name for "Video Game Weatherman". He can literally say whatever crap he wants and it doesn't matter.
